LET'S PLAY CATCH UP

It has been quite a while since I have updated the blog. It should be all caught up now-I added about seven new posts today. Sorry if there are typos etc. I was going as fast as I could! Enjoy!

CONNOR IS 5!!!

I cannot believe Connor is 5-years-old.

 It makes me sad thinking how fast the last five years have gone by, 

but I am so glad they have been spent with Connor!

He wanted a construction/"mighty machine" Birthday party this year.

He was so excited to open his presents but Brooks was sad he didn't have any to open so Connor told him to go ahead and open as many as he wanted. Connor is always nice like that. 

Love these brothers!

Connor and his Birthday cake!

The construction crew.

Being silly.

Working on the job site.

Piñata time.

Opening gifts from his friends.

Getting ready to blow out the candles and make a wish.

Connor probably told me ten times how grateful he was for his fun Birthday and thank you for the gifts! He repeatedly said it was the best Birthday ever.

It is fun to celebrate someone who is so kind and grateful! 

Two of Connor's wonderful qualities!

Happy 5th Birthday Connor!!!

PRESCHOOL GRADUATION

Connor did preschool with ABC Safari this year.

Miss Lisa did such a great job and we are sad it has come to an end. 

Here are some pics of his preschool graduation. 

(Sorry these pics are not the best.)

Connor and his friend, Logan. 

He came home with some darling scrapbooks!

So proud of Connor and the hard little worker he is!

PICTURES!

 I really wanted to get some cute pics of the boys and I love how these turned out!

Thanks to Liz Whitesides who did the photos!

THE BIG 30!!!

Justin turned 30 this year. 

Thanks to Rachel and Steele,

 we were able to surprise him with Utes football season tickets!!

 He is so excited but it took him a while to catch on to what his gift was. 

We did a WE LOVE U party. 

He is starting golf lessons tonight, 

which was what he decided to use his Birthday cash from the parents on this year!

Sounds like 30 is looking pretty good!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Love this boy!

FUN TIMES

Justin and the boys were digging a hole to plant a tree in our yard and found these old cow bones. Of course, they thought it was so awesome!

The boys had some fun play dates with cousins. 

Here is Brooks and Jackson. 

The boys and their cousin, Savaeya.

Brooks and I hit the walking trails quite a bit while Connor was at preschool. 

Brooks will no longer sit in the stroller and now insists on riding his scooter. 

Doing who knows what….

Playing with chalk.

We have been having lots of friends over since the weather has warmed up. 

They always love blowing bubbles into the tub of water and making a "bubble bath". 

Connor loves to go golfing with Justin. 

We cannot figure out if he really loves golf that much or just driving the cart. My guess is, driving the cart!

Treehouse Museum is always a favorite. 

We have been eating outside a lot lately, 

picnics are always fun!
