Ducks are back

The ducks came back to visit us! Kids were happy they came back.

Pillows and Lunch Date

Braxton is obsessed lately with taking pillowcases off of all the pillows and then hiding in them. He loves it and I find naked pillows all over the house.

Thought he was so cool being able to put a crayon behind his ear! Love this little man

Was was excited she could do it too!
These 2 little ones were Jarel and mine's date at Red Robin for lunch!

Magnets and Monkeys

 Tyler built this all by himself with the magnets

Braxton going on a hunt with his monkey backpack…AKA leash

Haircuts and Roller Blades

It was snowing outside and cold when I took the picture
But wanted a before hair cut picture!

She wanted to try and donate her hair to Locks of Love but it needs to be 2 more inches. She decided to trim it up and cut some side bangs and when her hair is long enough she will come back!

This little one was so excited to get her hair cut! She has been counting down the days until hair cut day was finally here.

Finally getting a professional haircut! He wanted to keep it longer up top so he could still spike it up.

Braxton loves rollerblading in the kitchen. Today he sported the diaper look! He actually did quite well while holding onto the counters or appliances.

Gems

Found these gems on the I-pad from Makena and Tyler

Valentine's Day

2 dogs up at This is The Place (Love and Willow)

Having a Valentine tea party

Kids were excited to get chocolate Valentines 

Hailey got this cute Minnie purse that she got to color from Marc's parents (Lynn and Clare). Hailey was so excited that she got to see Marc's dad today. It was a nice surprise. 

The kids picked Arctic Circle to go eat at. Here Braxton is licking his corn dog (really his fry sauce)

Next we took the kids up to This is The Place.
A lot of stuff was closed due to the winter months, but they had animals out that we really enjoyed. Makena really liked this 9 month old horse.

No Snow

It has been a crazy winter this year. We have been above average for over 30 days. And some days have been in the mid 60s. It is weird being able to play outside in shirtsleeves with no jacket and even flip flops in February! Needless to say the weather has been nice…but we need some moisture in the state.
Well we were outside playing and Braxton wanted to sled…he soon found out that the sled doesn't work without snow. He was very disappointed.

But riding in Dad's truck made up for the no snow! Not the best picture, but it was so cute watching the 2 of them chat while driving home from picking the kids up from school!

Visiting Marc and Grandparents

Valentine's for Great Grandma and Grandpa Hathaway

Hailey wanted to bring Marc Valentines so we headed up to the cemetery today. The kids were surprised to see the bunny we left was still there.
The kids also liked walking around the cemetery and finding the oldest grave they could. They also found a section dedicated to pets. They had fun.
