April

 This picture was actually in March.. but we had an Easter Egg hunt at All About Kids. We had over 1500 eggs to hide- and you better believe that we ran out of places to hide the eggs, and just started throwing them all over the ground! :) We let everyone in at once, and all the eggs were gone in about five minutes!

 We went to Provo to babysit for one of my friends for a few days. Stacey, Nick and their twin girls were with us in Houston/Amarillo Texas in 2011. We had so much fun with their cute girls! We took them to Thanksgiving Point to see the dinosaur museum and the animal farm, went on lots of walks, played at the park and dyed Easter eggs.

Brad played some catch with Cam one day

 and.. we got a nasty sliver out of Jake's finger. 

 We had to go to Provo one day to get some things done for the summer and decided to stop by In-and-Out for lunch and to Krispy Kreme- two of my favorite places!!

Brad had his mom give him a haircut and decided it would be fun to have a mullet. I only let that last for about 2 minutes! ;)

General Conference was great, as usual. I absolutely love our traditional picnic that we have during the Sunday afternoon session. 

 Brad and I took Kalani to her gymnastics meet in Ogden since her mom was in Australia. I absolutely love watching gymnastics and it was so fun to see Kalani do her thing. She was great!

Malachi and Makoi always look out the cat door anytime anyone leaves the garage. It is so funny!

 We went to the Jordan River temple with Jake, mom and dad. It was such a beautiful temple- I always love seeing new temples. We went to dinner after at Red Robin.

Drum roll please........ We closed on our very first home!!! :) It is located right below campus. It is a tri-plex, so there is a 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartment. We will be living in the 2 bedroom and renting out the others. It's hard to believe we are home owners, and it doesn't really feel like it's ours yet, since we haven't moved in, but we are so excited! There are two grad students living in our part, and they will move out at the end of September and we'll move in. 

 We babysat the Hess' the last few days before we left for the summer. They had two different ducks come in their pool, which we thought was pretty crazy. Come to find out, they have been coming every night for the past couple months. How random is that though! We fed them some bread, and enjoyed watching Sofie (their dog) chase them around the pool.

We took them to the park, and to the fun park to play! Man I love these kids..

On Sunday, we took them to church, and for a walk/bike ride. 

 Then we went to Hillcrest, joined by my family and the Bundy's. After the park, we went to my parents for a yummy dinner and to say goodbye to everyone.. :(

 It was so dang sad to say bye to Jake! He leaves for his mission in just two short weeks (sorry mom- I'm sure you don't want to be reminded..) and we will be missing his farewell, which I am so sad about. He is going to be a fabulous missionary and the people of Washington are very lucky to have him.
