Kris had a day off and somehow I convinced him to take 7 kids to the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point. This was the best I could do at getting a picture with all of the kids (minus Ruby).

 Over general conference weekend I got to visit with a couple of the awesome people I was able to serve my mission in Madagascar with. We had a blast just chatting and catching up. I wish more people were able to come but then again I don't think my husband would have appreciated me being gone all night long. Tiako ianareo!

 This little gal is now 11 months old! Such a cutie!

 We went to This is the Place state park for baby animal time. These chicks were cute but McKinley didn't like their claws. We got to pet some goats and ride the ponies too.

 We panned for gold and made some Easter crafts.

 We took some hikes in the hills.

 We enjoyed an Easter egg hunt in American Fork. The kids loved finding eggs and eating the candy. They also had a nice bbq hot dog lunch for us too.

 We went to the Sheep Festival at Thanksgiving Point and saw a sheep get sheared. There were some other activities there too but a storm was a brewing so we didn't get to enjoy it all.

 We dyed our own eggs at home. The kids were great at it.

 We have really been enjoying the warmer days and spending time on the back porch and chillin' in the front yard.

 Denzil made it all the way to the top at the climbing gym. He was so excited!

 This is one of Ruby's favorite places to play. If you don't know where she has gone, always check under the table.

 We went to the zoo with Denzil's preschool class and had a great time. It was a beautiful day even though it was a bit chilly.

 Ruby has been practicing standing up on her own all over the place.

I love the way I find these kids sleeping sometimes!

 This was their donut prize for both having a dry night! Only one kid in diapers, yippy!

 The next generation rock climber, start 'em while they're young. She is now 10 months!

 The kids love going to Moroni and riding horses. Oh, and dad loves it too.

 6 weeks after our trip to Crested Butte, CO this is the sliver that Kris got out of his finger. He thought there was still a little bit left but lo and behold it was 1/2 in long!

 More fun sleeping positions.

 Making their own pizzas with dad. They really enjoyed them!

Ruby is 9 months now! My how time flies. She is such a great kid, we love having her around!

These two rascals are always up to something...

Denzil came down with a bit of a rash and had to have antibiotics. Thank goodness he has decided that medicine isn't all that bad after all. It was torture, literally, when he was younger to get him to take anything.

The rash appeared the day of his valentine party at preschool so I had to keep him home. He still got to enjoy his treats and love from his classmates though. He was pretty stoked about that.

We went to the zoo for the last of the free days that they do in the winter months. Good thing we got there early because it was a total zoo (haha) when we left.

I borrowed some knight costumes for our blue and gold banquet for scouts and they were a hit there and a home. Maybe I need to get more dress up stuff? Then again, I don't need more mess.

We took the kids to the climbing gym and they fell in love with it! We decided to buy a pass for ourselves and have been enjoying it several times a month.
