Easter

We had a great Easter this year. When the boys woke up the Easter Bunny had left a lot of eggs around the house for them to find. After they found the eggs, they went through their Easter baskets to see what goodies they had. We went to church and after we went to Andrea and Dan's house for some Jensen festivities. We had dinner and then the little kids had another Easter egg hunt in the backyard. Needless to say, they received a lot of candy that day and I think Carter ate his all by the next day.

Landan's idea of cleaning

We were doing our usual Saturday cleaning, and Landan wanted to use the 409 that Carter was using. I nicely told him that he couldn't and that was that. I few minutes later I noticed him squirting the chair with something. He had gone into our shower and taken out the shower cleaner to clean with. He is a very resourceful and smart child!

Landan's favorite thing!

I'm not kidding when I say that Landan's favorite thing to do is shovel snow. He could go for hours if I let him. He's very protective of "his" shovel and if his brothers touch it, he'll take them down.

Sledding at Soldier Hollow

Every year Heber/Midway have a community sledding night. This was probably our 4th time sledding this year. Kaleb was having too much fun with friends that he wouldn't stop for a picture. The other boys would and how cute are they?

Landan in True Character

I never take pictures of my kids bums but this was so funny I had to. I had just changed Landan's diaper and he decided to go outside to pee. Well, his idea of peeing is standing and making a "pussst" sound with his mouth. Of course he had to put in his cowboy boots because he can't go out in the freezing cold without them. I guess his bum can handle the cold weather better than his feet.

Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point

Kaleb had a day off of school, so we decided to go to the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point. If you have never been there I would say it's a must see. They had so much fun. They also have these great 3-D movies and all three boys were mesmerized (that's saying a lot because Landan hardly holds still for anything).

Ahoy! Carter turned 4!

Carter decided that he wanted a pirate party this year. First, we made these fun invitations and rolled them up and put them in root beer bottles. It really turned out cute. He wanted cupcakes instead of a cake, so we made a tower of pirate cupcakes. When the kids first arrived we had them make telescopes to use on a treasure hunt. The treasure hunt was a hit and at the end they got a great "booty" of candy and toys (Kaleb read all the clues since he's the only that can read). They ate their cupcakes, Carter opened his presents and the rest of the time they played with all their fun new stuff. I have to admit, I even had fun. His friends that came were: Mckay Ritchie, Lauren Hall, Cecily Rowland, Annie Willey, Bo Lively, Luke Lundberg and Sage Danley.

"Jack and Jill"

In December, Carter had nursery rhyme day at preschool. He and his friend Annie (whom he says he is going to marry) went as Jack and Jill. He also memorized "Jack jumped over the candlestick."
