Gotta have h

Is it all about the kids? Yes, at our house

Logan's end of the year project-mostly done by himself. It's a local ice-cream parlour that operated for 30 years and then closed. New owners bought it and have learned to make all the old recipes.

Johanna backstage before her dance recital.

Ed and Log enjoying ice-cream at school. Logan got one item for every times table he learned-he passed off all 12, so it was three scoops of ice-cream, sprinkles, choclate and caramel syrup, gummy bears and whip cream (he didn't want a cherry). I helped scoop, so Ed of course had to have some.

So cute! Cam and I found this cute gosling at the zoo during his field trip there. There were a whole bunch of them being gaurded by their menacing parents.

Sorry about the fuzzy photo, but it's a shot of Logan celebrating the victory of his Log-mobile at the pinewood derby tonight. His car won the "most original paint job" award and came in 7th overall out of 27. I spent the night trying to get ONE good picture (never happened) and cleaning up vomit off of myself and Ed after Camden pulled Ed's shirt from the back and made him choke...all in all, a very exciting evening for everyone.

Here's Dad playing on the floor with Inky and Cocoa. It was really funny how our cat was interested in Cocoa. She watched him all night long and came right up to him lots of times-I think they could be friends!

Here are just some of our pretty flowers this Spring-the whole yard was gorgeous this year-the best we've had! I know it doesn't really show in pictures.

We went to the kids school carnival last Friday. Ed was really excited to get his face painted, though you can't tell by this picture-he loved the spider he got on his cheek. This cute girl is in our ward.

I think this picture is hillarious! We just wanted one...ONE good picture of the kids on Easter-is that too much to ask?

Easter

We had fun dyeing eggs. Ed just loved it, though was throwing the eggs in the yellow dye as fast as he could-I cooked 20 eggs, and about 8 of them were yellow. I let the other kids re-dye them, so they ended up the most interesting shades of puce!

Here's Ed shlepping eggs as fast as he can!

My Easter cookies-beautiful to look at and delicious to eat. However-not a good choice for people needing carpal tunnel surgery-that cookie dough is hard to squeeze!

Here's the Easter haul that Cam and Ed got from the Easter Egg hunt we went to. It was really cute watching Ed, who's never done one, pick up the eggs-he was going as fast as he could, which he didn't need to-their were a million eggs! So much candy! Luckily, I guess, Ed just broke the candy jar, which was full of leftover Easter and other candy.
