Here are some highlights from the last week of March, going into April.
I love the blossoms on our trees! They are so cute and make me happy. With the nicer weather we've been going out on walks again. Hudson discovered the wagon and thinks it's the best! Carter had a cough so we had him wear a mask.
Funny thought. Silly Piper w/ her head off her bed. Wednesday evening we were able to go to the temple and do sealings w/ Dave and Joann. We put Hudson down for bed, then our neighbor Jacob Anderson came over. Nyles and Carter played w/ him, then went to bed. It was wonderful to do sealings, and even better to do them w/ Steve's parents. The temple is such a wonderful place to be!
Going on another walk. Piper enjoys coming along of course.
Cute boys! Steve teasing Hudson about his binky.
Hudson loves his binky and blankets and carries them around. Hudson also wants to sit at the table w/ everyone. Here he is eating a Gogurt w/ Carter. He did surprisingly really well.
On Friday, the boys had a marital arts graduation.
They showed off the skills they've been learning, then received their next belt.
Carter went from a white belt w/ a yellow stripe to a half yellow/half white belt.
Nyles went from a yellow belt to an orange belt. Everyone w/ their new belts.
Good work Nyles and Carter! They both have been working so hard and have done a great job.
We are so proud of them!
Saturday morning the boys got a call from Mickey Mouse telling them he's excited for them to come on the cruise w/ him in three weeks! We then watched and listen to General Conference. We passed out a few white pieces to each Primary kid to make a temple during General Conference. We also passed out packets to keep the Primary kids busy. We talked about ways to "Build" your testimony. One activity was included while you listen, as you find key words, you can get a Lego piece to build something.
3 ways to build a strong testimony:
Prayer - He knows, loves & wants the best for us.
Scriptures - Strengthens our faith and testimony.
Service - “When you are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God.” Mosiah 2:17, from President Thomas S. Monson
A little temple I built, Nyles large temple he built w/ all the white pieces we had, and Carter's temple. They did an awesome job and kept then busy for the whole morning session!
The boys took the boat out and went fishing Saturday evening.
They didn't catch any but still had a great time of course.
While the other boys were gone, Hudson, Piper and I played outside.
Hudson LOVES to play with water and is so happy we have the water table out again.
Piper loves getting a drink in it too.
On Sunday we were privileged to continue to listen to General Conference.
The boys continued w/ their Lego building. We had a LOT of Legos out, to say the least!
Left to Right Back: Cameron, Ethan, Isaac, London Claire, Noah, Nyles, Conor, Carter and Chandler.
Left to Right Front: Lynsie, Alexa, Olivia and Hudson.
While the adults were hiding the Easter Eggs, Hudson had fun picking up his Easter Eggs twice! The 2nd time he figured out something was inside, specifically chocolate, and then he just wanted to eat the chocolate. Cute boy!
Nyles and Carter did a great job finding their eggs. They even helped others when they needed.
Some great quotes from General Conference.
We are so blessed and thankful to have a living prophet today!
