OH BOY!!!

Happy Easter 2009Say, "Easter Bunny!"

I thought the last time I had blogged was around Halloween. Imagine my delightful surprise when I discovered it had only been since February!! Ah ha ha ha. So get ready for a splurge of pictures mostly and a few details.

Walk-A-Thon 2009

Most of the month of April was spent in preparation for Z's school Walk-A-Thon. This year S and B rode in the stroller while I pushed and looked for Z as there had been a miscommunication as to what time they would let her start walking. One of the highlights of the morning was that Daddy took his lunch break and walked/ran with Z! Thanks Daddy! After the walk, everyone was able to cool down with a popsicle! Can't beat that!


Checkin' out the new "HOG"!

In our attempts to cut costs during this rough economy, we purchased a used scooter which helps get A to and from work. The kids have had fun asking daddy to take them zooming around the church parking lot and surrounding neighborhood. Okay, I'll admit. I've even taken it to work and to "escape" a few times. What a fun way to get around! Although you do get a few peculiar looks while riding if you happen to be 7 months pregnant!

New ducks on BYU campus: Spring 2009

During the early part of May I had an unusual Saturday off. We took the opportunity to spend some time together as a family adventuring. First we went to feed the ducks on campus.

Then after taking a much needed pitstop we went to the Bean Museum. A had never been and was really impressed with all the exhibits available. Z had just finished "Animal Week" in her first grade class and had done her report on the Grey Wolf. The above photo shows Z and S doing their best wolf cry in front of a Grey Wolf.

B on the other hand, wasn't so sure about sitting next to something like that!

The lions were another story, however.

Crawling like wild animals

We had a great day and wore eachother completely out! But what a treat to be together on a Saturday! Hope we get to do it again soon!
