Imagination Avenue

Mariahs birthday party was held at a cute little place called Imagination Avenue. You can visit there during the week, or you can reserve a time on the weekend for a party, and have the whole place to yourself. A really fun place for the kids, the boys had a great time.

Check out the new hair-do!!!! He looks sooooo different!

Mickey Mouse Club Play House

This year for Mariahs 2nd Birthday the theme was Mickey Mouse Club Play House. Her mom and dad knew what they wanted for the cake and had all the figurines and cake topper. The cake was a 1/2 sheet white cake with fresh strawberry filling. The icing was whip cream embellished with pieces of fondant.

Goofy and his vegetable garden.

Minnie Mouse and her table and chairs.

Pluto with his dish and dog bone.

Easter Suits

Last year for Easter my Grandma sent matching suits for the boys to wear on Easter Sunday. They were both really big so we put them away for this year. With general conference falling on Easter Sunday, we pulled the suits out a week early and let the kids wear the jackets to church the Sunday before.

(they actually come with matching pants, but I prefer the khaki pants instead)

If you couldn't tell, Aiden was being the biggest HAM. Oh, btw, totally cut Elams hair a few days after these pictures were taken, and am still regretting it.... 3 weeks later!! UGH!!!!

Happy Birthday Sky-Rache!

During Spring Break my little sister Schuyler, who is in Colorado on a volleyball scholarship, came in town for the week. We had the chance to hang out a few times, and were able to celebrate her 19th birthday as a family. As you can imagine, we had cake for dessert. It was a chocolate fudge cake with Pirouette cookies for decoration.

Vacation cont....

While on vacation, we drove a little further north and got to take the kids to see the snow. (It actually snowed quite hard on our way home as we drove through Jerome, the kids really liked that) They had a few snow ball fights and ran around for a while with their dad. I don't think Will was ready!! Aiden has a pretty good arm, I see a lot of baseball in the future! Elam just trying to figure out what's going on.

Boys being Boys!! Mommas boys!

Vacation

Last month we had a stay in Sedona we needed to use so Willbert took a week off and we went up north for five days. Now that the kids are getting older, especially Aiden, we are really enjoying taking the kids to different sites and parks. We took the kids to Out of Africa, a little pricey, but we really had a good time. It was so different than the Phoenix zoo, the animals were actually awake and walking around!! We took a safari which took us inside the gates with some animals and we were able to feed giraffes and camels right from the inside the bus.

Elam wasn't too fond of them getting THAT close!!

And neither was Aiden!

The kids watching Tiger Splash

Towards the end of our day there, they give you the chance to follow them around as they feed all of the bigger animals. Here are a few pics of a couple of their tigers.
