Watch out David Beckham...

Here comes Blake!
Saturday was Blake's first soccer game through the city's youth soccer program. Besides it being bitter cold and windy, we all had a fun time watching these little 4 year olds run up and down the field!

I was not quite sure how Blake would play since this was his first time playing the game and he does not really understand all the rules of the game, but we were all pleasantly surprised. He was right in there trying to get the ball every time and when he did, it ended in a goal. Of the 7 goals his team made, Blake made 4 of them. My little soccer boy. It was "so" cute to see him out there and loving it.

So watch out David Beckham!

Easter Weekend & Fun on the Farm


Over the Easter weekend we headed up to Idaho to spend the holiday with Clint's side of the family. Friday afternoon Clint and I left the kids (except for Tyler) with Clint's mom and spent the day and night in Pocatello. It was really nice to just have a relaxing day to go shopping, have dinner and go swimming. We even met up with our good friends, The Abercrombies, while there and got to see their new baby.

When we got back Clint made sure the kids all had a fun time on the farm. They enjoyed rides on the four-wheeler, riding horses and even helping feed a baby calf whose mom died. The kids always enjoy their time there and love being able to run around.

Making Candy



About a week ago Grandma Nana sent the kids a package in the mail and inside was a candy making kit. The kids were so excited and love the little projects Nana sends our way. So on Tuesday we got the supplies out and the kids used their creativity.




I was really impressed at how well they all did in making the chocolate suckers and it was easy enough they all could participate. Each of the kids made suckers for the neighbors and when they were all done, they loaded up their baskets with the treats and delivered them. It really was a fun project that we all enjoyed.

She got me!

In honor of April Fool's Day, my little Macy played a prank on me. I was pouring Abby some LIFE Cereal and out came Rice Krispies. I was very confused, and had forgotten it was April Fool's Day. But Macy sure got a kick out of that and was giggling uncontrollably. She had switched the bags of cereal and put them in the wrong box. Watch out for Macy, she absolutely loves a good joke!

Oregon Istooks

My oldest brother, Butch, and his family came to Utah for their Spring Break. We were able to spend some fun time with them and enjoy their company. The kids loved getting to see their cousins who we haven't seen for 2 1/2 years. Wow! Those who live close to their family, I envy you.

A Quick Visit

Grandma and Grandpa Udy were passing through Utah a few weekends ago and stopped by for the night with us. We love when they come to see us and the kids were thrilled! We love you.

What will $.25 get you?

A ticket to the BYU vs. Utah baseball game. With a price like that, you "have" to go.
