Noah

We had our friends' little boy Noah come over to play a couple of weeks ago. He lives in St. Louis, so we don't get to see him very often. I was worried he would be a little nervous staying with us for a day, but he walked right in, said he remembered me, and went right to playing. They started playing in the toy kitchen, but soon found themselves outside playing on the swingset and running races. Every time my kids called him Noah, he would look at them and say, "My name is Iron Man." So, yep, we called him Iron Man the rest of the day :) He and Miles got along great, and it made me sad that Noah lives so far away. I am sure they would be best friends if we lived closer. We were glad to have him for the time we did, and hope to play again soon.

Just Some New Pictures

The Magic of Sacrament

My kids all think that after they pass the bread during sacrament meeting, they cover the trays with a cloth, then say a prayer that magically turns the bread into water for us. :) I will tell them what really happens, eventually. Right now I think it's too cute.

I love the way he talks

Miles was reading a Noah's Ark book today and yelled out, "I see 2 rhinonasauruses and 2 canimals!" Translation: 2 rhinoceroses and 2 camels. :)

Morgan's Cultural Program

Fancy Nancy

Morgan has been really into Fancy Nancy lately, so we decided to throw a party! We had fancy dress-up relay races, read some Fancy Nancy books, made bracelets, ate chocolate fondue, and put on a fashion show. It was a blast! I expect we will be having more parties for absolutely no reason at all. :)

Spring Break!

We decided to skip Disneyland this year and just vacation in Vegas. We stayed with family and loved being able to spend time with everyone. It was in the 80's and the kids swam almost every day. We almost didn't come home!

Our first night there, we ate at a place that lets the kids make their own pizza!

We took the kids to the Leid's Discovery Museum where they tried out professions, got in a hurricane tunnel, and played with bubbles. :)

Luckily everyone slept almost the entire way home.
