Day 72

Grandpa, thru his connections :), scored us some tickets to the SUU gymnastics meet. My daughter loved watching it, and so did I (my son not so much). It was lots of fun, and fun little excursion up to Cedar.

Day 70

We went to the library and did story-time with our cousins. And stopped on the way home at the Orange Peel, which might just be the best place EVER to get a smoothie. Later that night we went to Grandpa's basketball event he had planned.

Day 69

The cousins couldn't come and play today because they were sick. So we took the dog for a walk to the park. My son got sunburned! I forgot about that :( Then we went to Jumpin' Jacks. An awesome place where the kids get to bounce around in the big bouncy houses. The kids were definitely worn down at the end of the night.

Day 68

Our first day of vacation! The kids did NOT sleep in, even though they d. We enjoyed the sunshine and grandma's trampoline! We got to play with cousins too. It was a great day!

Day 67

Since we are on vacation, I can't edit my photos, so you all get to see what they look like untouched. But I figure many of you are wanting to see what we've been up to since we left our cold home in the north country :)

These are my cute little travelers. I always thought kids were so cute pulling their own luggage through the airport and mine finally did it! They behaved so well on the plane, I was really happy. I think they were just so excited to be on the airplane. My little man even named the plane Harold (like the helicopter in Thomas & Friends). We landed in Vegas and were greeted by Grandma and Kayla! Oh, but getting to baggage to meet them was funny. The escalator was challenging for the kids. And then all the people swarming onto the tram and getting a little separated from the kiddos. But it all worked out. I just think there's too many people in that city!

Day 66

We love technology, and how we can talk to our family face-to-face even though they are so far away.

(the quality is poor since this was taken with my webcam)

Day 65

We had my son's party today. It was pretty fun, and I think he was happy with how it turned out.

Day 64

We were getting ready for our trip (buying shorts, flip-flops, etc.). We happened upon these awesome shades. Doesn't he look studly?

Day 63

I can't believe it... the kids and I are really going on a trip! I bought our tickets late last night. I'm so excited to be traveling, the last trip I went on was in October. And the kids are super excited to go on a plane. We all are so happy to have so much time with family and enjoy the spring weather. We just are sad that daddy won't be joining us :(

Day 62

I can't believe my baby boy is 4 today!We celebrated with our breakfast cereal tradition. My mom did this when I was little. We got to choose any kind of cereal and have it on the morning of our birthday. For my kids it's kinda fun since I make them eat the healthier cereals. So my little guy chose Cookie Crisp.

After Breakfast we played a little suction ball on the window with Daddy. Followed by cartoons, helping at Sister's school, eating yummy cake at Daddy's work, playing toys, doing a mini photo session while it sprinkled, eating dinner, opening presents, and more cake. Then bed!

Some reasons why we adore this boy:

1. He has an amazing smile

2. He is a kind person

3. He loves little kids and especially babies

4. He loves to eat

5. He loves trains

6. He loves his family

7. He tries to play well with his sister

8. He laughs throughout the day at the silliest things

9. He loves sports just like his daddy!

10. He will come up to us, give a big hug, and say "I love you never ending!"

He's too cute I couldn't choose just one...
