German's Bug Party







German turned 3 years old last Friday and we celebrated with a bug party on Saturday. Thanks to all of German's friends (and their parents) for coming and celebrating with us! One of the great things about AZ is that we were able to have the party at the park and not in my living room! All of the bugs enjoyed bug games, playing on the park equipment, and eating "dirt!"

It's Official...

Probably the biggest news we have to announce is that of the future arrival of baby #3 sometime in early July!

Uncle Dennis and Aunt Annie Get Hitched









Our second week of vacation was spent in Kuna celebrating and preparing for Dennis and Annie's wedding. Everything went nicely at the wedding and reception. We look forward to having Dennis as a part of our family.

German really enjoyed playing with his cousins. He still talks about each of them and frequently tells me that Payton is a silly goose! If any of you cousins want to move to AZ we'll help convince your parents!

Christmas with the Clarks





We had a great Christmas week visiting our Clark family in Utah. We enjoyed a lot of snow and thus a lot of home time! (Side-note: Snow is great for Christmas, but I sure do love AZ. We're back to enjoying our time at the park!)
The boys sure do love all of the gifts they received and thanks go out to all our loved ones for a nice time.

Eli's First Birthday!



Eli turned the big one year old on the 13th, but we celebrated a little later while we were in Utah. We enjoyed a great evening of ice cream cake and playing with family!
Eli is such a joy to have in our family. He loves to laugh and have a good time. Some of Eli's favorite things to do are playing cars with his brother, taking rides in his wagon, and climbing on anything he can - oh, and his blanket and rubbing his hair! What a funny boy!
