Playing at Poppy's
The cousins had a great time this weekend together! They are all at ages that they can finally start playing together and enjoying each other. It was interesting to see how Colby & Kipper played together, vs. Jackson & Kipper....I think a good time was had by all! In this picture, they all hopped into Kipper's Tony Stewart Car....seriously, we didn't even have to stage this picture :)
The boys spent most of the two days out in the backyard....They all ended up with sunburns and scratches, but they had a great time together!! The sandbox was a big hit with them all :)

Colby was obsessed with their big dogs, Amo and Ace. He spent a lot of his time at the fence talking to and feeding rocks to the doggers. Every time they'd stick out his tongue, he'd mimick the action. Oh, and Baby (Colby's manatee he sleeps with) was snagged by the dogs one time and lost a fin :( Good thing Daddy found the fin and Nana performed surgery to fix him!!

And here he was feeding Ace an extension chord :) 
Kipper and Colby sat at the fence by the dog run and fed the doggies rocks, for about an hour! They were so cute together :)

Poppy & the boys sat outside all day Saturday just playing...Colby & Poppy had a good laugh here!

Easter Egg Hunt
When had some travel troubles on the way up to Susanville Friday night...We ended up getting delayed, changed flights, and then had to wait around to get our luggage off of the original flight...We ended up staying in a hotel in Reno that night, and Kaleb didn't get to our room until 12:45am with our luggage....But the trip got much better Saturday morning, when we made it to Nana & Poppy's house, and went right to a big Easter Egg Hunt at the fairgrounds. All the boys had fun!!!
Colby walking to the hunt...he looks like he's on a serious mission!!
We got there just in time for the 2 & under group's Easter Egg hunt...Kippy & Colby ran out there and picked up some eggs!!
Nana & Colby hunting....
Nana and Jackson hunting for eggs with the 4 year old bunch...They timed it great, so that we could do the 2 year old one, and then run over and do the 4 year old hunt with Jack Jack...
Daddy & Jack checking out his loot!
Nana and Poppy SOOO happy to have all their boys together :)
Poppy & Jackson have always been buddies....Here they are walking back to our cars!

Easter Cookies
Jackson & I got in the Easter spirit tonight and baked some cookies. We had a lot of fun rolling out the dough, stamping out the cookies, baking and decorating them...We're off this weekend to Nana & Poppy's house to celebrate Easter!
We got a little messy during our cookie making..
Our final products!! We made flowers, easter eggs, bunnies, and butterflies! We had a competition to see who decorated theirs better.........Colby voted for Mommy, and Daddy voted for Jack Jack :)
Jack said they tasted good!
Colby wanted to get involved...he's pointing which "coo-keeee" he wants to eat!

Open House
Wooo hoooo!!! Open House is over! Anyone who has experienced the "joy" of getting ready for Open House, will empathize with my excitement!! Weeks of preparation for 1 hour to impress the parents.....My boys came tonight & I got to show them off, which I love to do :)
What handsome boys!
Colby in the Teacher chair :) He was enjoying being spun around....
Jack got to play hand ball with some of the "big boys" from my class...they were so good with him! Colby tried to get in on the "ball" action too..
The boys had fun drawing on my boards...

Here are pics of my boards....Here is my writing wall..They wrote about their hero and brought in a picture of that person...
My Mission Board...we did water color art of each mission, and then in the middle of the California are pictures from our field trip....
Wagon Train Journals....the kids tea-stained the pages & burnt the edges...they look so good! I really like the border on this board...it's wagon trains :)
I took photos of each kid on the jungle gym & then printed them in black & white...turned out awesome! Love my 34 kiddos!!
Square Book Reports, turned into kites.....
Diseno maps...part of California history when Mexico controlled our land....
The kids made little trees that each had an Idiom on it, and the flowers had prefixes on them...fancy tree I made, huh??!!
