The Brigham City Temple

For my nieces birthday my sister in law Karen thought it would be fun to get the cousins together and play at the park and go and walk around the temple!! It has been so fun to watch this temple go up!!

All the kids, minus Cade!
The boys had fun watching the men work on it. While we were there the big crane lifted the piece they are working on into place! The boys were in heaven!


The front of the Temple! So pretty!

The Aquarium and Dinosaur Museum

I didn't take a lot of pictures here because it was so dark, but here are a few!


"Fishies, Fishies" That is all the he said, he was so happy!




Same for the dinosaur museum, not a ton of pictures!


Brycen's favorite part "tunnel, tunnel"


There is that silly smile again!


He is getting so big!!

The Zoo!

Our 2nd day of fun!!

Waiting for dad to buy our tickets.
Waiting in line for the train!


Dad and Jaxon (this is the only smile I really got fun Jaxon)


Mom with Brycen and Tyler. If you look at Brycen's right hand, he is holding on as tight as he could and we were not even moving yet!! ha ha


Jason with the boys watching baby Zuri!


Brycen watching baby Zuri with her mom!


Every single one of them was worried and scared, they all held on for dear life!! They are always so cautious. I had to hold Brycen while standing there, and he still didn't like it!!


The boys favorite part was the bird show!! They all watched and laughed and were so happy.


Mini "Staycation"

At the end of May we did a little staycation with the boys! We went to Discovery Gateway in Salt Lake, we went swimming, went to the zoo, the aquarium, and the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi. The boys had a lot of fun, and so did we! First up, Discovery Gateway!!

Working together
I don't think that I would like to ride in this car!


Not sure how we got this face, but I love it!


I hope he isn't picking! :)


They all loved this one!!!

Random

One day Brycen disappeared upstairs when Tyler was there for time-out. I knew he was probably sitting on Tyler's bed, because he had just learned how to climb up on it. Well Tyler came down but Brycen didn't, I didn't go and check right away because he wasn't crying or banything. Well when I went up there, this is what I found. So cute!!!! To bad he only slept for an hour, we are definetly ready to put him in a big boy bed!

This boys were watching a show, and Brycen went over and sat himself right in between his brothers, so of course I had to take a picture! Look at that they are all smiling.

This picture was taken about 2 seconds later! It must be a good show!

*I also posted about 3 more posts!

My first born is 6!

Tyler's birthday is only 3 weeks after Jaxon's so it is fun to put them together. We don't ever do anything over the top, but we have fun nonetheless. On Saturday, we went to my mom's for a family party. Then yesterday we let him pick what he wanted for dinner, he opened his present from us, and went and got ice cream at Baskin Robbins.

He wanted to have a star with lemon cake and lemon frosting! Thanks Brittney for the cake pan, it worked out great!!


He loved it!! And I love his dimples!!




He wanted gears, as you can tell he was very happy that he got what he asked for!

Jaxon is 4

Jaxon's birthday was fun, and he had so much fun! He has loved rocket ships lately and that is what he asked for, so I thought that I would attempt to make a rocket ship cake. Thankfully I found an easy design, and he loved it as you can tell from this picture. It is very rare that I get such a cute smile from him on camera!
The finished product, thankfully Jason helped me!


Opening presents

Blowing out candles!

His favorite toy, the rocket ship!!!

Easter

We had a great Easter weekend with 3 easter eggs hunts in one day, plus we colored some eggs, and of course had lots of fun with family. My favorite part of the weekend was when the Tyler and Jaxon woke up we had them come climb in bed with us for awhile. It was fun to talk with them about why we celebrate Easter. I am so happy that them are learning the gospel. It was just a sweet moment!!




Brycen and his "muscles"


Love his face!




The loot from Grandma Eddington!


Brycen patiently waiting for his share in the candy!

This Month...so far

This month we have been trying to take advantage of everyday we can, but it seems like they haven't happened all that often this month.


Of course we have gone to the park!
We have done some climbing!

We got the tramp set up!


Even Brycen loves it!


We did swim lessons for the 1st time. It was fun because they got to be in the same class!


Tyler is a fish!!! He was able to float on his back by himself by the 2nd day!


Jaxon on the other hand is a different story! The last day was the first time she was able to get his ears in the water, as you can tell by his face he didn't like it!



Also he wouldn't put his face in the water until the 2nd to last day, but only for a split second! He is so much like Tyler as this age, very cautious!



But he is not like that any more!! :)


I couldn't leave out the one who kept me company during swim lessons!!! Tyler passed this level with flying colors and Jaxon will need to stay on this level! It was fun to watch them try new things. I am hoping to do at least one more session of swim lessons especially for Tyler since he has shown so much interest in it! We shall see!
