Our Week

A (sort-of) goodbye bbq for the Hammons. 

They may not be going far, but we've been spoiled to just walk across the street to see these great friends.

 

 Sunday evening with my siblings.

The Tulip Festival. 

(Hard to belive this is the only picture I'm posting?)

 Wesley and Jack's first tee ball game. 

So cute, and totally better than soccer.

 Jack's preschool field trip to the Aquarium.

 And a haircut.  NOT a planned one.

Super Reader

 Today was Wesley's reading rewards party at preschool.  He earned this awesome gold medal for being a super reader.  Afterwards he kept saying things to me like "Can you believe I got this medal? I'm freaking out!"
and "This is as good as a trophy!".

Jack is going to attend this same preschool next year and can't wait.  They had an open house the other day and Jack was a little nervous to go, but after we got there he was having so much fun I had to force him to leave. 

2 hours

Lucky us.  Mimi had a layover in Salt Lake for just a few short hours today, woohoo!

Getting ready for TeeBall

Allison and I took the kids to the baseball fields yesterday to get them ready for the start of tee ball in two weeks. 
Wesley was totally excited, he would hit the ball and run all three bases like he hit a home run.

 Jack mostly played in the dirt.

 And the girls spent the majority of their time on the blanket eating snacks.

 It's going to be fun watching them at their games.

Here Comes Peter Cottontail...

We had the best Easter Weekend.

Saturday morning was spent at the Brinkerhoff's Easter Egg Hunt.  There were tons of people, but a thousand eggs!  The kids had a great time and the weather was perfect.

After naps we met back up with Matt, Michele, and the kids at Temple Square.  I love Temple Square in the spring with everything in bloom, it was spectacular.  Plus, it was nice to spend a little bit more of the day focusing on Christ and the real reason we celebrate Easter.

Wesley was up bright and early Easter morning, ready to follow the Easter Bunny's clues to find the easter baskets.  We made him wait until 7:00 to wake up Avery and Jack, awful parents right?! 

The kids played with their new toys right up till the last second and then we were off to church in our Sunday best. 

We spent the afternoon with Chris and Lory.  She always prepares a fun easter egg hunt for the kids and we're totally grateful for the candy!

 Avery was in love with this princess tiara the minute she found it and wore it the rest of the afternoon.

After a yummy dinner, we were off to dessert at Reed and Shanna's house.  Of course with Shanna being such an awesome cook, I ate an entire second dinner!  And I really couldn't skip the dessert because she made creme brulee, my favorite.  And they had new baby chicks!

 So much fun in one weekend!
