Easter Eggs

Averyisms

*Today I told Avery that she had to clean her room before she got any Kindle time. She replied, "I'll be faster than a potato cooking!"

*Out of the blue one day, Avery said, "Did you know that Grandma (Butterfield) has bangs all over her head?"  (Grandma has short curled hair...I guess it does kind of resemble bangs...)

Avery created paper crowns today for the whole family.

Sweet Tyson

I had the following exchange with Tyson today, while getting into the car.
Staci: "I love you, Tyson! Do you love Mommy?"
Tyson: "Mommy!"
Staci: "Do you love Daddy?"
Tyson: "Daddy!"
Staci: "Do you love Avery?"
Tyson: "Vay-vee!"
Staci: "Do you love Corbin?"
Tyson: "Coe-in!"
Staci: "Do you love Grandma?"
Tyson: "Gamma! ...Jeppy!"
Staci: "Oh, Ty, do you love Jeffy?"
Tyson: "I wuh you, Jeppy! I miss it."

Oh, buddy, I miss Jeffy, too. And it breaks my heart that Tyson is too young to remember just how special Jeff was to him.

popsicle kids

3rd grade!

Corbin's first day of 3rd grade.

Corbin and Stockton were so excited to finally be in the same class!

Baptism photo shoot

Some favorites from Corbin's baptism photo shoot. They turned out great. He is such a handsome kid!

Kid food

The kids made everyone breakfast and lunch today. Corbin created a breakfast sandwhich comprised of a hamburger bun, swiss cheese, and crumbled graham crackers. For lunch Avery made popcorn in a hot dog bun. Yum.

I need a drink!

Hahahaha! This picture kills me! I laugh every time I look at it. But, I get it, Aves. Sometimes on a hot day at the park, you just can't wait any longer for a drink from that fountain! And there's Tyson behind Corbin, just trying his darndest to be a big kid and drink from the fountain, too.

Grotto Falls

We hiked up to Grotto Falls in Payson canyon for the 4th of July. We invited Grandma Gee to join us. The kids all loved it!

It took Tyson a little while to enjoy playing in the water.
