Todd putting up the flag

November 2011 071

So I have gotten some flack lately that I haven’t been keeping up on my blog, so this is my sad attempt to write something.  A lot of things have changed in our lives lately, but I will write about that later.

This is Todd putting up the flag one morning in November at the SY school.  It is his favorite job.  He is a good student who listens well.  We are so proud of him.

Shay’s Wedding

August 2011 047

After being gone for 3 weeks this summer, we were back for 5 days and went back to Rexburg for Shay and Hollie’s wedding.  It was a great day, and we were so glad to be there with our good friends.

Jack Sparrow

April 25-April 29 2011 024

Todd as Jack Sparrow.  He LOVES pirates, and for Easter he got a Jack Sparrow movie, he loves it.  He asked me to take this picture of him “dressed like Jack Sparrow.”  What can I say, he is such a cutie, a awesome big brother, and great help.

A rare nice day in April

Some say our weather has been crazy, and I would have to agree, 70 one day and snowing the next.  It makes for some crazy days of calving.  On this nice day we got Fred out and all 3 boys took turns riding him all day.  Luke helped his dad and Joe sort heavies, he loves it.  Here are a few pictures of that beautiful day.

Here are dad and Luke moving the cow back out to he pasture.  There were really cows in front of them, I was trying to get up as close to them as I could.

How do watercolors taste?

I don’t know how water colors taste, but Jed does.  I guess I needed to feed him before getting him dressed, not the other way around.  He thought they were great and wondered what the fuss was all about.  He got it all over the carpet too, good thing he is so darn cute :)  Needless to say the watercolors got hidden in the trash (had to hide them or he would have dug them out to taste them again.

The Easter bunny found us this year and left way too much candy.  Maybe we will all get sweeter.

We colored our 5 dozen eggs, then we hunted them and threw them (yes we look a bit funny in our throws, but we did pretty good for only throwing once a year.)
