Luke's 11

 Luke is one amazing boy, we love having him around.  He's always happy, helpful, and Ike follows him around all day.  He loves scripture stories and reading any and all books.  Luke's has started to tend the kids while I run errands on occasion... I just can't believe I have a kid old enough and responsible enough to do that.

Favorites:

Book- Fablehaven series

Movie- Jurassic World

Sport- Basketball

Food- Pizza

His choice for breakfast was German pancakes, and we had Grandparents over for his party later that night.  We took all the kids to go see Zootopia for his birthday surprise the next day. It was a fun couple of days celebrating this special boy!

 Abigail has the perfect bike for giving Carly a lift.

 Carly and I went to the treehouse for her first grade field trip. 

 We made wands and participated in a play.

 We played restaurant for a bit with her friends.

 Date night

 Carly and Hailey both snuck into my bed during the night and snuggled up together.

 I found Luke in Ike's crib one morning.  I asked Luke what happened during the night and he said Ike asked him to come and sleep with him.  Best brother ever.

 Our ward had a family Pinewood Derby night.  The kids loved it!

 My Mom had a special Easter lesson for the kids.  

 They like to see Grandpa Jenkins's name on the war memorial

 She had an Easter egg hunt for the kids

 We were able to go spend the day with the Dawsons for my nephew's baptism. 

 Abigail and Sadie are such cute cousins.

 Grandma Sharla made Easter baskets for all the kids and the men went and hid them.  It went so fast I only got this one picture.  Ike was so pleased with his basket of candy.

 Us ladies went to Women's Conference

 Easter morning at our house was so fun.  The kids love searching for their baskets.

 This was the best shot we were able to get.  Ike was not happy to be taking Easter pictures.

The girls

Just my Luke, since Ike wasn't cooperating.

Isaac turns 2! March 2016

Isaac is the best little two year old around.  

We can't get enough of him.

food- mandarin oranges, pancakes, grilled cheese (string cheese)

book- Prince and the Pauper (the one with Mickey Mouse)

Isaac loves to go to nursery at Church.  At the beginning of sacrament he stands on the bench and turns around looking for his nursery teachers.  As soon as he sees them he shouts, "I found Robert and Tamara! Oh hi Robert!" As he waves.  It's slightly disruptive, but he loves his nursery leaders so much!  When he talks about the kids he says, "I want my Carly," or "Where is my Luke?" He likes to do whatever Luke is doing and follows him around when he's with his friends.  Luke loves to have him around.  I just can't say enough how much we love him!

 Birthday pancakes

 We met Grandma at Zupa's for birthday lunch

 Grandparents came over for cake and ice cream

This birthday boy has had too much fun and is ready for bed!
