The Splash Park

Once the big boys were in school, we decided to do one last fun "summer" thing before Coop started Kindergarten. So we went with a bunch of friends to the splash park in Highland. The kids had tons of fun running through the fountains and splashing each other! What a fun place!

A Kid's Dream Come True!

The boys were so excited to attend the BYU Football Camp so that they could meet all of their football heroes!!

(Thanks, Reno for getting the boys together for a VIP photo shoot!)

Thanksgiving Point Gardens

So a bunch of girls in the neighborhood decided to get out and enjoy the beautiful spring weather at the Thanksgiving Point Garden's Tulip Festival.

What is it with water that attracts little boys like magnets!

Austin refused to sit still for even a second so that I could take his picture.

Thanks, Coop for at least trying.

You're suppose to smell the flowers, Austin, not eat them!

We even saw a family of geese with their babies in tow.

The kids had a blast rolling down the grassy hill over and over!

What a fun day. The gardens were so beautiful.

I wish we could go there every day!

I'm feeling a little "WICKED"!

So for Christmas, my cute mother-in-law slept out on the streets of downtown Salt Lake to get tickets for her daughters and myself to go see "WICKED". And can I just say, it was even better the second time around. I had gone to see it last year in L.A. with some friends but I loved it even more here in Salt Lake! We started off the evening with dinner at "Macaroni Grill", which was delicious of course.
We took so long eating we had to run through some dark, wet alleys to make it in time for the show! But once we were in our seats, it was all worth it!

What an fun night! Thanks, girls!

Easter Pictures

So Easter pictures came a week late this year. We were in California on Easter and our little Austin was at home with Grandma and Grandpa. So we waited until we got back to snap a few photos our our handsome little devils!

I just want to thank the cute little couple I saw taking pictures off the side of the road for showing me this great photo shoot location!

Gardening 101

So some friends of mine told me about this new way of gardening called "Square Foot Gardening". I decided we would give it a try.

First, I had to enlist Clark's help in making my garden boxes. Thanks, Babe. You're awesome!
My "little man" is such a big helper.
See, gardening can be fun for the whole family!

Let's get growing...

A Very Happy Place on Earth

Easter in a Hotel

So we had Easter in a hotel in California.

The boys couldn't believe that the Easter Bunny actually found them.

Cooper wanted to know if everyone in the hotel got the same easter basket that he did.

Tyler was so excited that his golden egg was filled with money!

Zach was pretty happy too!
Coop just wanted to eat all his candy!

And Austin's basket was waiting for him when we got home.Way to go Easter Bunny! Another successful year!
