Easter 2013

Saturday Morning we walked with neighbors to the community Easter Egg hunt. I took charlie to the infant group and Brent took Jackson to the "preschool" aged group. Unfortunately he didn't get any pictures but here are a few of charlie before. He did pretty well- and won 3 prizes. Jackson on the other hand FROZE-later telling us all the people "frightened" him- but fortunately ending up with 4 prizes.

Jackson colored some easter eggs for preschool- and we did a few together later on.

 Saturday evening we went to my parents for an easter egg hunt there. Each boy found a prize of 3 dollars and of course numbers of eggs with candy in them.

 Daddy and Charlie played on the swings

Easter morning the boys looked through their baskets and wore their matching Easter shirts to church!

  I made some easter jars (make bars out of them) for Brent to take to his home teachers, and our neighbors. I made a batch to see how it would turn out when they made it and I will say they are pretty good!

 We had Grandma Grandpa and Netta over for dinner (HAM) mmm!! Jackson was so sweet and told us about how he learned about Jesus being dead and than alive. His class did a thing where Jackson laid under the table (pretending to be Jesus in the tomb) Angels moved the rock to block him in, than they counted to 3 days, and than the angels moved the rock and Jackson (Jesus) Came out and was a live. So amazed at this little boy and so great full for his primary teachers.

After Church. Mom and dad in purple, boys yellow!

Grandma and Grandpas Birthday's!

For Grandmas birthday 21st. We went to her house and surprised her with a brownie cake. They were leaving the next day to Idaho falls so we didn't have a huge party. But the following week on my dad's birthday we went to Texas roadhouse. So fun to watch them celebrate together!

 Grandpas party was after the easter egg hunt!

Happy Birthday!!!

Our newest Family member

 Brent Has Always wanted a dog since we have been married. When we moved we discussed getting one, but decided probably would wait because we wanted our yard to stay nice. Well For the last week I had been thinking alot about having a family friend. So I started looking at the animal shelter ( I didn't say anything to brent). I found "Sans" on the website, he was so cute so i just had to tell Brent. Of coarse after telling him about my thought,s that was the green light. We went to the animal shelter the next day to find a dog.

We first looked at Sans. He was a puppy "3 months old"- and he was really HYPER! So we decided to look some more. We took about 7 other older dogs on walks around the pound. After thinking about it we decided to wait and we left. We were on our way home when Jackson started crying because he wanted the puppy. (Sans) We decided to turn around and go look at him again. Sure enough when we visited with him this time, he had calmed down a bit. He laid on my lap and was a very sweet dog. That's when he became a part of our family! 

Here he is- ROCKY - formally known as "sans". Jackson picked out the name

Boise Aquarium

For preschool we went to the Aquarium! We had never been so this was a pretty fun field trip! Jackson was a little nervous to touch the fish but Charlie was fearless.

 Charlie kept trying to climb in with the star fish

Were excited to take daddy so he can see all the cool fish/ocean creatures!

Mass Random fun!

Charlie always claims his place on my lap and loves to eat just like this.

 Lego time

 You will see many pictures where jackson has found our phones and taken pictures of himself! I can't resist posting them! He loves it and always says. " You know why I took these pictures.....because I love you"
