Variety tour from Wyoming

A lot has happened since the last post. In late March we got a visit from the Colorado Butlers during their spring break. The kids had a blast playing with Rohan, Bruce, and Savitri.

John turned 2 the end of March. We had a great birthday party for him.

We made a trip to Shelley during the first part of April to go to the temple. We got a surprise visit from Uncle Scott, Jessica and Kaylee.

We decided to rearrange the whole house. The girls now have their own bedroom downstairs and James has his own bedroom next to Mom and Dad. Here are Grace and Anne helping move their dresser drawers

James learned how to ride a two wheel bike and loves it.

Edwin made a new dining room table out of hickory. Here he is at the shop of Bonneville Builders sanding the top with Grace and Anne.

It was finished just in time for company to visit for Robert's Blessing.

He is getting big so fast.

Uncle Tim, Aunt Amber, Jackson and Kennedy came to visit. So did Grandma Peggy and Grandpa Dave but they were too fast for the camera.

Grandma and Grandpa Butler came with Aunt Rachel, Devon, Tyanna, Zachary and Isabel

Toothless trip to Idaho

Anne lost another tooth this month. This time it was one of the top front teeth.

Robert is getting some good baby chub on him.

We made a visit to the McGary's farm. This momma goat had quintuplets. We got to learn how to milk a goat. Joe now plans to get a milk goat and make us all mozzarella and ricotta cheese.

These babies were three days old when we got to feed them. They are so cute.

We had a fire and weenie roast while out on the lava beds. The kids all learned from Grandpa that dragons live out in them there hills.

February Happenings

Grandma Peggy and Grandpa Dave took a photo with us before they left town.

We were so glad to have them come welcome Baby Robert to the world.

James loves to snuggle Robert. He especially likes that baby has a blanket to match his Christmas dinosaur pajamas!

James and John enjoy having snacks and conversations on the stairs.

Two weeks old.

Averi came for a play date one afternoon while the girls were away. We enjoyed decorating and eating cupcakes together.

Our house is a bit cold some mornings. James and Anne are doing phonics lessons at the computer while eating lollipops. No wonder the girls like home school.

We had a treasure hunt this week for home school. Each clue had review questions for the kids to answer. We enjoyed dad's creative clues and a bit of puzzle solving.
