Life in April 2013

My mom and I are cub scout leaders together and here we are in our uniforms.

Our Troop with their Pinewood Derby Cars

Daniel proud of the car he and Dave built

We spent Spring Break here at home, but tried to do some fun things while the kids were out of school.  Here we are at a park.

Lizzy is in a phase where she sticks her tongue out every time I try to take a picture!

Nathan is so good to his sisters.  He really dotes on them and helps them with things.

We went to the Lehi Rec Center and tried out their indoor pool. They kids loved it and luckily we now have one closer to home so we can go more often.

Daniel and his crazy face!

Since the kids are getting older we decided to hike the 'Y'. It was quite the effort to get to the top, but once we made it they were so proud.  They point out the 'y' every time we drive by it now.

Another Park

Dane was in town visiting. It was fun to spend time with him while he was here.

Mimi's famous Easter Egg Hunt

My girls absolutely love their cousin Siena. She is their age and quite a character.

Mimi's Easter Egg hunt gets competitive because she buys really great prizes they are all excited about winning.

Easter 2013

We spent Easter at Grandma Jensen's house this year with our Jensen cousins.

There are quite a few Jensen cousins so the Easter Egg Hunt there takes some quick skill to get eggs in time before they are all gone!

Nathan catching his breath!

March Pictures

One of the highlights of March was the Fairy Tea Party at the Provo Library.  Carina and Siena joined us and the girls had a great time!

Rachel & Lizzy liked watching the ballerinas perform

The girls got to walk in a fairy fashion show and model their costumes

Daniel's 3rd grade had a play they performed in Spanish.  He was a donkey and Jonny was an Indian.

Nathan has managed to lose all 4 of his front teeth at once.

Our kitten Cutie Patootie is growing up

Our family's long time babysitter McKenna was married

The kids were excited to come see her as a bride at her reception.

January Photos

Nathan turned 7 in January. We also had LOTS of snow which the kids had fun playing in.

The kids just LOVE Cutie kitty. Usually one of them is holding her at all times we are home! Here Lizzy is having lunch with Cutie on her lap!

Rachel is inseparable with her best friend Reagan.

Lots and Lots of snow!

The girls like to help shovel and wipe off cars.

A side effect of the cold, dry weather-- hair static. Rachel is not having many good hair days this winter!

Lizzy made this crown in Primary at church and reminds everyone she is going to be a queen in heaven.

Daniel got new classes. He no longer fits the kids size, so he got some new trendier styles.

Always wanting attention...

Nathan continues his obsession w/ Legos.
