SCORE!

Well we have great neighbors and they have decided to re-do their gravel in front of their house. They were so very kind to offer their old stuff to us. :) So as Kirby began to make the giant mound the boys got out their snow sleds and began to surf down the hill. Talk about entertainment. They did this for at least an hour before I made them come in for the night. Needless to say they were out there the next day doing it again over and over! Crazies!!!

Batter Up!

This was the first game of the season and I have to say that Davis did really good. He has a pretty natural talent for most sports, it is just getting him to pay attention that is the hard part. He really wanted to be a part of every play the first inning, but grasped that concept by the second inning. I was very proud of him and I thin he is so cute in his uniform.

GOOOO CUBS!

Happy Easter!

We had a very low key Easter this year and it was a lot of fun. Friday night we had a cook out down at the farm with yummy food and a huge fire. We wrapped up the party with our teenagerebels coming out in all of us with a little coal hot potato game, a little fire jumping and yes this was all while our children watched. Well I guess they will probably do it too someday, they might as well see the masters do it first! Saturday we headed up to the reservoir with Jed and Karisti to have a picnic. It was extremely cold. That really didn't bother the boys too much, the ran and played all over the rocks as I froze my bum off! Sunday was a great day, it was so warm and my two little handsome boys looked great in their new church clothes. (thanks Grandma Kunz) After church the Easter bunny visited our house and left the boys plenty of candy and some air pellet guns. These are their favorite things still. They really have had a great time with them and have obeyed all the rules we instructed. we had a great time this year!

Ear Candling

I went up to my parents house for conference because it was my mom's spring break also. During the second session of conference we did a little ear candling. The boys thought it was the neatest thing. Davis kept asking me to talk to him in a softer voice just to see if he could hear better. Davis had quite a bit of was that came out and sweet Ky, well he was so into the spa moment he fell asleep on the first ear and slept through the second one. It is really cool, and even though my husband still thinks it might be a hoax, I think he was a little impressed with what came out of his ears!

State Wrestling

We were pretty excited about the state wrestling tournament, my mom and dad decided to make the trip down to see Davis. He was so excited, unfortunately the excitement seemed to wear off pretty fast. He was totally pumped for his first match and did really well, pinning the kid in the second round. His second match was a different story he was all smiles and was just out there to play. He ended up losing that one by points. After waiting for at leas 1.5 hours and having them move us from mat to mat, he finally wrestled his 3rd and unfortunately final match. He did really good starting off, but the other kid kept choking Davis and then getting points. So by the end the poor Davis was frustrated and really upset. as the tears started to well up in his eyes we walked to the car where Grandpa Kunz had a cheeseburger waiting there for him. You would have thought he was the STATE CHAMPION. He was so excited, and we were so proud of him. He did awesome the entire season, never got pinned once and has some real potential at becoming a great wrestler!

Great job Davis!!!

3rd times a charm!

This was Davis' 3rd meet and he did awesome. I was so proud of him. He weighed in at 46 lbs. so it put him in as the smallest in his weight class. That didn't phase him though. The first match he came out fired up and pinned his opponent in under a minute. He has done really good at listening to Kirby and really seems to understand the different moves he has taught him. The second match was a little tougher, his opponent would stiffen up like a board every time he was put on his stomach, so it was hard for Davis to get him flipped over. He almost pinned him a couple times, but in the end won by points. The final match was my favorite, he came out took the kid down right off the bat, and pinned him in 30 secs. I really like those kind, there is too much anxiety watching and waiting to see what happens. I can't imagine when he gets into completion sports and high school. I now know how my parents felt all those years of me playing.

First Match

Second Match

Third Match

The end results!

GREAT JOB DAVIS!

Long overdue!

I took these picture back in October when I was scoping a location for pictures. My poor boys get so sick of being my guinea pigs, that I rarely get decent pictures of them. These ones turned out pretty cute, so I had to share!

All dogs go to heaven and come back right???

cause if not I am going to have one upset little boy! On our way home from Kaysville on Monday, we were ahead of the storm. By the time we got to Enterprise the clouds were getting heavier and you could see little rays of Sunshine breaking through. I was listening to the radio, but could hear talking. I turned it down and asked Davis what he was talking about. He said to me "I'm just talking to Dez!" (our dog that died Dec. 07) I said "Oh really what are you telling her?" "I was just telling her that she will be okay in heaven, and that Jesus will protect her. I told her she can play with Fraggles, (my childhood dog) Ash, (my brother's dog) Zip, (Kirby's childhood dog) and Princy (my mom's childhood dog) and she can come live with me again when Jesus comes back to earth." I just sat there. Here is my 5 year old giving me a lesson about the Resurrection, that I am sure he hasn't learned from me. The faith of a little child amazes me.

Skating Rink...

We went to Classic skating while we were at my parents house. It was a lot of fun they let you bring scooters. They had a blast! Davis started pulling out these Blades of Glory moves, Roz and I were dying! The best part was this lady that was there, she was into it to say the least!

I have a video of Davis, and it is the best one so hopefully it will upload eventually!

Abuse or Good Hygiene????

Here is Kyron's first trip to my sister's spa/baby room. Ky had a little uni-brow developing so I had her take care of it. The video is pretty funny, especially his face at the very beginning. Please enjoy, and remember that he agreed to it!
