A weath of randomness

In February Matt went to a pumpkin convention in Las Vegas, I got to go with him for a night.  He got the 1,500 lb club jacket!  That's right, it's a big deal.  It was so fun to see him get his awards, it brought back the rush of emotion when his las pumpkin weighed in at 1600 lbs!  It is really cool to watch someone you love accomplish something great.

Walt decided to play in the mud.  He is all boy.  Today he told me "hey, my wart is all gone" I asked him how it was gone so fast and he said "the tractors scared it away."  Poor kid, he is going to be sad when we put more wart remover on it tonight.

I got to go on a fild trip with Jane to Farmington Bay.  It was fun to be with her for the day!

I was impressed with the learning center that is at Farmington Bay.  They had some cool things.

Jane really liked all of the birds.

Happy Easter.  These are the only photos I took that day, I know I was a slacker, but we had a really nice day.

Jane, Annie and Audrey at the safe kids fair.  They did a performance with their Up With Kids group.

Jane got to hold a few snakes after the show.

The girls were sad Hyrum was not there to see the Star Wars guys but they still wanted their picture with them.

Three good friends. Audrey, Ollie and Jane

Hyrum is now a whole hand old

I have been meaning to post this now for so long!  I think I have written this post now three times, I apparently don't know how to save things right.  Hyrum turned 5 on April, 9th 2012. 

Happy Birthdya to our little Jedi Hyrum!  He is now a whole hand old, the big number 5!

What would a Star Wars party be with out Prinsses Leia and Master Jedi Matt?  Hyrum thought we were the coolest parents, I hope even when we are not dressed up in Star Wars stuff he still thinks that.

My super talented friend Emily made Hyrum this Awesome cake!  He loved it.

My sweet little Hyrum recently said to me "Mom, do you know what I love more than candy? "  What I asked him, "You and my family"

Hyrum has such a good heart.  He fills mine with joy every day.  I love all his funny faces he pulls when he is talking with me, telling me every little detail of his thoughts.  He gives me more love than I could ever ask for.  He always thanks me for the meals I make him and when I help him get his shoes on any little random thing, and he always knows when I need a pick me up and will tell me he loves me out of the blue.  I love to see his testimony grow.  One of my favorite things is to listen to Hyrum pray. He is always thinking of others.  I cherish every moment with you, my sweet Hyrum, Thank you for being so wonderful.  Happy Birthday!

Walt, Hyrum and Krew

Hyrum ate the head right off of Yoda, it was so funny!  Hyrum is such a joy to have in our family!
