Our fun roadtrip to Nauvoo. What did we ever do before tv's in the car??
We went to Carthage Jail with MaKell, Adam and my parents the morning after we arrived. I am so grateful we were able to experience that.
Poor Uncle Adam burned his fingers at the Family Center. Someone tricked him into touching a pan that just came out of the oven.
We spent a lot of time at "Pioneer Pasttimes". Its a fun place for the kids to wash laundry, do pioneer chores, play school, and other fun pioneer kid games.
My Dad is a seriously good weaver now. You need a rug, he's your guy.
My Dad showing us how to make a rope. He turned it into a jump rope for the girls.
Emma Smith/Joseph Smith/Hyrum Smith graves
My mom and dad in the Sunset production. It was so fun to watch them sing and perform.
We were in Nauvoo at the same time as Dan's sister Barb's family. It was so great to see them and spend time with them too. This is Lacy, Mercedes and Indie above.
There was a lot of fun activities right before the Joseph Smith Pagent started. Dan gave us a ride on the handcart, the kids played tug-o-war, danced, went to a puppet show, sack races... Got them all tuckered out so they would be good for the play, and they really were.
Yay for presents
Dominic got a crocodile pool and didn't appreciate the cold water like his sisters
After he deliberated about this cake, he thoroughly tore it apart before he took his first bite
He shared with the windows and ground very generously and we couldn't stop laughing. The girls thought this was the greatest thing.
I can't believe how fast this year has flown by. This little man has come a long way since his rough little beginning and we can't imagine life without him. We had so much fun celebrating Dominic's first birthday together. We love you sweet boy!!
Dominic's first bluebonnet experience
I got a few pictures of Dominic and Avery in the bluebonnets while Jaeden was at school and never made it back to get some of Jaeden before the flowers died. We'll make it up next year.
We went to pick strawberries at Sweet Berry Farm in Marble Falls with my friend Brooke, her daughter Hailey and Grandma Mimi 
Avery and Hailey
Jaeden asked for a Pumpkin Cheesecake for her family birthday party. I thought that was a unique, but very delicious request.
Avery got her an "Avery" Moxie girl
Dominic gave Jaeden a pedicure set and fingernail polish so we had to bring out the foot soaker and do the whole pedicure thing. We got a little carried away with the bubbles.
We had her birthday party at Texas Jumping Beans (an inflatible world if your not familiar with it)
Pizza and cake. :)
This is Ethan and Rachel. Jaeden and Ethan share the same birthday and therefore feel they are destined to be married. We'll keep you posted on that relationship.
She got a sewing machine from her friend and loves it. We were so excited about all the fun friends that could come and celebrate with us. Thank you so much for your generosity and friendship. Happy 6th Birthday Jaeden!!
We attempted some quick pictures before church started. Like some of you, the kids wore their Easter clothes to church the Sunday before Easter due to conference.

AVERY
I got to come to Jaeden's school and help out with the Kindergarten Rodeo. It was so fun to see the parade and help out with the different activities the kids got to do. They had face painting, horse barrel races, cactus art work and Cowboy Bingo.
