A few weeks away

Checking out their newly filled Easter buckets.
Jayden, Age 18 months
Carter, Age 18 months
"I'm pretty sure these are mine, Daddy."
Jesus wants me for a sunbeam.  Even in Sin City
Waiting with Daddy for the "Magical Dancing Lake."
He was pretty impressed
Jayden was less impressed
"Ok, maybe I'm a little impressed."
We bought our first driveway!  It came with a free house.

"I don't know who did that.  I'm just as surprised as you are!"



Carter stands his ground against the mighty bear.....

And then we have Jayden.

Photographer in the making.

"Daddy forgot my jacket.  Luckily Grandma shared hers."


Carter wanted to look extra macho shooting the bow so he took his shirt off.
(Actually he was pretending to be the Hulk :)

Aiming for the big hole.  Missed.
Two arrows in the same hole.  It was a big hole.

"Can we keep him?"
"It's so FLUFFY!!!!"

Mommy and Carter saving Daddy and Jayden.

We climbed the mountain!!

ICE CREAM!!!!
Putting the kids to work making Daddy's icecream. 

Enjoying the fruits of our labors.

"For me?  You shouldn't have!"

"Grammy, can't you go any faster?"

More manual labor for the kiddos.

This kid loves to climb

Samwise tending to the garden.

Jayden loves her woof woof.
And dirt.

"Can't catch me!"

Yet again, putting the children to work.

So pretty.

Enjoying our last months in Arizona




Enjoying a day off in Prescott
"Yeah I'm the coolest mountain climber around"
"You wish big brother."
"Camouflage!"
(Carter gets really excited when he finds things that are the same color.  Here he is showing us that we can't see him.)
Hiking is so much cooler with hiking sticks.



Carter practicing without training wheels.
Go Buddy!
"Whoa! How do you steer this thing?!"
Ready to break the sound barrier.


Looking adorable.
Still adorable.
A little Einstein in the making.
Hangin' at the pool with our buddies.
Movie Night!
A great day for running through the sprinklers.

Chasing the Leprechaun again.  Almost caught him this year.
At least we found where he hid his treats!
After discovering that there was no green on any of their jammies, Carter was terrified they were going to get pinched in the night (St. Patrick's Day night).
Thank goodness for green markers.

Match Day!!!!!!!!!!!!
Waiting to get our Match.
Trying some last minute mojo
A toast to Utah Valley Family Med Residency!
Here we come!



First Easter egg hunt.  What a good big brother.

Practicing his spelling

Introducing Adventure Guy 2.0

What a handsome missionary.

Jayden also enjoys dressing up.

Tights are tricky
"These tights itch!...These things stick to your butt!"
(If you haven't seen Curly Sue go watch it now!)
Headbands aren't just for your head now days.
Good for a skirt too!
