BYU African American Children's Fair

We went to the AA children's fair for the first time ever and had a blast! They had so many activities for the kids to do, like face painting, balloon making, a puppet show, games and prizes, and so much more. They also provided free snacks and entertainment. The kids didn't want to leave and we will be going back next year for sure!






This is a random picture I thought I would toss in. This is one of the FIRST times we thought winter was over and were surprised with more snow. The kids made a bucket head snowman! haha

St. George Trip

One quick shot of some cute outfits from Christmas that my brother and sister in law got the kids! Ready to go to church.


In the car to go to St. George (to do our taxes). ; ) Doesn't everyone travel somewhere warm to do taxes? haha Nicole's already pulling her hair out.


Our fish! If we stay in a hotel it means 2 things to these kiddos: Cheetos and SWIMMING!








We went and hiked some of the red rocks. Natalie found a little hole to rest in.



King of the mountain!


The crack. It's hard to tell, but that small silver of light at the top of the image is the space you have to fit through to get to the top. Crazy, there is no way I would attempt that. 


It was still a little chili there, but warm enough for lunch outside.

Snowed In

This recent string of bad weather reminded me of the huge storm we got this year. We got dumped on, a few feet of snow. No one could get out to go to work, and school was cancelled ( a first in about 20 years I think). 

Jeremy doing double duty, shoveling and calling work to say he's staying home. Silly boy, yes he's wearing shorts!


Looking down the street to the end of the cul de sac


Looking down the street the other way

Halloween night, freezing cold and ready to get some candy. Thanks Steve and debbie for the costumes.


It was snowing that night and soooo cold, the kids didn't last long, but they did get a lot of candy!


Hee Haw Farm last Fall

We went to Hee Haws with some good friends last fall and the kids had a blast, it might need to be a yearly tradition! 
Kai and Natalie jumping in the straw pit.

Kai was fascinated with the chickens! 


Daddy and the kids on a tractor ride. Nicole was screaming so he had to jump in too.


Look at my cute farm family!


Kai and Natalie wanted to be buried in the corn
