Sportin a new look!


BeforeAfter
Yes everyone this is Derek! He decided on Thursday night to shave all of his facial hair off. Something he hasn't done in 6 years! The catch is that he didn't tell me that is what he was going to do. My mom and dad had stopped by to drop off a couple of things they picked up for us in town. Derek had gotten in the shower right before they came over. When he came out of the bathroom, my mom and dad and I were sitting on the couch talking. I had to do a double take!! I didn't know who he was. I have never seen him with out his mustache! I think that it looks good but I don't think he likes it. He will be growing the mustache back. We couldn't even get our family pictures taken on Sat. !!

Happy Easter!

This is the Easter Bunny cake that I made for the pot-luck that we had at our church yesterday! My first ever!! I was up until midnight the night before trying to get it frosted without it falling apart! I love the way it turned out though! I woke up today, the day after Easter and relized that we didn't even take any pictures of us or the kids yesterday! I am such a bad mother! We did however take the kids to get their pictures done on Sat. So I guess I am not so bad! :)

Playin in the wagon at GiGi's house!

Brandt is in the wagon and Wyatt is pulling it!
Wyatt is in the wagon and Brandt wants back in!
My grandmother bought them this wagon that has mega blocks in it. Well needless to say they are more interested in the wagon than they are in the mega blocks.

I want to go back to Colorado Mom!


Brandt thought that if he climbed into my suitcase that we could go back to Colorado I guess!! It is sad but it was a cute picture I think! We miss everyone alot!!

Leaving Auntie Kisti, Uncle John, Maren, Auntie Kira and Baby Aislynn! :(:(

This picture was taken right before we were ready to walk out of the door. The night before we left I gave Kisti and Kira pedicures and so that is why the foot bath was out. Wyatt decided he needed to swim in it and Brandt just didn't know what to do with himself!! (He is in the bottom left hand corner!) I didn't even notice Brandt was in the picture until we were a ways down the road!

Opening Gifts!






Thank you to everyone that got the boys a gift! It was so nice of all of you just to even come to the party! We had a great time seeing everyone!

Our "Second" First Birthday Party!




This was the table at the boys' second of two birthday parties. Yes I made the "cakes". If you can't tell they are catapillars. They are made out of cupcakes! I thought they were cute. I found the recipe on kraftfoods.com. The second party was just as fun as the first!!

Playing the Piano

Brant, Maren and Wyatt are playing the piano for Baby Aislynn. (Left to Right)


Maren loves to "play" the piano! She shared her love with the boys! They would always go straight to the front living room to see if someone would open the keys and let them play! Music only a mother could love:):)

Fun at the Park with Cousin Maren!

"Hey Wait For Me Boys!"


Wyatt

Brandt

We thought since there are leg holes on both sides why not swing like conjoined twins!:)


Nobody wants to look at the camera!

Brandt, Maren and Wyatt

"We need a rest."
We took the kids to a park one afternoon while we were there. The kids loved it! They liked swinging the most!

Playin in Auntie Kisti's Kitchen



Auntie Kisti doesn't have kid safety locks on all of her cabinets like we do so the boys had a blast getting into all of her cabinets! Thank you Auntie Kisti for letting us mess up your kitchen!:)

Our "First" Birthday Party!


This was that first of the two "first" birthday parties. The second birthday party is going to be this coming Saturday at my sister's house in Colorado Springs for our family and friends here!

The "first" party was at my mom and dad's house. It was a blast! We had over 30 people come! The kids had so much fun playing with their cousins from Billings and the other kids from church! The main focus was on the blow-up football stadium that Mimi and Grampy (My mom and dad) bought that boys for their birthday! I hope that everyone had as much fun as we did!

Opening Presents!







The boys didn't really know what was going on during the opening of the presents they just knew that once they checked out one present it was time to move on to the next! They got lots of goodies! Thank you to everyone for coming and for all of the gifts!

Eating Birthday Cupcakes!



WYATT
BRANDT

Brandt and Wyatt loved the birthday cupcakes! They had two each and then a bath! They were so messy but they had so much fun!
