THIS CHILD....

IS GUILTY!!

OF WRITING ALL OVER EVERYTHING IN MY HOUSE! Saturday he took a pen and carved who knows what into my entertainment center.. yes my huge $2000 entertainment center!!... Are you kidding me... I thought we were over that stage! He punished himself by going to his room and shutting the door... he stayed in there till he thought it was safe to come out! Well apparently I should have beat him... because today while I was getting my hair done (Jeff was home "supervising"or not) he decided to write Halie's name on her American Girl Doll! IS HE PURPOSELY RUINING THE MOST EXPENSIVE PIECE OF FURNITURE AND MOST EXPENSIVE DOLL IN THE HOUSE! I don't know.... All I know is if it happens again his Nintendo DS is being sold and paying for a new doll and whatever else he ruins! Am I crazy... or at age almost 6 should they be over this stage!!!!? (I will answer my own question... YES THEY SHOULD!!)

Finally Friends...

A little tea party! (Don't ask what Halie is wearing... I have given up!)

Friends... after 3 years they like eachother...a lot!

We had our friends the Reynolds come to visit! I was so excited because we do NOTHING all the time so it is fun when we have visitors! They used to be in our ward... Melissa and I were pregnant with our girls together...then they moved away... rude (ha ha)!! These two silly girls have had an arrange friendship... but this visit made their friendship official! They had so much fun together! And Micah loved their little boy! We had a great time! Hope you come again soon! :)

First Fieldtrip

Happiest I have ever seen him!

Micah and Maycee {Best Buddies}

I went with Micah on his first field trip on a bus! It was so much fun! We went to Staheli Farm... learned and looked at all the animals! Had a blast on all the fun play ground stuff! Micah went to "farm preschool" there a few years ago... the teachers still remembered him.. and asked for my email so they could send me some pics they had taken of him and Halie a few years ago! I can't believe how much they have grown since then! It was a great field trip! Micah loved the bus and LOVED even more that he got to take a lunchable! Pretty exciting stuff! I love this age!

Here are the pics of when they were in farm preschoold years ago... time flies! Halie has changed so much!

STOP GROWING UP... PLEASE!!!!

^This is my favorite! Halie being so dramatic :)

Her innocent look...

Cowgirl up!

When she is silly she makes this face...

And when she is mad... ^

Seriously... Why do kids have to grow up!? It's really horrible if you think about it!

Well this little one is growing up way to fast! I haven't done her picture since Fall.. ok.. maybe Christmas but that doesn't count! I have been putting off because they are a nightmare to take pictures of... I now have to bribe my kids! So I called it a special "date night" with mom! We take pictures... and then go out for ice-cream! Halie was convinced it would be great... Micah is still not so sure.. I might have to buy him a toy on his picture/date night! .. I figure if I do their pictures separately and then only have to do a few shots together on another night it will work better for my patience and their's! We will see!

Halie did pretty good... Every time I took a few pictures of her she wanted to hold my camera and take a picture of me! ... It was cute I have to say! She has quite the personality... I am going to put together a collage of all her funny faces of the night! :)

Spring Pictures!

I cannot believe that this handsome little guy is going to be done with Kindergarten soon! It is crazy how fast time goes! These are his "Spring" (fall looking) School Pictures! He is getting so grown up. Micah is looking forward to First Grade. (Me and Halie not so much!... What will we do all day without him?)

DAD'S and DONUTS!

I told you it would be coming soon! Another fun day for Micah! This time with dad.... and this time Micah hopped out of bed and started deciding which kind of donut he would have... definitely glaze! But then they got there... and the glaze were gone.. so when he came home he told me that it was ok... he just had a "white one and it was so so soft", and "it was just wonderful!"

EASTER MORNING!

We were Hoppy to see that the Easter Bunny found us at Aunt Megan's house!

WOW the Easter Bunny got crafty this year! Micah go this cute homemade Monster!

And he was thrilled... he thought it was so funny!

Halie's bunny not homemade... obviously!

She is such a little mother!

Jeff and the kids! I cannot be photographed in the morning! Yikes!

Darling little Ruthie!

Poor Ruthie doesn't have a chance.. She was smothered all weekend!

Ruthie and her goodies!

We had such a great time sharing Ruthie's first Easter with her!

Kids make every holiday so much fun!
