HONEYMOON/10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY
We celebrated our 10 year anniversary by cruising with The Honeymooners (Nate & Erica). We had so much fun...it was amazing!
Ready to relax and catch some rays...actually the rays caught us...talk about one bad sunburn.



and.....I'm a dork!


That was amazing...getting the works while listening to the sound of the waves crashing. Some light music in the background, a warm breeze and the smell of the sea!





Learning the Thriller Dance! Jeff won.


Ready for another feast!


Our little babies. Sea turtles are so cute!


Stingrays are not so cute!






BOATING WITH FRIENDS

Cute Kellan

Best buds!








CITY CREEK PEDAL FEST

Jeff and I competed in our first Mt. Bike race. We both competed in the sport division which was a total of 21 miles. I think it is safe to say this was the hardest thing I have ever done. I ended up taking 4th in the women's race and 2nd in my age group. SOOO hard but sooo much fun!
BEAR LAKE

Burks loves sand

Ammon loves to drive the wave runner. Becky and Kurt are brave passengers.


Jeff jumping the wave runner....not really but it kinda looks that way.


Kurt switching life jackets while on the go.


Grandma and Grandpa taking care of all the little kids so the big kids could enjoy the the water. The kids loved hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa.


Caden, Kellan & Burklee
lil cousins loving the water!


Beautiful Burks staying warm in the boat!

Jeff having fun and enjoying the great water we had all day.

KIDS PHOTO SHOOT

This was one crazy photo shoot. I am pretty sure our photographer was ready to kick us out after three minutes. I know I was ready to scream after two minutes because my kids were not cooperating. Burklee would not leave any hair accessories on, she was fussy and out of control. Kellan was fussy and his pants were way to big and they kept falling off. Poor Ammon got neglected and we later realized he had food on his face and a booger in his nose. To top it off the twins got in a huge fight and then it went downhill from there. With all the chaos we were lucky to get a few good shots.




Burklee pulls this face all the time and I LOVE IT!





THIS SUMS IT UP

Look at the mess this dang cell phone caused....

Burklee tries to take the phone away....

Kellan gets super ticked and goes in for the head-butt....


he knocks her to the ground....


fight ends...nobody is happy!


could it get any worse....

I think this sums it up!

BIG 5

Little baby Ammon 5 years ago.
FRIEND PARTY
So I tried to be fancy this year and make a cool cake and I realized two things:
#1 I DO NOT have enough patience to make a fun cake
#2 I do not have skills in the cake department

(Kari...I don't know how you do it)


Birthday Boy trying to bust open the fire truck.


The fire department showed up and surprised the kids.
They all go to go on a little ride in the truck. They all had such a great time. I even got to go on a ride because the girls wouldn't go without me. It was pretty cool!


Group Shot







FAMILY PARTY


Lovin his new bike
FYI...the football jersey he is wearing was mine back in the day (oh how I loved Dan Marino).

(this cake looked much better about 10 minutes prior to this photo)
His favorite gift....Mario P.J.'s

ONE WILD AND CRAZY MARCH

We started off the month by traveling to Arizona with the softball team.
You may ask why this child is coloring when there is a warm and inviting swimming pool right next to him. Ammon decided he didn't like water...nice timing boy. I enjoyed the pool while he worked on staying in the lines.

Ammon and I enjoying the warm weather and some softball.

While we were in Arizona I got to celebrate my birthday by going to Jeff's favorite place...I'm not bitter at all!


Jeff helping out the team during warm-ups.


Next stop...Washington.
We traveled to Cheney to watch the Women's Big Sky Basketball Tourny.
Talk about a super nice hotel! Equipped with fancy cribs and a shower that was top notch.


Ammon decided he likes swimming now...and now we can't get him out of the pool. The babies both enjoyed it too.

Kell's and Jeff having a blast together.

We had to turn off all the lights and quietly sit by the door so the babies would go to sleep. Well, here is a good way to keep us quiet. Might I add we are currently competing against each other in a 12 week exercise challenge...shows how motivated and dedicated we are.



Let's not forget about St. Patrick's Day.
Yummy!

And...I headed off to New York!
I went with Kristy, Tanner and Jean to see Becky, Brandon & Caden.
Of course we had to go see Dr. Oz (He's my favorite)!

One awesome show! LOVED IT!


Out for a stroll at night over the Brooklyn Bridge. It was so beautiful!


Back Home...
I started off standing and ended up rolling and sliding down the hill. It wasn't pretty by any means.

Kristy working on her tan.

The boys deep in conversation.
I think that caps off the month of March.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Burklee & Kellan are already ONE!
Talk about the fastest year of my life...wow!

Ready to blow out the candles.

Trying out their new swing. Kellan wasn't so sure about it.

Aunt Kristy feeding Kellan his cake in the living room.
One year old + chocolate cake = huge mess on the carpet!
Next year we are having their party at Kristy's house :)


Hers Pretty!
She loves to eat just like her mom.
