Spring Break

On Monday, we didn't do anything. On Tuesday morning, I headed up to Payson to see my mom and hang out. On Wednesday, we went to the park in Payson and then went on a hike with my sister, Jill. Then, on Thursday, we had originally planned to go to a Spring Training game but then just stayed at home and lazed around. On Friday, we actually went to a Spring Training game. Man, was it HOT!













Luckily, I came prepared with suntan spray and water. I was actually surprised that the kids lasted 5 innings! They didn't do a whole lot of actually watching the game. I didn't get to watch a whole lot either because I was watching them! So we left at the bottom of the 5th inning to cool off at home. I knew that the planes at Luke Air Force Base were practicing but when I saw this in the sky I was in awe!













So I looked it up on the internet and found out that this is called a C-17. They are those massive cargo planes that transport military vehicles. Sometimes it's used to transport medical patients also. It was awesome! We didn't get a chance to actually make it to the Airshow on Saturday because I already had plans. Although, after church on Sunday we were able to see the Thunderbirds flying right above our house! The boys loved it but it was a little too loud for Hailey.

Preschool Field Trip

On Friday the 13th we went to The Botanical Gardens to see the butterflies! David said that there was a pizza party at school so did not want to join us.













Here is a pic of Matthew as a caterpillar.

I tried to get Hailey to stick her head in ther but she didn't wanna have anything to do with it!

Matthew's 4th Birthday

This year Matthew had a pirate theme to his birthday party. He had LOTS of friends over and they all had a good time!













The cool pirate cake was made by Matthew's Uncle Jared!

Winter Sports

David played coach pitch baseball and was able to play with his friend Cody and cousin Samuel. They had lots of fun! Here is a pic of David's team and then the 3 Musketeers!

Christmas in March?

I never got around to posting pics from Christmas, so here is my attempt to catch-up on mostly everything since the last post. Pics with Santa at our ward Christmas party.















We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas day with my mom because my in-laws were on a cruise! This is a video of one of the presents the kids received. They totally loved it! I think my dad enjoyed it as much as my kids did!

After my in-laws got back we all got together and made mini gingerbread houses.
