It's Been Forever!

Been too busy to blog for the last couple of months... here's what we've been up to:
The first weekend in May we went to Logan. We stayed in a hotel and got to go swimming with Michael's parents and KristEn and Alex. Adelynn wasn't so sure about the whole swimming thing... Sunday morning we took the kids to see the "Castle"-- the Logan Temple.
Our little niece Ava was blessed. It was a great weekend with the extended family!
Then we got to meet our new nephew Samuel! This is him at about a week old... by three weeks he already was chunky in an adorable way! Can't wait to see him again!
On May 13th Brennan turned 5! We celebrated with a tractor/cowboy themed party. Here's Brennan with his Cow Pinata.
EmmaRay showing off those adorable dimples in her pink cowgirl hat!
The cake:
The party got rained out, but not before the little piggies ate their slop (chocolate pudding and marshmallows). We finished the party inside.
The next major event was that Adelynn learned how to sit!
We got to tour the Sweets Candy Factory with some friends... yes, they made Adelynn wear a hair thing too! The way Jelly Beans are made is fascinating!
One night while the little boys were out on a date to a Mother/Son Relief Society party with Grandma & Mommy was at YW's Daddy took EmmaRay to get her a surprise-- her very own big girl bike!! She absolutely loves it and can pedal like a pro!
Adelynn learned to ride a pony!
We had a ward reunion party in our old neighborhood. The kids got to ride a cool train and play on bouncy slides. It was a lot of fun to see all our old friends.
Then we went to San Diego!

Very fun pictures! I love that idea for a party-- I may have to steal it for Ezra's next party-- when he turns 5.
