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.

St. Patty's Day

Just wanted to show off the leprachaun trap the kids and I made this year. He reads the sign telling him not to climb the ladder, homemade out of sticks we found outside, and naturally he wants to climb up. When he reaches for the silver, the paper top falls under his weight and he is trapped at the bottom of our wonderfully decorated oatmeal can!!
We ALMOST caught him, but he was a little too clever for us. Elle thinks maybe he made stairs out of the gold coins he left us (chocolate filled :) ) and climbed out. We'll get him next year, though!
