March 2016

Here we are in March already of the year 2016. I think having kids makes time fly by even faster. Time just keeps going and going and I wish I could just stop and stand still for a moment but such is life. It'll just keep flying by and I hope that I can make the most of it and enjoy the little moments along the way!

At the library in the kids section. They thought
it was awesome... if you can't tell by their faces!

Nacho night with an applesauce cup...
sometimes we need something easy for dinner.

Working on her "Frozen" magnet set.

"Superhero" Garrett got tired out. 

Kimbri and Garrett worked on making "robots" out of a
cream cheese box (Kimbri) and a granola bar box (Garrett). 

Poor sick Garrett :( 

Kimbri loves wearing her crown and "wedding
dress" around the house 

Working on her beads Uncle Zach got her. 

A picture of a house she drew for her friend,
Tessa. We texted her a picture of it :)
Kimbri's expression cracks me up!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I will not miss these darn scorpions...
sticky traps for the win!

Brenna is a roller! Since 6 days old she has loved rolling
around on the floor.

Story time with daddy.


Kimbri wanted to do a "silly face" picture. 




Girl's night out with some ladies in the ward.
The Cornerstone ward in Gilbert is the best ward ever!
I'm going to miss all these ladies so dearly when we move. 

A batch of tuxedo brownies... yum!

After we found out we were moving I headed
to Walmart and Sam's Club and loaded up on empty boxes
and hit the jackpot in Walmart's Garden Center!


Wearing dad's hat....

... and making an angry face.

Kimbri loves salads!

And Garrett does too!

I'm gonna miss jogging down this road. It's
always very quiet and peaceful.

Kimbri wrote all her letters. She has learned
a lot during preschool!

Kimbri drew this picture of a fish in a bowl
and warte all our names on it. Garrett's name
is half on the left and the rest on the right but she
mostly got all the letters of all our names on it!

Shopping trip with Garrett and Brenna while
Kimbri was in preschool!

Kimbri's "splash pad" she made with play doh.

Easter 2016

Easter weekend sure was great! Our ward puts on an Easter breakfast and egg hunt every year so that's what we did on Saturday morning. The next morning was Easter morning and we curled Kimbri's hair and she wore a cute dress that the Susan Tenney brought over in a bag full of clothes for Kimbri.  Her husband, Jeff, is our bishop and they have been so kind to us giving us so many clothes!





I forgot to get a picture before church so we tried to get a picture out in our front yard after church. Yeah... Brenna was soooo ready for a nap and Garrett had already taken his shoes off. But oh well, that's how it is with kids :) Also, I couldn't just pick one picture because Garrett's facial expressions were cracking me up! And I love how in one of the pictures Brenna is looking at Garrett like he was crazy. Haha!







I had bought those water shooters and bubbles last year
right after Brenna was born on a major clearance and saved
them for this summer. I'm sure we'll get great use out of them!

All the eggs they found


Brenna had fun playing with the plastic
Easter eggs.

Visit to the Pond

This pond has been one of our favorites while living here in Arizona. It's the perfect place to take scooters or bikes and let the kids go around the pond on the sidewalk. Brenna loves going on walks in the stroller, too, so it works out great! We also have come here several times to feed the ducks that wander around. I love this place and am going to miss it so much!




Those two kiddos- I love when they play so happy together.
I hope they can always be close and be good buddies.


They almost look like they're the same age in
this picture.
