Matthew's Poetry Presentation











For school, Matthew had to select a poem to share in a creative way. The poem he chose was about Zion National Park, and he decided to create his own canyon walls as scenery. He did an amazing job. I was so impressed with his pictoglyphs.




Too cute not to share

Rachel's first pigtails, 20 months.


Spring break visit to temple square to see the flowers. It was so cold that we wore our winter coats!


Elizabeth with her "Kindy 500" car she made (with lots of help from dad) for school. "I want it to be a white pickup truck with pink flowers," she explained.



Somewhere there is a similar picture of me as a baby sitting inside a cardboard box.




Easter Cuties

Easter egg hunt at Lisa & Steve's. The kids made out like bandits!

Emma's 4!

Emma has always adored clothes, shoes, jewelry, and accessories. Believe it or not, these were probably her favorite and most-used gifts. One month later she has worn these flip-flops nearly every day and they are getting old fast!

It was General Conference Saturday, so we shared cake at Grandma Wilson's house before stuffing ourselves with the traditional cinnamon rolls later.


Emma was so thrilled with her butterfly cake. For about six months, she had been asking for a "violet cake". Incidentally, she also went through a "fuschia" stage. Her vocabulary is really cute sometimes! She has already announced that she wants a Tinkerbell cake next birthday (I don't think she quite realizes it's not for another year, but oh well).
