Easter 2014

Happy Easter!  We hope you all had a great, fun-filled day and nice weather!  The day started off a little dreary here with some rain, but the day ended beautifully.  We spent the day filled with family and fun....and some very tired boys.




A failed attempt at a family picture...

But mom and dad look good!!

And finally some cooperation!

Having fun outside at Gma and Grandpa's



Charlie loves the big balloons

Such a handsome little man :)



Dinner on the deck after playing outside



Loving their new bubble guns!


Still very tired despite a good nap :)

Sunday evening stroll....And Easton decided to ride his bike the WHOLE way!!

Life with Boys

Life with boys can mean so many things.  At our house life with boys means no sleep and little rest.  It means staying on your toes and trying to stay one step ahead.  Life with boys means being creative to keep them out of trouble.




We brought the snow inside since it was too cold to go out!


Life with boys means going through lots and lots of groceries (I can't imagine what it will be like when they're teenagers!).  It means undeniable cuteness and at the same time, lots of bickering amongst them.  It means lots of wrestling and hockey games in the living room.  



It also means lots of nakedness running around!



Life with boys means unbridled energy, playing hard and then crashing hard....








Life with boys means adventure around every corner.  It means curiosity and mischief.  It means getting outside as much as possible to run off all that energy.  




Life with boys means trying lots of new things.  It means early mornings and lots of coffee for mom.  Life with boys means wanting to be a dinosaur, a hockey player, a cowboy, a shubbler, a snowmobiler,  a giraffe and a zebra, a snake handler, a super hero and everything else in between....














My list of "Life with Boys" could go on and on forever.  But most of all, life with boys is full of love and laughter.  It's having a full and happy heart.  I sure as heck wouldn't have it any other way!

Easton's First Time Ice Skating

We've been talking about taking Easton ice skating for a couple weeks now.  Today we finally did it!  Auntie Miki was able to join us as well :)



We rented him some skates since he doesn't have his own yet

Dad laced him up for the first time



And here we go!!








He did good for his first time!


We were able to get him one of these to help a bit....


But in the end preferred to use mom and dad for help :)

right before taking this Easton said 
"skating makes me tired"



A much deserved snack break



Fooling around during break time 


Love this boy to the moon!


All in all I'd say it was a success!  We'll have to try again soon!
