Quite a great accomplishment. He is doing well on his blending sounds also. He gets an award for that, that I hope to post soon. Congratulations Max!
Micah needed help getting boxes to move and so we went on that hunt and had quite the adventure!
"Emma in the Box"
The absolute must was that the dumpster had to not be a food establishment and clean.... Petco met this criteria.
Then it was expressed that the liquor store had the best boxes and they usually kept them...... so off we went....
VEry interesting boxes, pictures of swans, kangaroos etc...
Tumbling towers!
Micah on "the bike" @ D.I.
All suited up. "Nice Bike"!!
Oliver told me "Is it today?" meant was it morning and indeed it was Easter Morning!
Grandma's have the best toys!
Micah and Stephanie asked Emmaline to "dog sit" while they went to Virginia on their job search. Both dogs liked to sit near or on anyone who was sitting down.
When Savannah and I went on a special date Tyler and Emmaline planted a garden, parsnips, chard, beets, and radishes.
Emma was such a good dog sitter. Megan wasn't sure she wanted another dog.
Easter Bunny Gifts!
Coloring Easter Eggs! Aunt Georgia even had camo coloring for the eggs.
Savannah colored some beautiful eggs too!
Camo man's hands.

Sorry it has taken this long to reblog, but the kids in Utah are a very busy group. I hate going for the one reason that now I know some of the things that I am missing! And as usual it is a whole bunch of things. Glad you all have such wonderful things to do and accomplish. Good for you.
Emmaline had a friend invite her to a Masquerade Ball and this is the before picture of that activity.
The ward had a talent show and Savannah made a cake. Tyler showed some art pieces, Emmaline and Savannah both made felt animals and Emma and Oliver read an animal book together. Tyler maybe you could put your video of that. I can't seem to be able to input video, don't know how so many of you can do that.
Emma then made a few more Creations of natural things.
This is what Utahans do on the first day of sun after such a hard and long winter. We stayed outside for a good long time. Sidewalk chalk, wind spinner thing, blankets pillows and wonderful sunshine.
Jaim and Jody brought "Monster" and the children just loved it!!
Helping Mom "BLASTER". We did get this small job done. But of course other things didn't.
Back yard fun! Only in Utah can you just slip outside for a little sliding.
Little Miss Katie ready for church.
Dad did just great without me and did so many things getting ready to leave this house and get it ready to just leave or rent. And for those who maybe don't know yet, we are on our way to Norfolk/ Virginia Beach area about in June. They wanted LaVar there as soon as possible but he has some work related things to finish, and we have the house things ready to finish. Then comes the puzzle about what to do about the reunions...... . We checked the Coloma Resort Website and it looks like some tent spaces (their tents and beds are still available.... it doesn't look too expensive... let us know what you are thinking about for this.
Tammy's plans: You can check out the place, just google 'Coloma Resort' , it looks like a nice place and Cecile says the area is very nice. It is between Auburn and Placerville. Arrangements have been made for us to be there the evening of the (June) 13 ( arrive), all day the 14 (the reunion), and morning of the 15 (leave). Each family has to make their own reservations on the on line site.
Tim I don't think you and Laura are getting the emails are you? Let us know so we can get that corrected if that is the case.

I thought these pictures were wonderful! Hey which kid painted their hand and arm in grey paint the night before the report on Emus? Was that you Micah? I thought that was so original and it looked so good we didn't want to clean it off and do it again in the morning so you just slept with it that way, do you remember? It is a great story and you did very well on the report also.
Carrots! Carrots and parsnips that can be dug up in February and be enjoyed. We got this big crop just last weekend. The parsnips were wonderful and the carrots are good too. Some were small but still worth scrubbing and eating.
Oliver and Evan do you remember digging some baby carrots in August? You thinned them some and they would have grown bigger if they had had more space.
Carrot man with a baby.
How does a carrot grow like this?? It looks like a carrot man without a head and holding a baby carrot.
We roasted these when we had some people come to dinner on Sunday. They are very good. The parsnips were the best. Great- Grandma Cecile said parsnips are better after the freeze comes.
I will bring some of these with me when I come this week.
