April & May

I know these pictures didn't turn out too well but at Kaylee's school they can earn a Liberty kids badge and Kaylee did it!! She had to memorize 4 quotes from past presidents,memorize the words to God Bless America, do two hours of service and complete a worksheet that taught them about our country. For her service project she picked up trash at her school, church and along a bike path in our town. It's so cute because now anytime she sees a kid ready to through their wrappers on the ground she tells them to not litter and takes their trash and throws it away!! I think she learned a great lesson!
Malia graduated from preschool!!! She absolutely loved it and had fun each week with all of the crafts. These kids were definitely her best friends and she loved being the girl that all of these boys wanted to kiss but couldn't!! That's my girl!




After the girls gymnastics recital Dad took them out for hamburgers and the local diner and then got them this huge Banana Split, they were in heaven and couldn't even eat it all!
This is Kaylee climbing the rope all the way to the ceiling, she was one of the few that could ring the bell at the top of the rope!




We went to Sidney's baby blessing and once again had a great time with cousins. It's so fun to be so close and not have to miss out on all of the family events! We always joke that Cambree and Savannah went to the wrong family, Savannah looks just like Malia and Cambree looks quite a bit like Ellie!

Grandma with the newest grandson Ryker, don't you just love all that hair!
Grandpa Peterson enjoying some of the Great Grand kids!
Malia at her preschool park day.
This is my little nephew, too funny!
We went down to St. George to see cousins and the girls got to run the Iron Man 1 mile kids race and they did great! We got to see some of the Iron Man contestants finishing the whole event and is amazing to see people that have been constantly swimming, biking and running since the morning hours; AMAZING!

The kids had a great time this Easter but the highlight was definitely the bunnies that the girls got to go pick out with Grandpa!





We got to watch my brothers 4 kids while they went on a little get-away for a week and we had a busy, fun-filled week! We went swimming, 4-wheeling, hiking, to the movies, to the gym, played games, built domino's towers and ate lots of food!








Don't let these two sweet faces deceive you, they are sweet as can be but take your eye off of them for a second and their into Something!

Ellie had a Cake-off party for her 9th B-Day where all of the girls were split into teams and got to build and design their own cake! They loved it and had a blast! (BTY- Cambree and Savannah were busy throwing M&M's all over the floor while we were occupied with the cakes.)

March Madness!!

Before and.....

After!!

The girls have been wanting me to curl their hair lately and needless to say I'm never too excited about it because it takes so long. So today we tried the hot rollers, I think a curling iron is a little easier to operate!! After only a few finger burns on my part, the rollers turned out to be a success!
Cambree just likes to see pictures of herself!! She always makes us laugh and is so sweet!

LET'S GO BYU!!!!!
The girls knew that mom and dad were getting pretty excited about the last BYU game, and after they disappeared for a while, this is what we found!!!

TJ has no complaints about helping Cambree take a long good nap!!!
My two nieces got to come and stay with us for a few days and after much anticipation the day finally arrived!!! We had tons of fun and my girls were so sad to see them go. They had a fun time bowling but after they discovered that our little 2 year old neighbor was winning everybody, Kaylee and Jenna tried to step it up a little but without much success!

They had a reading day at school and so we all got to go hear Kaylee read us some books!



While my girls were at school Jenna and Avery made us some delicious cookies!! They really did everything themselves!
Kaylee asked me one day if she could make her own snack and I agreed. We ended up with Cheetos, marshmallows, pretzels and some cereal drizzled with chocolate! YUM.....?
We went to some natural Hot Springs out in the middle of a farmers farm and the girls had so much fun. It was snowing though and so that is why we only got one picture! It was so warm in the water and so cold outside that nobody could stand to get out long enough to get some pictures!!
The Harlem Globetrotters came to town and the girls loved watching the "funny" basketball game. Malia was the only one brave enough to go on the court and dance!


Cambree could have cared less about the game all she was interested in was her sucker!!
Cambree never falls asleep unless she is in her bed and after church one Sunday she was adamant about sitting in her chair while I was making dinner. She was soon fast asleep!!

Nothing Like "Good Old Friends"

Malia right before going to Preschool! She loves Mrs. Paula and they always are doing something fun!
Cambree loves to comb hair and since all of us have had enough of "hair combing" we've converted her to the barbie head! The girls are much happier now!

Our good friends came for a weekend visit and we had so much fun with them!! Even though we haven't seen them for 2 years we picked up right where we left off! It was fun to meet Tyler, who looks exactly like Bryce and see how much the other two have grown!!

The Beautiful Frogley Family! We were playing "Minute to Win-It" games and Katelyn mastered the art of getting a cookie, (cracker) from her forehead to her mouth!!
On Saturday we had a fun-filled day full of running, sledding, swimming, cookie making, and movie watching!! We had so much fun and we can't wait for another fun weekend... SOON!



The girls were so excited for TJ to come home, you can see it in their faces! They love their DADDY!!
The girls had put so much thought into decorating a cookie just for Dad and they were so disappointed when they woke up the next morning that he hadn't eaten ALL of their special creations!
Cambree loves eating grapefruit and will seriously beg for it. One morning I kept thinking that she was telling me she needed to go poop but really she was just begging for "Grape-POOP!"
