Random March

Maggie is dressed for Mix-n-Match day.

Dalton took this.

Dalton included taking a picture of this balloon in his prayer, so I figured I'd better save it.

He took this one as well.

Maggie was the Star of the Week!

St. Patrick's Day.

Various Family Fun

Various family fun from our trip to Utah. We went to the cabin. It was freezing.

Baby in the carseat next to the heater.

Stopped at Jodi and Franco's to meet baby Franco. And for them to meet Sienna!

Got a grandma.

And a grandpa.

And an Uncle Brook. We had dinner at their house and played a game of Taboo.

We had dinner at Jon and Sharon's. The kids LOVED giving the dogs treats for their tricks.

But apparently Stacy was still hungry.

Hanging out at grandma and grandpa's.

Getting "toppers" at Arctic Circle.

Baby Franco & Next Gen Cousins

We got a new nephew this week, just before we arrived. He sleeps a lot.

Here are all the "little" cousins. 6 days, 3 1/2 years, 2 3/4 years, 6 years and 4 months.

and the boys. Love.

I'm not sure how this family hike came about, but it was lots of fun! Brook, Erin, Ember, Jamie and Mary met us at the Coyote Hollow trailhead behind the Draper Temple and we hiked to Ghost Falls. Oh, and Jetta! There's not much shade on the actual hike, though we found the falls shady. Probably not a good hike for summertime. It's 1.3 miles each way. Moderate incline the first 3/4 of the hike, then a bit steep at the end. I think Maggie walked nearly all of it on her own. Dalton was carried a lot, since Uncle Brook was willing to have a turn.

I'm really looking forward to having such awesome helpers at Yosemite in June! The kids love their big cousins.

Love this picture of my boys. I think we decided the red branches are dogwood?

Silliness. Dalton is drumming on my head.

Studmuffin and the Draper Temple.

Dalton got a couple shoulder rides.

Oddly enough, though we saw no wildlife on the actual hike, we saw a deer right on the side of the road driving out.

Bestest Friends

We spent most of the day Tuesday with our friends. The kids all played so well together.

Dalton, Emmett, Colette, Maggie, Sienna and Madeline.

Here they are playing "it's a small world", scooting their boats around the room. Maggie led the gang on a trip to Disneyland that involved many other rides as well.
