Happy St. Patrick's Day!

For St. Patrick's Day today, we woke up and found that the leprechauns had turned our milk green :)  The boys made sure to all wear green so that nobody could pinch them...

St. Patrick's Day socks...

Our attempts at a self-portrait-group-shot:

Since our group shot wasn't working out, Saxy took over the camera and took these next few:

I love this one!

My cute guy with his cute smile!

We made our traditional St. Patrick's day dinner tonight and had Mike over.  We even bought green rolls from Macey's and made m&m cookies for dessert!

A week with Grammie...

My mom was in town for a week in the beginning of March.

It was so fun to spend time with her, and we were so busy the whole time, that we hardly took any pictures.  But, here are a few that we did get:

Left:  Uncle Gregor singing the Lion King song to Baby Gregor.  He's done it for all of my kids when they were born, but I didn't get a picture with him and Dalton yet.

Right:  My mom and baby cakes right before church.  Saxon gave his very first talk in Primary on "The Prophet speaks by revelation".  He did such a good job!

Bottom Right:  Joy made these awesome cupcakes on Sunday.  We couldn't keep my kids away from them.  They LOVED them!  Aren't they cute?

Winter Afternoon

A few random ones of my cute guy:

Brittany came over last week and we walked down to the park.

The sun was shining so we thought it would be nice out.

It was freezing :)

February Art

Here is some of Saxon's artwork for February:

They learned about Groundhog's Day...

Having a healthy heart...

Valentine's Day...

The poem on the left says,

"5 little Valentine's were having a race.

The first one was all covered in lace.

The second one had a funny face.

The third one said 'I love you!'

The fourth one said 'I do too!'

The fifth one was sly as a fox,

He ran the fastest to your Valentine's box!"

The poem on the right says,

"A piece of me I give to you,

I painted the heart to say, 'I love you!'

The heart is you, the hands are me,

To show our love is the best there can be.

I hope you will save it and look back someday,

At the heart I made for you on this special day!"

They learned about President's Day...

And how to take care of their teeth...

Happy February!

Ice Castles

On Saturday night, Jared and Janalee took us to see the Ice Castles in Midway.

A friend in their ward is the one who makes them.

They were incredible!!!

We wanted to get a picture of all of the kids together, but Bridger didn't want to cooperate.  So, all of the kids are calling to him trying to convince him to come back...

Uncle Jared saved the day by picking him up and standing behind Walker holding him up :)

Walker, Morgen, Hyrum, Saxon, & Bridger:

Saxon got a hold of the camera.  I didn't post his pictures because he missed the ice castles in most of them.  This one at least has me, Janalee, Morgen, and Bridger in it:

It was so much fun and really incredible to see!

Thanks guys!!!

Fotofly - Dalton

My sweet Dalton...

Can anyone resist these big blue eye?

Dalton is my sweet, happy baby.

He laughs and smiles and talks all day long.

I'm so in love with my little number 3...

Fotofly - Bridger

Bridger's photo shoot was definitely the most work.

The photographer told me that he hopes that I like them because it was absolutely exhausting for him :)

He had me hide behind something while he was shooting so he could get the kids' attention without them trying to look at me.

During Bridger's turn, I kept hearing him yell "Good!  Good character shot!"

I thought it was going well until Brittany started laughing and said,

" 'Character shot' must be code for Bridger totally doing his own thing because that's what's happening."

It turns out that he did get some good ones of Bridger, but included the "character shots" for me too, and I love them!

They show my little firecracker's personality...
