LOST TOOTH

Last night Tarek lost one of his top two teeth. It has been loose for several weeks and was super ready to come out. He is starting to look so much older and not like my little boy anymore.

EASTER EGGS AND A BUNNY!

We headed to the park this afternoon for a neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt! Jake, Jana, Riley and Sage were able to join us for all the fun - And what would be an Easter Egg Hunt without an Easter Bunny!? Dreyken and Riley were so excited. All the kids had a great time and once again I forgot my camera so thanks to Jana for the pictures of the kids. We then dyed eggs later in the day. We dyed some in Coeur d'Alene but the kids wanted to do it again. Now to try to teach them the True Meaning of Easter - Hopefully they remember some of the meaning behind Easter and why we really celebrate this holiday. Happy Easter!

SPRING BREAK (Picture Overload!)

(All of my parents grandkids except for Enoch: From left to right Timberlyn, Kanyon, Riley, Tarek, Dreyken, Kalli, Archimedes, Kaydra, Sage and Miranda)

This past week for the kids spring break we headed north to visit my sister Brooke and her family. My mom and I headed up on Tuesday with Kalli and Tarek (Dreyken was suppose to come and once again she was sick) Jake, Jana, Riley and Sage also come up with us on Tuesday and Markell, Andre and Archimedes were able to join us on Wednesday night. The kids had great time with their cousins, they got to explore the woods around the FitzSimmons house, see a ton of deer, splash in puddles and play in the rain.

On Thursday we headed to a place called Triple Play for Kanyon's Birthday. They had bowling, laser tag, miniture golf, pizza and swimming. The kids had a BLAST! Happy Birthday Kanyon!



On Thursday night, Dan, Dreyken, Paul and my Dad were able to come up (Dreyken only threw up four times on the ride and was totally convinced that Uncle Paul was trying to drive the truck into the lake - I think we have figured out that her medicine is making her have nightmares and anxiety)

On Friday the men and the kids went to see The Lorax while the girls went and explored downtown Coeur d'Alene.

Then on Saturday, the kids colored easter eggs and the real reason we all headed north - Kanyon got baptised! It was such a wonderfule baptisim, he is such an awesome young man and such a great example to his younger cousins (especially Tarek)


Anyway, as you can tell by the pictures it was a fun filled week and we had a great time. Thanks to the FitzSimmons for being such great hosts.
