Raingutter Regatta

 Tyler's Cub Scout Pack had their Raingutter Regatta today. Tyler (and Tim) built a great boat, the "Shark Encounter." Tyler won 1st place in his Bear Den and 3rd place over all in the Pack. It was fun to watch all the boys race their boats. Tyler was super proud!

 

Zac's T-Ball

 Zac (6) started T-Ball this week. He LOVES to play baseball so he is super excited for the season. He did great on his first game. He hits well, and got a runner out on first base. It is a lot of fun to watch him play..

 

Easter 2014

 We had a great Easter! The kids were excited to see what the Easter Bunny put in their baskets. They all got new pajamas, candy & chocolate, Kayli got a t-shirt and Monster Tail for rainbow looming, Zac got a rocket and sidewalk chalk and Tyler got a rocket as well and a bug flicker. We had our traditional breakfast of Orange rolls and scrambled eggs and then went to Church. After Church we watched a couple of short movies about Christ and why we celebrate Easter and then headed to the park for a picnic and to play.

 New Easter PJ's

 

 

 

 

 After our picnic we came home and Tim and I hid eggs in the yard for Kayli Tyler and Zac to have an Easter Egg Hunt. It was a nice day!

Lagoon fun begins!

 

Our family got Lagoon Season Passes for Chirstmas this year so we went on Saturday. It was the perfect day. No lines & nice weather. This was Zac's first time going where he was old enough to remember and ride the rides. He loved it. He needs a few more inches on him to ride all the rides, but he is happy with the ones he can ride. He wouldn't like most of the fast rides anyway. His favorites are Bambora, Musik Express and the Sky Ride. Tyler and Kayli will ride anything and love the big fast rides especially! But we had a great day full of fun as a family.

 

 

Museum of Natural Curiosity

 Adobe got free preview passes for their employees to go check out the new Museum of Natural Curiosity at Thanksgiving Point before it opens in May, so we went on Thurs. and invited the Stratton's to go with us. What a cool Museum!!! The kids had a blast. It is such a fun place for the kids to run, play, explore and learn. They have rope bridges 2-3 stories off the ground, climbing, slides, dress up, banking, theater, water play, building things, a store, music...everything. Very impressive!

 This plane is about 3 stories off the ground hanging with a rope bridge to get up to it, the boys loved all the rope bridges and climbing they could do, I just wish I would have taken more pictures.

 These three boys are so fun, they have such a great time together, they make me laugh!

 Tyler and Zach making music...cool!

 Grey, Kayli, Brook, Alyssa & Tyler climbing around...

Can't wait to go back with the kids when it is all complete and open

Zac's 6th Birthday Bounce Party

 Zac had such a blast for his 6th Birthday Party with his friends. We rented a bounce house, plus with the trampoline, everyone had a great time! It was pretty warm that day, I think it reached 78, and we aren't used to it being that warm yet so I got the hose out to cool them off and they loved it. We had chocolate cupcakes, played games (thanks Kayli and Rylee), and bounced. It was perfect to be able to have a Birthday Party outside on a warm Spring day. (His friends that came...Finn, Drew, Reece, Crew, Trey, Brynn, Owen, Ainsley, Quincy, Gwen and Kaleb

 Cooling off in the shade with some cupcakes and Capri Sun.

 Zac got a lot of fun gifts...soccer ball, swords, batman figure, Captain America shooting shield, bug collecting set, fishing game, batman watch, raquet/ball set, bubble machine...he was spoiled by all his friends. Zac is loved by everyone and has so many friends it was hard to limit his invite list, but it turned out perfectly with just the right amount of friends.

We invited the Stratton's over for cookout and to play with the bounce house that evening. That was a lot of fun to have them come over and spend the evening with us. Our kids always have such a fun time together.

 

The invitation and party favor...
