{ Funtimes... }

I think SPRING might actually be here I heard birds and I actually felt the warmth of the sun imagine that after all these dreary long winter months it actually might be here to stay we can only hope right!!
What a weekend we had alot of fun besides a nasty cold for me which isn't fun. We went to a lot of zone basketball. Saturday we took the kids to two basketball games it was fun we hadn't been to any all season so the kids enjoyed it {for awhile} then started running around and playing. Saturday night my brother and sil came up with their 3 kids and my awesome sister Dawna and her hub monty had a babysitter for all thier kids and we all went out to dinner had some good laughs we always have so much fun together. I wish we all could have been there my 2 sisters and a brother and D were missing but it was all late notice so D said I don't get out much so go ahead so that was nice of him and I got another night out! After dinner we went to the final basketball game which was so good and so close and exciting ! It was more exciting then the other ones we saw earlier. So it was a good night.

Sunday Masen decided to be loud and ornery in sacrament so that wasn't fun. But church was busy we had the stake primary presidency come so that made things a little more chaotic but it turned out good. My little sis liv came over later in the day and hung out with us then we went for a drive so it was fun to have her here. Love it when she comes over people think our kids are noisy sometimes and can only spend so much time here before they go crazy I think {thats probably why I'm crazy but I'm used to it and love it means my kids are happy and excited right.Some people can't handle it oh well} SO we appreciate it when they stay a little longer with us! Cause really our house ain't that big and they are just kids!
On Saturday Kolten decided he was done with training wheels on his to small for him bike!! Somehow he got the right sized wrench out and go the training wheels off so I go outside to ask what he is doing and he says "I decided it was time for me to learn to ride a two wheeler but I want dad to help me." So sat afternoon that's what they did and he learned to ride a 2 wheeler this weekend he just decides to do something and learns it fast and that's that! SO that was fun ! I have to post another picture that is common especially in the summer when D decides to get out the rope and do some ropin!! people, things and the kids get in the way they love it and run away but D almost always catches me and i get so annoyed and they all think its funny!! Imagine that eh!
So it was a fun weekend. I finally found some jeans this morning too so that made it even better I love moto jeans and found some for 14 bucks { they are usually anywhere from 50- 150!!} So I'm excited after months of searching and then I find them for a third of the cost thats exciting!
That's about all the exciting news update of our weekend we did family stuff I got to go out by myself and we had a fun weekend.
This morning I took Masen to Rebecca's {Rebecca started a babysitting co-op a couple years ago another brillant Rebecca idea!! Where you have a 3hr-shift a week and anybody of the 9 people in the co-op can drop there kids off in that 3 hour shift and you pay with coupons its awesome!}
Anyway I went with just Lauren for the morning to town just the two of us. It was alot of fun we got her new funky glasses picked out. They are having a half price frame sale. Since we've been through 5 pairs in a year an half we decided it was a good idea. I'm excited cause they are so cute on her! Then we went shopping together it was fun just being with her asking her questions and hearing her answers are the best because like I've said before she is funny and comes up with the best lines. While we were gone Masen managed to climb in Addie's crib in the 2 sec that he escaped from view. But Rebecca said he was really good with addie which is nice because he just gets into everything and has started hitting kids {its so embarrassing sometimes} I'm hoping this stage won't last long. He is a great kid just busy, busy, busy and always on the go! He hates to be restrained in any way ! Any suggestions for a strong willed fiesty almost 2 year old??
Well have a great week! Make it a good one!

Go Kolten! That's great!

I remember listening for the birds. I always knew it was spring as soon as I saw a robin hopping around. Here's to nice weather!

YAy! The birds are singing. I thought I heard, but just thought it was me.. LOL!
Yay for Kolten too! Nothing like feeling the power of riding a bike all by yourself.
Where did you find such an awesome deal on your jeans?? Let's see a pic of you in them. I bet they look great.

I love birds singing! When we went out for our walk after FHE last night I actually saw flowers starting to grow up from the dirt :) Yippee... spring might come after all! I love the picture of D roping Lauren. Todd does that too and the boys think it is the funniest thing EVER!!

Hmmmm...it does look like Kolten could use a new bike this year! When Tyler was little he had training wheels for about an hour before he found a wrench and took them off. And least Kolten had the decency to wait for his daddy to help him. I imagine Dad was happy he didn't have to miss out on that!
