New pool

Got a new pool today. The other one was broken and a little small for this big boy. I have a feeling he will be spending lots of time in here this summer!




Studio Recital

Friday I ended my spring semester of teaching with a studio recital. These are the only pictures I managed to get that night. I was such a nervous teacher I couldn't take anymore. All of my kids did great and I am so proud of them. I am getting to enjoy a break for a few weeks before Kindermusik classes and summer lessons start up. I love my jobs!



A few park pictures...



Sweet Cousins

Last week Luke and Katie came to town for their anniversary and the kids got some great time to play together. I didn't leave Elliott out on purpose, all of the pictures I took turned out blurry because he is in the move and there was no sitting still EVER! The funniest thing about the whole day is that Riley and Norah were wearing matching shirts. Not on purpose! I love these pictures of these sweet cousins and I love watching and listening to them play together.








They always have fun together!

Tricycle Riding

Riley has gotten really good at riding his tricycle recently, so about a week ago Russell took him for a ride around the block. It is now one of Riley's favorite things to do. It takes forever cause he stops pedaling and gets distracted and then can't start pedaling again, but that's ok.

Return of the breakfast mouse...

I couldn't find the first visit of the breakfast mouse, but it was cupcakes that time. I am just thankful that he is a very clean mouse. Not a crumb on the floor.

Water Play

Monday we started playing with some water in a tub and eventually Riley had taken most of his clothes off while I was cleaning up some things in the back yard, so I just turned on the sprinkler and let him have some fun! Can't wait for more fun water days, cause Riley loved it!


Current Events

Riley has recently picked up on a new hobby, keeping up with whats happening in our world today.





He's very serious about it!

A new favorite picture

Easter

This year I let Riley help die some eggs and then I had some stickers for him to use also.



Saturday Night my parents and Granny came over for dinner since we wouldn't see them Easter Sunday. The Easter Bunny was nice enough to leave a basket at their house so they brought it to Riley.



Sunday morning I had to sing at both Presby services so I came home in between services and the "Easter Bunny" had left Riley a basket while I was gone.





We did an egg hunt when I got home before lunch.






The cutest kid I know with all of his eggs. We are still working on eating through them.

"Mr. Potato Head needs to be catcher"

One day the helmet will fit...



...and I'll grow up to be just like daddy!

Let's Go Rangers (clap, clap, clap, clap, clap)!!!!

A few weeks ago Riley and Russell went to watch the Rangers play. We had to start a countdown 3 weeks before they went cause Riley LOVES the Rangers. He can name most of the team by name and he almost has all of the positions as well. I am not sure who loves the rangers more, Riley or Russell. They got home late and so I didn't see Riley until the next day, but he made sure to tell me all about it with the biggest smile on his face.
