Saturday events


This Saturday was full to the brim with events. The first event was the monthly Home Depot Kids Clinic. Cody was voted to take the three kids to this. The kids each made a wheelbarrow for me with a beautiful flower inside. They had a blast!



Next I was voted to take them to the annual Teddy Bear Clinic at Portneuf Medical Center. We have been to this event before and it was a big hit. This time, we went with our friends and their stuffed animals. The stuffed animals get admitted to the hospital with a wrist band and the kids get to choose if they want to be a nurse or a doctor. All my kids chose to be nurses (the hats were cooler). The kids got to listen to their animal heart beats (or lack of) and they got casts on each animal.

The last month or so



Alexa and her friend Kamille have discovered dressing up. I went to the DI and kit the jackpot. Now they dont have to use ALL the clothes in Alexa's drawers. These are just a few of the amazing outfits they have put together.

Easter was nice. Unfortunately I slept through most of it including the egg decorating part. When I woke up, I found the kids had apparently decorated their own eggs with little to no help from their dad. They were dyed beautifully but then they got ahold of the glitter glue and made a little dab on each of the eggs. Cody and I thought this looked like a little poop on each one. Mental note: help the kids next year. :)


Okay, Austins birthday was not in April but I forgot to post the photos of his cake and the birthday boy. Austin turned 7 this year. Wow.
