bicycles

Both boys are now terrorizing our street on only TWO wheels! A few weeks ago Logan spotted our cute neighbor girl (age 4) riding her bike without training wheels. Logan insisted that if she could do it, then he could too! So off they came and off he went. A week or so later Bronson decided that if Logan was big enough than so was he! so----we took them off and he has been needing a bit more help. He does great-mostly- he just has a hard time starting by himself. Finally, today, he seemed to really get it and was zooming around like a pro! YAY!

Dinosaurs ROCK!

Our cutie boys showing off some of their dinosaur art work!

Cute, yes?!

Smile!

Okay, now do whatever you want!

Easter Fun

We had a wonderful Easter here. At the last minute we decided to have an egg hunt with our neighbors, and it was such a blast! As you can see, we had a bunch of kids there and it just multiplied the excitement for everyone. Plus it was a great opportunity to get to know our neighbors better. We love our neighborhood. We have made so many good friends here, we are truly going to be sad when we move!

Just like last year, I had to make the bunny cupcakes. link.

Happy Easter!

Marshmallow decorating

Edible markers and HUGE marshmallows equals tons of fun! This is a very popular activity at our house.

NCLEX news

Well, he did it! Steve passed the NCLEX! So, now we begin the arduous task of finding a job, and (likely) moving! So if you want us to come and live by you then keep your eyes open for nursing jobs in your area. we would like to stay in Utah, but we realize that we probably won't be able to. We are so excited to have this done and be able to move on!

dino chocolates

I know. I know. You are saying to yourself "oh, great. yet another dinosaur post." I am sorry. I cannot really help it. My boys like dinosaurs, so that is what our activities entail! Today I melted some almond bark, colored it, and put it in frosting bags and let my kids go nuts. They had a great time trying to follow the dino shapes. such concentration!

Dinosaur Museum

We decided to take a trip to our local dinosaur museum a few weeks ago. Overall it was pretty disappointing for my boys. It was mostly dinosaur tracks. But there were a few things that stood out. For one thing Logan was able to identify -from bones- a dinosaur that our "tour guide" couldn't. That was fun! They did like the T-Rex footprint, probably the highlight of the tour.The gift shop took them as long as the tour, looking at everything and trying to decide on just one! Logan has been saving his money and telling me exactly what he wants to purchase at the museum gift shop.

The most exciting part was by far the sandbox. It was just a big sandbox with some 'bones' buried in it, but Logan found part of it right away and spent the next 45 minutes trying to uncover as much as possible. All in all- a success, but really not worth the money!

Bronson's version of past tense

Steve was giving Bronson a bath and suddenly Bronson decided to thrash about wildly. I was talking to Bronson about it afterwards and he says to me: "It's just I really freaked out. I so frowked out!" haha! funny boy!

How many tries . . .

. . . . does it take to get a smiling, decent picture with a 4 year old?

Oh GOSH! I give up!
