1st trip to the park this year!

It reached 40 degree's today, and a new friend from our neighborhood called to see if we wanted to go on a walk on this beautifully sunny day. How could I resist? So we packed up all 4 kids and headed to the park. We had so much fun!

These two played pretty well together and really seemed to enjoy making a couple new friends. I reassured them there would be many more visits to the park this summer.

The babies got chilled, and were very ready to go home.

I've been trying to get more involved in our ward and neighborhood. I was so very greatful to have someone call to see if we could play. I've felt a little lonely since we have moved here and not knowing any of my neighbors. Hopefully with the warm weather everyone will come out of hibernation (including us)and we'll get to know lots of people that live close to us.

He's finally coming!

This is Jack Johnson- our favorite muscian and he is finally coming to Salt Lake City again. Tickets go on sale on March 15th, so everyone get ready to buy some tickets. We will be saving our pennies so we can go. wOOt!

Family fun.

I tell ya what, trying to get a picture of 11 rambunctious kids is a challenge! It's not very often that we get together with all of my siblings and thier kids. My uncle was in town visiting from California and somehow we all managed to get together. The next biggest accomplishment for our little family was that we survived it! It is quite the noisey crowd when we're all together. The last grandchildren picture my parents had was before I even had any babies, so this was a quick fix to at least have a pic of all of them together.


This is my beautiful niece! I am amazed that she will be a senior next year and is figuring out what college she's going to go to and stuff. It makes me feel very old. She brought her violin over last night and played a song for us. She is really good! I'm very proud of her.


This was what our van looked like when we arrived home after playing. Mind you we only live maybe 5 minutes from my Mom's house. It was really nice to have a short and sweet time getting them to bed. :) And fun that they had so much fun using all thier energy up!

Still trying to figure out the Movie thing. :)

Not the most flattering pics- but my cutie girl none the less.

And a lot less tears from knotty hair.
