April 19, 2009

Here are a few things we have been doing the last month or so. The kids went to Baby Animal Days in Logan with their cousin Trayson, Aunt Sara and Grandma Susan. Grandma Susan took a nasty fall, broke her face and refused to be photographed. She persevered through Baby Animal Days despite the broken face and all the concerned onlookers. Baby Animal Days will get to the best of us. Imagine it with severe facial injuries.

Grandma's sacrifice may have been worth it since later that evening Addie was trying to decide it her best day ever was Baby Animal Days or Disneyland. After much deliberation she decided on Disneyland - but it was close. Addie LOVES snakes. Grandma had to leave while Addie and Trayson were holding the snake. She is terrified of snakes and was getting a little queasy.
Aunt Sara has decided to only have one child after spending the day with her niece and nephews at Baby Animal Days and out to eat. I was home cleaning so we can put our house up for sale. We are moving again! Really, it has been two years. Isn't it a given? This is the second longest we have lived anywhere. Lynden has this place beat by about three months. Tyler got a new job in Ogden. I think it will be a good move but I never thought I would be moving back to the Ogden area.Landry decided to run away from home yesterday. It was his way of proving that he was very mad at us. He put on his hat, shoes and backpack and took off. Without looking back. This is about a block from our house. Tyler finally retrieved him after he rounded the corner. He is very independent lately. Landry chooses his own clothes, puts them on by himself and won't accept suggestions or assistance.
He also decided to potty train himself. This has never happened to me before! My kids are usually horrible to potty train and I was dreading it this time around. I haven't even given it a thought with him. Let's thank his best friend Jaci. I think her good example rubbed off on him. He even wore underwear to church today. We bought him new underwear yesterday and after opening the packages he put on eight pair at once. I guess he was excited.
The kids enjoyed an Easter Party at Grandma Lynne's and Grandpa Tom's house.
They were really looking forward to the Easter Egg hunt.
It was a hit.
We also got some nasty sickness.
Yes, that is who you think it is. David Archeleta.

Kolby and I went to his concert with some friends. We are not big fans but went along for the ride. I preferred the opening act over the rest of the concert. Kolby spent most of his time making fun of all of the screaming teenage girls in the audience. There were quite a few elderly ladies in the audience. I guess that should be expected when attending a concert in St. George.
We did have a fun time with our friends. All of us were there to support Sydney - one of the many enthusiastic teenage girl fans. She was beaming the entire evening. It was a fun night that included a meal at In and Out Burger. I have been craving the food ever since.
