The rest of March.....

Well, clearly this blog has fallen to the side of my busy life....sorry....so, the next few posts will probably be just a ton of photos- thats what most of you care about anyway right?


MARCH 2012

GRRRRR!!!!




Getting ready for church!

Our family's latest obsession- frozen yogurt! We have some friends who own a frozen yogurt shop that we frequent now!

We went on a family bowling outing, Katy loved her first time bowling!
She wanted to do everything herself.
  
Before we had the backyard finished we knew we needed quite a bit of fill dirt, so one day the trucks in the neighborhood were hauling a bunch out and our neighbor stopped them and them dump (FREE dirt!) some for us to share....well, he ended up "letting" us have the entire load....which, one wheelbarrow at a time, we hauled to the backyard with the kids (and neighbor kids) help. I should note that I just shoveled and Jack hauled the wheelbarrow back and forth, he's a beast!


Jonathan and Christie's Temple Sealing

March started off with a bang here! The first weekend in March almost my entire family converged in  Denver to witness and celebrate my brother Jonathan, Christie, and Miles being sealed at the LDS Denver Temple for time and all eternity. It was such a fun weekend, even if there were around 20 people at my house. It was so fun to let some of the cousins play, the siblings chat, and the grandparents watch everyone have fun together! We were missing some people, it would have been so fun to have everyone be able to make it.


The first to arrive was my little brother Dennis-Michael. D.M. lives in Mesa, AZ....so when the first day he was here turned in to this he was not a happy camper. I had to laugh at him when I picked him up at the airport. It was cold out, windy, and cloudy....snow looming....and he was in a t-shirt and shorts. When questioned if he had checked the weather forecast for Denver he answered, head hung low, no. Oh well, at least it warmed up after this small snowstorm.

 It wasn't even cold in the house, but this southerner now turned desert dweller was still shivering just looking at the snow. It was great entertainment:)

 Next to arrive were my parents and Jennifer-Lee with her adorable little Tobin. Man I love that little boy. he is SOOO adorable!!! My boys were so excited to finally meet their newest cousin. Even they are smitten by his cuteness.

 We had a lot of fun with Grandpa



 I went to the basement to workout while Katy hung out with Aunt Jenn-Lee and she
fell asleep in the rocking chair.

 Seriously Tobin, you're killin' me with that cuteness, cut it out!


We always love having family visit and letting the kids get to know my giant family a little better, they look forward to visits too- it means more people to play with them!
