Grandma and Aunts!

Here's Naomi in her Pretty Easter dress.  :-)  She also has a pretty fusia flower in her hair and pink shoes with white "frilly" socks.  Woops, picked the wrong pic.  

Here's Tustin getting ready for church today.  We've been doing really well at getting dressed very appropriately and in our Sunday best for church.  The boys all have belts, ties, black shoes and a nice white shirt and black slacks. 

Naynay sitting in her pretty dress

Tracker getting his shoes on.

Here's Aunt Molly and Tell!  Aunt Molly is so beautiful.

While I was in Utah I got to meet with these sweet ladies!  It was sooo fun!  Grandma is wonderful.  I got to meet all the other friends at the rehab center.  It was great.  While I was there they were having an ice cream "social" (no one really talked except for the Aunts and Grandma) and we sat next to one gal, I can't remember her name. She was given ice cream before we got there, but hadn't touched it and didn't want it.  So we started eating it and sharing it back and forth between us.  Well this gal was sitting in between us and as we were passing it, she grabbed it and started scarfing it down!  Haha!  Guess she didn't care for the toppings and was just waiting for us to finish them up!

Tustin decided to take Tell sledding.  Would have been a successful event except that he put him in a walker in the sled.  And that would have been fine, except the walker didn't fit in the sled and was tilted to one side. And that would have been ok, except it was tilted towards the side that the sled dramatically turned at the bottom of the hill... Ya not a good idea!  First battle scars.  Great adventure with big brother.

Okay Jacob and Tiff!  You will forever be in our debt.  I have been looking and looking for the perfect pizza dough recipe.  Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day is THE perfect pizza crust.  Here's the before and after. The best part is that it's a quick.  No planning 2 hours ahead, just pull it out of the fridge and make it up.  The longest waiting is for the oven to reach 550 degrees.  Mmmmm!


This picture was taken for homeschool. I got the boys a guitar to play, but we haven't actually been practicing.  I visualize the boys playing beautifully someday just like their Grandpa and me singing along.  Can't wait!

These are the beautiful slippers that the Lowell family made us for "Christmas"  I say "Christmas" because it never actually made it to us for Christmas.  We JUST got them, actually.  We LOVE them!  And Travis got a leather covered mini book of Mormon with a pick of the Savior on the front.

This is too Sweet!  Grandma and Tell looking at each other.  It was so fun to see Grandma.

Tustin's big block stack, he's so proud of.

Tracker lost his first tooth.  There's quite a hole in his gums where his tooth was.

Remember these kids??  I posted this for facebook, supporting traditional marriage.  I had a TON of people comment, Woah you guys look so young!!!  And I'm thinking, thank you, but seriously, do I look that old now??  ;-)  I'd like to think they're talking about Travis, not me.  lol!

Here is Travis- yes, he has such great sense of style.  His Aunt Lori makes kilts for a living (and doing pretty well at it) and so he bought himself a kilt.  He just HAD to add the cowboy hat, boots and clashing plaid shirt.

Random picture of my handsome boys!  They are cuties.
