Tulip Festival Spring 2012

Every year, Gibson and I have a tradition of going to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point Gardens.  This year, we took Caleb and Gage with us for the first time.  We all had a BLAST!!!


Of course, the flowers are BEAUTIFUL!

 








But I think the best part of the day was how much fun we all had together!  It was just one of those perfect days!  Wonderful weather and a lot of fun!  Here the boys are running/rolling down the big hill by the waterfalls.





The sun came out and we got to take off our jackets and run around!!!







One of my most favorite pictures ever!  I caught Gage by surprise running around this tree!





Gibson found another hill to roll down!


Running through the maze in the Children's Garden.

I put Gage in the stroller and then went to get Caleb.  When I tried to put Caleb in the stroller, I couldn't!  I guess Two wanted to go for a ride!!

Caleb and Gage enjoying corn on the cob for the first time!



Having fun outside on the swing!

Gibson was in the Longview Choir last year.  At the end of May, they put on a concert for Longview's 50th anniversary!


Gibson with his best friend, Bowen!

Easter April 2012

The Easter bunny was good to the boys this year!  Here's Caleb and Gage's haul.



And here's Gibson's haul!  He was visibly upset over the "size" difference of the presents!

But then he opened the egg that gave him a subscription to the Lego Master Builders Academy!  Then he was super excited!

Easter egg hunt at home.


We went on an early morning egg hunt at Union Middle School.  Caleb and Gage were so cute running around.  They didn't quite get the concept of finding eggs, but still had fun!





 As always, we saw our friends the Walkers there! (me with my friend, Kaili).  You can't see it in the picture, but I have on capris and a light jacket and Kaili's dressed like it's the middle of winter - that's why we were laughing!

 The weather was so nice that day that we went for a bike ride at the Jordan Parkway!

A quick stop at the Nature Center to see the baby ducks!



Playing with our new toys in the backyard (LOVING the weather!)


Then off to Grandmas for more fun with the cousins!

 Doing the annual egg hunt at Grandma's house (we are NOT letting Chelsea and Chris hid the eggs again!)

My 3 boys relaxing on the couch together!

 Super, super smart Caleb stacking his blocks! (Remember - he's still 1 in this picture!)

We got the swing set uncovered and are loving the warm, spring weather!



Gibson played baseball for The Giants this spring.  His team did awesome - as did Gibson!  He actually was one of the team's pitchers this year (and he was the youngest kid on the team).  They even made it to the playoffs!
