"Quote of the Day"

"Yup MOM. It's warming down."
Today we woke up to clouds and rain this morning. I told the boys they would probably need jackets today. Treyson always has to test me. So he walked outside to see if he really needed a jacket. He walked back in and said "Yep mom. It's warming down."

So Matt invented a new way for the boys to go up the treehouse. We're glad he's so strong-to get all of them up there over and over and over. Matt is our HERO!!
We have video but it is side ways so you'll have to tilt to see it-Sorry.

Our weekend in IDAHO!

Easter weekend we decided to go to Idaho and visit family. We had a very good time. It was so good to see everyone!!


Danny and Lorilee let us stay at there house after a long drive to get to Idaho! They were so nice to let us crash. Danny even let them shoot some hoops in his driveway!!


Dallon on the go-cart!



After Danny's we hurried over to see Angie, Travis's sister graduate from BYU-I!!
We were so excited for her. CONGRADUATION Angie!!

Here is Bryce, Afton, Angie-the graduate, Lorilee with Halie, Jaren, and Alyssa, Brayden, Dallon, Treyson and Maiya.
Happy Birthday Dallon!!

Dallon celebrated his 4th birthday in Idaho! He was very excited to have his birthday at Grandma and Grandpa's! And to share his birthday with his aunt Destini!!
Here we have Aubrey, Me, Jaren, Brayden, Grandpa McKee, Angie, Destini, Dallon, Kirsten, Peter, Treyson, Gavin, Kylie and Kiara. What a crew!

Destini and Dallon blowing out there candles. Destini had 7 on top and Dallon had 4 on the bottom. Happy Birthday!










On Saturday-(Dallon and Destini's Birthday) My dad took us to the Rodeo!! We love the rodeo. The boys had to bring their Wranglers and cowboy hats and boots to go to the rodeo!

We had a blast. We love the rodeo!! Especially the DNCFR in Pocatello, ID!! Thanks dad! We had a great time!!

Gavin in his Cowboy gittup- We couldn't keep a hat on him. But he loves his boots! Jaren and Travis "Cowboy Brayden"



My dad, Scott and Treyson watching the Rodeo!

Afterwards we rolled down the hill in the parking lot!




Treyson found the McKEE's advertisement inside the arena!

Dallon on Aunt Angies lap.




Gavin's Easter eggs.

We got a double dose of Easter Egg hunts. One Saturday morning at Grandma and Grandpa Drapers and another Sunday afternoon with Grandma and Grandpa McKee. It was a beautiful day. Gavin had a blast finding Easter eggs.
We had a great time in Idaho and thank everyone who let us stay at their houses. There are really alot of us now and know it is a HUGE sacrafice to them. So a BIG THANKS! to you. WE LOVE YOU!

The first games of Soccer season

Jaren and Treyson had games at the same time. Everytime I went over to watch Trey he was sitting out. So I didn't get any pictures. So this week I will have to. Brayden had his game on Scout night so I couldn't go to his game. His age group has barely enough people playing to just scrimmage a little so it's very frustruating for me. But at least he gets to play!
Jaren's first soccer game. He scored 9 goals! He is loving soccer and glad his games aren't on scout night so he doesn't have to choose!! Me too!!

Soccer season has been very cold and windy. Braydens Thursday game was actually canceled due to the big snow storm that came. We recieved quite a bit in one night!! But by today-Sunday-It is all gone and we have beautiful green grass and all the flowers are starting to come out! YEA! Hopefully spring is here to stay!!

I forgot the camera!

So I have to confess-I didn't take any pictures this week. My batteries died - and I even brought new batteries with me but ended up forgeting the camera. That is typical life for me.

Something funny that happened last week at church-
I took Gavin out because he had started fussing so I did not hear this, but Travis said Trey and Dallon started quietly fighting (ya right) but Dallon finally just yelled "Buttface" as loud as he could. Oopsy.

Brayden had his first track meet this week. Finished 3rd in the 1600 with a time of 6:30, but was DQ'd for stepping out of his lane while passing someone. He was 2nd in the 800, 6th in Long jump, 3rd in the 400 and his relay team finished 3rd. Not bad for a meet in the snow.
Travis said he was going to take the team to Dairy Queen for all the DQ's they got as a team.

Brayden, Jaren, and Treyson started soccer this week. It has been very cold and snowy so I hope it will warm up before the games start!

Since I don't have recent pictures, I decided to post some old ones I thought were cute of the boys.


This is the many fun things Gavin and Dallon do while the boys are at school.
Dallon can really keep Gavin entertained!





The boys in the back of Dad's truck! Yeehaa!
