Random goings on

We have been having a lot of fun lately! Spring is just getting here and I feel like we are already so busy. I love it. 

 Little O isn't so little anymore :(

 

I went to tuck Mikey in and found him holding his little candle.

Tree trimming

We had a visit from the Adlongs! It was SO good to see them. (more later)

Dinner at Barry's

We always find really cool animals on our morning drive. We saw this hawk a few days ago.

Snapshots

Mikey cut his own hair! UGH. Right when it was getting out of the awkward stage and starting to look good. 

Chad took me to Nashville! It has been on my bucket list for a while and Chad had to go for a work thing so he let me tag along. It was beautiful. There was so much to see. Don't tell my mom, but I think I could live there. As fun as it was to go I sure was glad to get home. I took a picture of the Wasatch Mountains because I was so happy to be home. 

Also on the bucket list, the Grand Ole Opry. It was a blast. 

Vince Gill

Diamond Rio (our personal favorite)

We were able to go to a session in the Nashville Temple. You can't really tell from this photo but this thing is tiny! It seems like there are only like 5 rooms in the whole thing. It always feels so good to go to the Temple, but to do it on vacation makes things that much better. 

We went to a hockey game and it got out so late that everything was closed. Needless to say we were grateful for healthy delivery :)

One of the greatest things I have ever seen. An entire row of nuns at a hockey game eating cotton candy. This made me smile.

I LOVE delayed flights (sense the sarcasm.)

Gracie's room

Let me tell you what kind of a husband I have. I have the kind that sends me off to spend time with my family and surprises me with a remodel when I get home! When I was leaving I jokingly told Chad to "fix" Gracies room while we were gone. I was joking of course, but when I got home he showed us what he had been up to the whole time. Gracie's room has always been a little blah to me but I never could decide what I wanted to do with it. What Chad did is so perfect and it fits her to a T. Thanks Chadder, we LOVE it!

This is the only "before" Pic I could find

After!! Horizontal bead board! I LOVE IT!

Party Time!

It's Sunday and that means it's time to blog! I am finally blogging about Mikey's party. We had so much fun and his day was really special. Thanks to everyone who came to support Mikey on his 4th birthday!

We started the day with WHATEVER he wanted for breakfast. He chose bananas and oatmeal.
Then a mcmuffin.

Next we went to get balloons for his party! He was pretty excited about this part.

The annual photo. I can't believe Mikey was almost 3 months old when we moved in this house.

Uncle Burke made Mikey a leather band with his name and spiderman spiders on it. He loves it so much.

His Wolverine mask. For some reason he is obsessed with Wolverine and Zelda. He wants to play Zelda every day with his dad and it has become quite the bargaining tool.

Pinata time!!

These next few photos are what we've been up to latley.

Why the long face you ask? Well, Mike decided to CHOP his own hair. We have been growing it out for a really long time and it is finally past that awkward stage. Well, he came in the other day with hair all over his shirt. I couldn't figure out where it came from then I spotted it. A huge chunk out of the back of his head.

Reading night at the school in honor of Dr. Suess' 103 birthday

After the haircut!

O is all over the place! I found him on the stairs not too long ago. It's time to get up the baby gate!

The chunk.

Zelda

The bath after the haircut. I think he's getting a little too tall for the sink.

Two toothed grin.

I had to get a picture of this epic morning hair
