A Break in Spring

By Sarah

Hubby had to work the rest of spring break so the children and I had a week at home with no school and dad gone during the day.  M went to horse camp 2 days and had play dates with S. and D.  K went to the dentist and had a couple play dates with J. and got to see Beauty and the Beast in the theater with Mom & Grandma.  She really liked it!   D went to indoor soccer twice & Pokemon and Star Wars morning camps at the local gym and worked on Cub Scout stuff with Grandma.  N got us invited to another wonderful park for a play date -- Niwot Children's Park & we highly recommend it!  We also rented Moana from Redbox Monday night and loved it -- we listened to the soundtrack all spring break.


 I should have brought the selfie stick to the movie theater.  lol.
 N was thrilled to go shopping in the basement for new clothes and shoes.  She especially likes the idea of matching her baby doll.
While D and N and I went to the grocery store, K and M got in the April Fool's Day spirit on Saturday.  Turns out it take two entire rolls of Scotch tape to trap a brother.

The week was finished off with watching lots and lots of General Conference & then playing at the park as a family Sunday night and M loosing her very first tooth!  She was so excited.  Now it's back to school until the end of May!

Happy 250th Birthday

By Sarah
Please enjoy the following sunrise hike photos courtesy of Michelle.  You will not find me leaving the house at 3:00am to hike with friends but I am proud of my middle children when they do. Can an Independence Day blog post be complete without some time at the ball fields?  Natalie has her final tournament of the season and it was bittersweet to see the girls play so well but knowing this was the last chance they would have together before some of the girls (N included) aged out. I will always appreciate these coaches, players, and their families for truly making something special.  Pool play day was sunny and hot. My alarm went off at 5:30am to be at 7:00am warm ups an hour away. The first game was close but didn’t end the way we would have liked. The second game the girls took a solid beating and then after leading most of the third game, it ended in a tie. Natalie did some great work in the outfield and knows how to make those pitchers work when she hits those foul ba...

Precious Pumpkin

By Sarah
Our Halloween pictures finally made it to the computer. I won't state the name, but let's just say we know a certain 15-month-old who likes to hide things, especially if they are small & silver like a memory card reader. (: Oh look, here she is now, dressed up as a pumpkin fairy! And check out the super neat pumpkin Danny carved. We actually had neighbors make the effort to come compliment him before trick-or-treating began! I have never experienced a Halloween where families hang out on the porch to hand out candy the entire night! I just can't get over how wonderful the weather has been this fall. If there weren't long term consequences, I could really like global warming. Here's the cute little girl helping to hand out candy. She was a huge hit with the teenage trick-or-treaters. My favorite costume of the night was a guy dressed up as a kissing booth. When Dan asked him if that was working for him he replied, "I got a kiss from a 6-year-old ...

Some Explaining

By Sarah
Well, the time has come. We finally got the gutts to take an intentional photograph of what is soon to be a new addition to the family. Surprised? Well, if you haven't seen me in person lately, you should be! And yes, Dan & I were quite surprised too! A couple months after we brought Danny J. home from the hospital, I noticed how much more tired I was waking up in the middle of the night with him than I was when Kaelah was a newborn. I kept asking myself, is there really that big of a difference between ages 26 & 28? I didn't think anything of my period coming late b/c both Dan & I were complaining of nausea. Eventually I went to our family practice doctor & said, "I'm either pregnant or something is wrong with me that I want you to fix!" We ran the blood work & called the fertility specialist after he told me the rapid test came back VERY pink. From then we did the same thing we had done before. Held our breath & took LOTS of medi...
