Spencer knows how to get what he wants.

Last night as Chad and the boys were getting ready for their father and sons campout, Chad was trying to convince the boys that it would be ok to sleep at his parents cabin instead of in a tent at the campground because it is going to be pretty cold and the campground is only a few miles from the cabin. After a few minutes of Chad trying to convince them Spencer said, "Come on Dad, don't you want to be a man?" That decided things, they are sleeping in the tent.

Karalee went to the Prom!

Karalee got to go to the prom with her Grandpa tonight. His ward had a daddy/daughter prom. She had so much fun. I had fun getting her all dressed up. She usually doesn't like to have her hair fixed, but I promised her she could wear some of my lipstick so she was ok.

Bryant lost a tooth

I pulled Bryant's first loose tooth out today. He was so brave. He didn't cry and said it didn't even hurt. Since his Uncle Tyler offers him two dollars to let him pull his tooth I had to offer him two dollars before he would let me do it. Hopefully the tooth fairy remembers to come tonight.

Easter Egg Hunt

A few of my family members joined us for Easter dinner then the younger kids had an Easter egg hunt.

Easter 2010

Here are a few pictures from Easter weekend. It was so relaxing this year. I love it when Easter is on conference weekend.

This is the first year we have colored Easter Eggs. The kids had fun coloring them. I ended up making deviled eggs with the colored eggs and I served them for Easter dinner.

Chad and the kids are playing with the prizes they found in their Easter baskets. Bryant and Spencer have fruit stickers on their face.

Marlee's first birthday

We celebrated Marlee's first birthday on March 27th. That morning our primary put on an Easter egg hunt and Marlee was out in the sun for 3 hours, as we were leaving, I realized I should have put sun block on her. I was sad that her face is sun burned in her birthday pictures. I bought her birthday cake at the silent auction the young women in our ward had in conjunction with our Easter egg hunt. It looked so delicious. I am so thankful for Marlee. She is such a sweet baby. She is so good and so easy, so content. She is a blessing in our home.
