Going through Yellowstone (vacation part 2)

We went through Yellowstone. It was a lot of fun... but it was even more freezing. The little kids were SUCH troopers, bundled up in at least a couple jackets they hopped out of the car at every stop.

Mak didn't take his hands out of his pockets for almost the entire trip he was so cold... here Raquel got the outside of the jacket and Mak got the inside.
Best Buddies.... with the BEST VIEW
Emmett has learned to give loves and kisses... Mak is really the only one who enjoys the slobberfest.

ahh... precious
Thumbs up after a successful pee on the tree.

Mak at the end of the trip...........
and e at the end of the trip....... is that chocolate or is that poop....... its chocolate.

Schools Out for The Summer Vacation (Part 1)

Well Dave's school is finally out and so we celebrated with a little vacation. Dave's little nieces came all the way from Virginia to visit so we had tons of fun. Mak just couldn't get enough girl we all loved every minute of it.

We went to Mike and Marsha's Cabin in Island Park and of course we had blizzard.
We saw lots and lots of animals with our way awesome bignoculars.

We learned all about girl stuff, mak is now well educated in princesses, purses and general fluffiness.
We had so much fun with the little girls they are so adorable and fun. Mak loved them to pieces. They were so sweet and loved helping out with baby emmett...which will come in handy with their baby brother that is on his way.
Mak... Natalya..... Raquel .... and E hanging out and keeping warm watchin movies.
We had a lot more adventures on our vacation that we will post soon!!!

Tinisha's Wedding

ok so this is kind of lame....... considering it is David's Niece's wedding and i have no pictures or her. HAHA but we did have tons and tons of fun with all our little cousins and thanks for the good time and sorry for the lack of pictures to the lovely bride and groom.

Easter

Well I am nearly a month behind, and it was a very very busy month. So now that our computer is up and running again, prepare yourselves for a lot of updates.
We went to half a dozen easter egg hunts, all with snow, wind, and rain. But we spent our Easter Weekends and my mom and dads in Burley.
I felt so bad sending Mak out to find his eggs in the snow, but he didn't seem to mind.
Mak and Emmett cleaned up with their Easter Baskets, Mak's favorite was his golf caddy. In our attempt to teach mak both the religious and make believe sides of Easter, he got a little confused, and was just so excited that "Jesus brought him Easter Candy" what can ya do?
Emmett enjoyed easter and had his fair share of candy!
But mostly he just wanted to eat all the eggs.

Our Ice Cold Spring Break

This is what our spring break started out as... pretty crappy huh!!!

Fortunately we visited daves parents who's hot tub kept us toasty warm


This is seriously the first and only picture i have of our entire family looking at the camera.
Mak LOVES to see temples so we stopped at the Rexburg Temple to get a few family pics
I love this picture because it shows our true colors. Emmett is screaming..... Mak is looking for his next act of destruction and sometimes all dave and i can do is, kiss and be thankful we are all alive.
Daddy went on lots of walks and bike rides, despite the frosty weather
Emmett looks appropriately horrified
Emmett still looking appropriately horrified. Mak insists that emmett has every opportunity he does... whether he wants it or not.
What else is there to do on a blustery day then use a diaper box for a sledding device!!
We enjoy making fun of emmett for his extreme weakness, it has taken him several weeks to work up to this kind of strength.
The warmest day barely got over freezing, so we went out to play on the porch
