Rick's Birthday

Rick's birthday was April 5th. We had a lot of fun and had family over later for a party. The boys were really excited for the birthday. I gave Rick the Joseph Smith Papers, which he's been wanting for a while.

Hop 2 it

On April 1st, my mom, me and the 2 boys went to Twin Falls for Braden's birthday (my sister Heidi's little boy). We took the kids to a place called Hop to it. It had about 6 different kinds of blow up toys. I wasn't sure if my boys would like it- sometimes they are hesitant about stuff- but they loved it! As you can see the picture of this huge slide, Brigham loved it. He was going crazy, going down it backwards and head first! We were there for a few hours and Brigham and Peyton never slowed down once. I also had a fun time visiting with my mom and sisters Heidi and Lindsey who are in the pictures above.

I took these pictures back in March, but I thought they were all pretty cute!

Green Eggs for St. Patrick's Day

I'm posting this very late, but better now than never! The kids were hesitant to try these green eggs at first. I caught Brigham hiding under the chair in the living room (he wanted to taste them without me watching). Once they both tried the eggs, they loved them and wanted me to make them the next day!

Easter Bunny

Rick's brother, Curt, has a pet rabbit. Brigham and Peyton love his bunny just as much as the horses. I never knew rabbit's wore leashes before- but they do I guess! So Rick struggled to get the rabbit out of cage- the rabbit barely fit into the leash (I guess she eats well). Anyway, the boys had a blast walking around with it. Mostly she just sat, but occasionally she would run off. And the boys loved it and chased after her!

Cute Cowboys

Grandma Jensen is accumulating dress up clothes for the grandkids. She found this darling cowboy outfit. Peyton loved trying it on and looks so cute. Brigham only wanted to put on the cowboy hat and then he said, "I need a gun." So he came back in the room with my blowdryer! We thought it was pretty funny.

Birthdays and more birthdays!

Jen's birthday party on March 8th (Jen is Rick's sister). Jen, Brigham, Christian and Paige

Here we are at another birthday party near the end of February. This is at Marie's birthday party (a cousin). Peyton loved playing with this vacuum the entire night!

Brigham and Christian are good buds (this is also at the birthday party)! It seems like since we've been back home, there is a birthday party almost every week! It's crazy, but the kids never get sick of cake and ice cream.

Brigham liked the static balloon effect!

Brigham got these glasses in primary- he looks so silly and cute!

I thought these pictures were so cute of the boys, just random and silly! Brigham and Peyton have so much fun together (they have their moments), but they really are great friends!

I never took pictures of Valentine's day, but I wanted to write something anyway. The boys got together with their cousins at Grandma Ward's house a few days before and had lots of candy and valentines from their cousins. Rick and I went night skiing on Valentine's day and had a blast! It was the first time we'd been skiing in about 6 years. We started out a little rusty, but by the end of the night, we weren't too bad( just frozen).

Snowman Time!

Boys lovin' the horses

The enormous snowman in progress- Rick setting Peyton on the snowman!

Well, there's the huge snowman we made! Actually, it was the guys who made it- we just observed. This was the end to a fun day out in the snow. The kids came inside freezing and had cold feet. So they all layed down with their feet up resting on the fireplace getting warm. It was pretty cute!

Brigham loves the horses and loved the snow!

Peyton loved the snow but wasn't sure what to think about falling in it.

This is in Grandma and Grandpa Jensen's backyard. These pictures are taken near the end of January when we received a ton of snow. And the boys loved it (it was the first snow Peyton had seen, and Brigham was only 1 1/2 the last time he saw the snow!) They also love petting and feeding the neighbor horses!
