What a Beautiful Day!

Today was such a beautiful day, so we decided to meet my mom and grandparents, and aunts and some of our cousins. We had a great time and Kaden loved being able to play with the kids. In fact in the picture that Kaden's not wearing a shirt, he got soaking wet in the Secret Garden and so we took his shirt off and he was shirtless the rest of the time. He loved it! My grandparents got to ride on the Golf cart, and so all the kids wanted to take a ride! Tige just enjoyed the beautiful scenery. It was fun to be outside and can't wait for the warm weather!

Some of Kaden's favorite things are dirt bikes and four wheelers; in fact if asked what his favorite website is he will tell you Honda.com. He has an electric four wheeler and he loves to ride in the back yard. He enjoys looking at anything with an engine and wheels. Kaden and Eric share this interest and can't what for it to warm up so they and go dirt biking and four wheeling.

The past week

This past week there has been a lot that has happened. First off Kaden had his first Dentist appointment! He did so awesome! Eric's little sister is a Dental Hygienist, and so we took Kaden to her office. He brought his Woody doll so that he would be ok. They cleaned his teeth and then the Dentist came in to check for cavities, and he was cavity free!! I was so excited and proud that he had NO cavities. Another cute thing is, on the way to the Dentist Kaden asked me, "Mom after Grandma B is done in Heaven, she will come back and live in the basement and we can go down there and play with her right"? It was so cute. I know those two are so close and I am sure Grandma is watching over Kaden and will throughout his life.

We also heard some more news about our house that we have an offer in up on Traverse Mountain. This past Thursday my Aunt called and said that Bank of America would be looking at our offer Monday morning, which was yesterday! We still haven't heard anything, but lets just say we are so excited! After leaving our last home in Pleasant Grove we moved right in with Eric's parents. It's been a huge blessing to be able to save our money for the past 7 months. But now it's time to be able to have our own space and home. We can't wait. As soon as we find out we will let everyone in the world know!

This past weekend we went to my parents and had fun roasting marsh mellows and sitting around the fire with our boys. I love love the beautiful summer nights. It is so much fun to be able to spend time outside.

Last night we went to Thanksgiving Point Gardens for FHE. The flowers were beautiful! We have a season pass to Thanksgiving Point and the boys LOVE feeding the fish in the pond. Eric's parents came along for the ride. We can't wait till the weather is warm all the time. Bring on Spring.

Happy Easter Weekend

We started out the weekend by enjoying our daddy being home on Friday with us! So we decided to make some Easter succors. I bought a kit and it came with everything. Kaden had a blast making them. Then we also decorated some cool eggs after we were done Kaden wanted to eat all of them, we let him have a few and then saved the rest. On Sunday between sessions we went to my parents house and had an Easter egg hunt. The boy LOVED it! Tige kept trying to take Kadens eggs, but then he was happy as long as he had two tootsie rolls in each hand he was a happy boy! We were sad that the weather was to cold Sunday to be able to have the egg hunt outside, but we had fun and the boys did to. That's all that matters. Happy Easter!

Happy Happy Birthday!

Eric turned the big 28 yesterday!! We started off the day by teaching our Sunbeam lesson, and then later on went to my parents house for dinner, cake and ice cream. My sister Brooke made the cake for Eric and since he works at Zions Bank she thought it would be fun to make an investment cake. Eric has always had a dream to start his own business and call it "Halvorsen Investments" so she wrote his dream business on the cake. Our little Tige woke up yesterday with a horrible fever and didn't look like he was having to much fun. Kaden as you can tell loved eating the cake and ice cream, grandpa put ice cream all over his face and Kaden loved it. Happy Birthday Eric; I am the luckiest girl alive to be married to you, what an amazing husband and father you are to our children. I love you so much and thank you for all your hard work and for always being so positive. I am so grateful that we can be together forever for all eternity. We love you.

Sunday get togethers

Eric's brothers and our sister in laws came over yesterday to grandma and grandpa halvorsen's to celebrate an early birthday for my sweet,good looking, and fun husband! His birthday isn't until this Sunday, which we will post more then. Kaden had a blast playing with his cousins! He gets so excited when they come over to play. It's so fun to have cousins close in his age, they all play so well together.

We LOVE Spaghetti

Tige had some Spaghetti for the first time the other night, and I think he had more fun playing then eating his dinner. Silly Boy.
