Spring 2014

Here are few more pictures of the kids being kids, and our family having fun.

Below, they are pretending the ottoman is a space ship.  Of course getting all three to look at the camera and give a nice smile is near impossible, so we'll settle for this.

The kids lucked out when their Dad insisted on taking everyone to Disney on ice.  I was a little worried that Ada and Sam might be a little bored, but along with a few well timed snacks, they were captivated the entire 2 hour show.  It was a lot of fun.  Thanks for the great idea Mike!

Dennison was eager to participate in his school's science fair this spring.  It was a little difficult with my science teacher background for me to hand over the reins and let him complete his project at his own first grade level.  He did a fantastic job investigating what types of materials were attracted to magnets.  He of course impressed the judges with his enthusiasm and snagged the highest score in his grade.  Great work Dennison!

One day during spring break, we took out the bikes and headed to the park for a picnic.  It's so nice when the weather warms up enough to get back outside and play!

Adaline's petite stature never stops her from being overly ambitious to follow the big kids everyone, she loves climbing and going down the big slides with her brothers.

We also visited DeNae and Brendon, who spoil the kids with all kinds of attention.

Warm weather means a picnic lunch everyday!

Of course, spring means Easter! Egg dying and hunting is always fun for everyone.

One of the young women at church works for a  dentist and loves to pull teeth, which is fantastic since I really don't enjoy it and Dennison has had a couple that needed to be pulled.  Thanks Marie!

I can't believe how fast this girl is growing up.  She loves playing outside with Sam and tries to do everything he does, including climb trees. What a fun duo these are when Dennison is at school.

We had several attempts at kite flying this spring.  The only problem is finding the perfect wind. It seems to be either not enough, or crazy strong.  Sam and Dennison were persistant and did find success a few times.
