conference in Park City

Daxton hanging around
Dane pretends he is Spiderman
Kemarie desperatly tries to get the two boys to play house with her.

WE love to go to Park City for conference.  Tyson's family tries to come out for good eats and spiritual uplifting and little bit of play (o.k. maybe alot of play).

Easter egg hunt







We had my cousins over for dinner and they helped our kids with a egg hunt it was really cute and fun.  One of the most laid back Easters in a long time.  We usually have many more people with us.

DInosaurs


We love going to the Dino museum.  We can literally spend hours and hours there.  So many fun things for kids to do and learn.

Colorado

When I went to colorado in March I was so excited to see my friend Elisa who lives in Seattle we both came to Colorado and had fun getting together.  We had to get a quick snapshot and here are the other things I did while I was there:

   
Casa Bonita, they are about to enter Black Barts Cave.

We went to  the museum of Natural History and Kemarie and uncle Kenny wanted to be  mummies.

Altough it was the very end of March a snow storm hit as if it were mid january and so uncle Kenny thought it would be fun for the kids to go outside in the crazy snow and make smore's in the porch fire pit.

We went to the aquarium and met with my two best friends from highschool and we never could get a picture with all of them together, but  Kemarie and Kayla at least sat next to each other for more than four seconds so we got a picture.

Fancy bread!!!!


I bet you all think I purchased this at some high end bakery, well I fooled you all.  I made this all by myself(o.k. my brother-in-law put it in the oven and actually cooked it).  Isn't it so beautiful. Hooray:)  Delicous by the way as well.  It crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy in the inside, a little piece of perfection.

Party Time

For Kemarie's friend party we went to her preschool gymnastics place.  It was so much fun.  They had a coach who set up a obstacle course to start out and then took them to jump on the long tumbling tramp.  Last the coach took them to the preschool area and just let them go wild.  And boy were they wild I will tell you what.  


Once they were sufficently tired we took them up for cake and ice cream, opened presents and then took all the kids home.  I did not have to clean up anything and when we returned home I was not exhausted it could have lasted another hour and I would have been fine.

Happy birthday Kemarie

Kemarie turned four Last week.  Grandma McClellan and aunt Lauren came out along with other family and friends, she was really excited to open presents.

Daddy would be Proud

Dane loves to wear Kemarie's dress-ups.  What is a mom to do?

My sisters came to visit


I am really bad at taking pictures during big events like my sisters, and their kids visiting for  a week.  We had a awesome time.  We went to the Draper temple open house, the dead animal museum, took the kids swimming, and just hung out.  I did get one picture of my nephew and my two all fighting over Lucky.

Ahhhh, Nap Time!

Dane is peacefully  napping and after 3 hours I start thinking WOW lucky me, he rarely sleeps more than two hours.  3 and a half hours later I decide maybe I should check on him to make sure he is o.k.  Turns out he got into a bottle of lotion and covered his head as well as all the bedding. The worst part of this is he has done it with daddy's colonge and hair gel on two other occassions.  He is truly a messy kid.  Kemarie only did something like this once during nap time she got into the desitin and that is hard to clean up.

boys will be boys


Dane falls and bumps his head, nose, arm, some partof his body daily.  In the top pciture he is showing off his egg (soory not a great picture).  It was a really bad fall.  So (second picture) he funs to the freezer to retirieve the much needed booboo buddy.  This fall was no joke the fourth major fall of the day.  I  think Kemarie has had as many major falls in her whole life as Dane has in the past month.

WORKING OUT

Tyson and I have both started working out at least five days a weekand I am sad to report Tyson's ablility to get results quicker than me.  OhWEll.  

A couple weeks ago Kemarie and her friends signed up for a cheerleading clinic, and at the end of the week long practices they were part of the halftime show for the highschool b-ball game.  It was so funto wach the girls the girls attempt a cheer routine.

Walking alone

Well Kemarie gave me a heart attack again this time she wasn't looking for school.  on Sunday after church Tyson told me he was leaving church and I assumed he had both children with him. So I went on my merry way finishing up relief society things and walked home(we only live one block from church).  When I arrived home Kemarie was in tears and Tyson told me that she could not see me at church and so she walked home alone.  I almost died.  My little girl crossed the strret by herself and walked home.  after shedding a few of my own tears I awarded myself mother of the year award.

"beautiful part"

Yesterday as a family we were getting ready to eat dinner by  staringt with a prayer.  Kemarie was the designated prayer and she could not remember how to start and mom and dad both said," dear heavenly father".  Ok she was ready.  she started right and then she looks up and says, "here comes the beautiful part I love Jesus" and then she continued her prayer with the usual three year old stuff.  If you are not laguhing hysterically then I guess you had to be there.
