Spring Break

Our Spring/Easter break was a lot of fun. It was great to take a small break from school to recharge the batteries and spend some time with the family. At the start of the break, my parents came out to visit. It was really fun to have them out and it was great for my mom to be able to see what it is like out here. We went swimming, ice skating, shopping, minature golfing, and a whole lot of eating. It was so fun and we already miss them terribly. At the end of the week we had a great Easter. Christopher had a lot of fun decorating eggs and keeps asking us when we can do it again. Jackie and her friends also set up an easter egg hunt and Christopher was an egg finding champion.

Christopher was super excited to see that the Easter bunny had left him a new bicycle. It is a motorcycle and he can't wait until the weather is good enough to go ride it. It is a lot bigger than his old one and has adjustable training wheels so he will be able to really grow with it. He is already really good at riding it, but he still needs to practice using the pedal breaks. His old bike didn't have any breaks so this is a new concept for him.

Christopher continues to be a crazy guy. He is still in love with sports and loves to play with his friends. He misses his cousins and grandparents a lot but he is a great little guy. He is daddy's little buddy and we are constantly together. He had been going to preschool the last couple of months and he has really improved in vocalization and counting activities. He has also become really independent and wants to do everything himself. He also really loves to help his mom and dad in the kitchen. He loves to cook Pancakes with Dad(the only thing Dad knows how to make) and he loves to make Snubies (fruit smoothies) with his Mom.

Tyler is our little butterball. He is so much fun and is constantly smiling, especially at his mother. He gets annoyed by baby food and always wants to eat what we are eating. (notice the mark of his mother, the silver glow of Diet Coke). He also has found his voice and does a really loud grunt for two reasons. 1-He wants food. 2-He is by himself and wants to be picked up. We love our Ty guy and couldn't imagine him not being in our lives.
Life is so wonderful for us right now. It was so great to celebrate the resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ and to understand the great power that is in the resurrection. We are really excited for conference this weekend and also for the visit of Jackie's parents on wednesday. We love you all
