St. George Fun!

 Cool kid eating a corn dog.






 Driving into the middle of nowhere trying to find dinosaur tracks. You can see I was thrilled about it!

 The red sand was very cool though!
 Victory! We found the dinosaur tracks.


 Big and little dino boys!









 I thought this was great! I love President Hinckley! This was a sticker on the door of the restaurant we ate dinner at.
 Swimming: not impressed....haha!
Cute little chunk in the desert!

These boys...

 This little character comes waltzing in the kitchen on Sunday. All casual like I haven't asked him 12 times to do up his top button, put on a tie, and tuck in his shirt. I just had to laugh and take a few pictures.

 And our disaster house as we are trying to get out the door for 9 o'clock church...Brutal! Haha!
 They each took turns wearing some old glasses of Cory's. I asked Parker what was up with the t-rex arms in this one.

So I turned off the comments on my blog. I get the feeling that blogs are so 2009! And not a lot of people comment or even blog anymore. 
I have found my love of blogging again...oh and my parents are in New Zealand and this is a good way for them to see my little goofball children's lives!

Spring Break 2013

 We got to visit sunny St. George for Spring Break. Here are pictures from half of our trip. The other pics are on Cory's computer. We went down on a Wednesday and got to stay until Sunday. It was so, so nice! The weather was perfect and we really enjoyed seeing my cute sister and her family as well as my brother and his crew!
 This girl is a doll! Her and Mataya had a good time.

 Benson, my little hiking buddy.
 Benson, Parker, Spencer, Beau, Zoe, Mataya, and Luke.


 Cory helped the girls up into the rock. It was the perfect little nook.
 We roasted some hot dogs and had smores.



 This looks innocent enough, but the boys wanted to walk in the water which turned into wet clothes, muddy butts, and just overall filthiness....they loved it! The parents, not so much...lol!
 "I'm just holding this hot dog here."
 We got to go to Beau's baseball game. And he hit a home run, it was so fun to watch him run the bases! And here are 3 of those dirty little bums!
 Splash Pad!


 We hit up the splash pad in between sessions of conference! It was a busy little place. We made the kids peanut butter sandwiches and chips for lunch. Cory ran to Benja's and got us Pad Thai and a spicy tuna roll....Heaven!!
We were so fortunate to be able to stay at our Grammy and Papa's/Grandpa and Grandma's condo! Grammy and Papa are living at my parent's house right now while my parents serve a mission in New Zealand. Mataya was a little confused as to why we were going to Grandma's house, but Grandma wasn't actually there. She kept acting like we were strangers. The condo is right by the temple and I loved pulling in each night and seeing the temple basking in bright lights!

Happy Easter

We have had lots of fun with Grandpa and Grandma Jones this week! And the weather has been beautiful, so it made celebrating Easter so nice. We did fun stuff like eat at Burger Bar, go shopping, and had 3 Easter egg hunts over the weekend. We got to spend Saturday with our Utah County cousins that we love so much. Lots of pictures on here, I really could just take pictures of Benson and Mataya all day! They just melt my heart with their cute little faces and beautiful blue eyes.



 This is pretty good of everyone! Uncle Justin laughed a few times throughout the day and poor Benson just couldn't handle it and would cry and cry.
 My little sweet pea sucking her thumb and holding my hand!

 Mataya fell asleep on Grandma two days in a row. Grandma's just hate it when that happens;-)
 Seriously, those rosy cheeks and blue eyes! 
 Benson came home from church and quickly took off his pants, he fits right in around here.
 I love this kid! And those freckles are the stuff of dreams.
 Lil' egg snatcher!


 This girl can be a real sass monster! She was saying, "Don't take my picture!"...yes your majesty! 
 This face!


 Parker is the cutest kid and he has the best laugh around!
 First time in the grass....not impressed!

 Weeee!

 This is fun Mom......
.....and you took it too far lady!!!

We love Easter......the end!
