Easter pictures.

We took this picture on Emilys front steps. Tanner and Madison. This will be their last year to do Herriman's Easter egg hunt. They used to have a late night flashlight egg hunt that included money and great prizes but they did not do that one this year
Spencer and McKenna. They look more related than their own siblings.

And of course here is Brynnlee. She had such a great time and she LOADED her basket FULL!





Wanna go fly a kite?

My boys got the coolest kites for Easter from Sugar and I. We got these at Sam's club.
I did not think we would ever get enough wind to fly these, But we did. This is the open field(soon to be homes) across the street from our house.

Baby Ducks

Emily(my sister) got baby ducks about 2 weeks ago. I think they are so cute. One of them had the cutest feet. The kids just love them. I hope they do well because I am going to talk Clint into getting some next year.

APRIL FOOLS!

****I need to update you on the April fools joke I played on the kids.
Here are the yummy chocolate covered marshmallows(cottonballs).
Here are the kids enjoying them...
And here is what was REALLY on the inside.



Well here it is April 1st and I have not pranked anyone yet today. I have been waiting for Tanner to get home so he can help me come up with some ideas. I do have a prank for the kids later. It involves chocolate covered marshmallows or is it?...I have to make sure I get some pictures of the yummy goodness. heheheh
Tanner and I went out and glued some coins to the sidewalk and then remembered that Spencer has piano today and he goes home from school with Grandma. Maybe the neighbor kids will fall for it. Nope, we have been watching and and the bus did not drop any kids off. Hopefully Ashley will fall for it or maybe Spencer after piano. Oh well, we will have money stuck to the sidewalk all year.
At the very last minute we heard of a april fools idea and so we hurried and made a plate full of brownies for Tanner to take to grandma's when he went to piano. Get it brown E's. Ha ha funny.

Snow Snow and more snow!

We had such a wonderful windy warm weekend last week and now I am stuck in the snow. Its a good thing I got new tires on the truck and put out all of my spring decor, because I would have major confusion. Now I know this is a typical Utah spring but I have been in Utah for 36 years of my life(all my life) and I still am so surprised to see the snow in March. I am not a skier so this white stuff does not thrill me. It means shoveling and putting on layers and layers of clothing and hanging all those layers out to dry once they get wet. My kids enjoy the snow and I like to watch from the window with my cocoa in my hand. I can't wait for the real spring and summer to arrive. I like the rain to an extent but definately more than snow.

Yesterday we went to Ashleys track meet at her school(IN THE SNOW GRR). She took on some challenges that she was prepared for, she thought. She did the 300 meter hurdles and the 1 mile and the 4x1 relay. She did really well but all of the events were back to back almost and she struggled a little with being so cold but all in all she had fun. I forgot my camera(typical) but I got a new cell phone with a camera and I took a picture of her doing hurdles but I only got the shot of her after she jumped so I will try to figure out how to post the picture on here. I was also very cold and I chose to stay in my seat instead of trying to get a closer shot. I don't care if we are in a blizzard next time, I will make sure I get my butt out of my seat and get a better shot.

M M M Monster Truck

This is the Maverik Monster Trakker. This one you all know is local. We did notice that he got a new paint job this year.
This one is a new one that we have not ever seen and he is from Willard. When we went to the autograph table I asked the guy if he parks his truck at his house and he just laughed at me and said NO!
Here are the boys at the autograph table. Spencer is with the Maverick driver and Tanner is with a different one. I really can't remember. I took the boys to the Monster truck show on Valentines day. We had so much fun. It was a bit more crowded than normal, but maybe that is because we did not have end seats. The boys had fun and didn't notice the crowd. I just wanted to post some pictures. I always say I am going to take pictures of them together in their seats and then I forget and it is too dark and too many people.
