Karsten is 5! :)

Happy Birthday to our cute Karsten!  I can't believe my baby is 5.  He is such a sweet boy.  He loves to be on the go and try to keep up with the big kids.  He loves school and soccer.  His favorite toy is his stuffed dog JJ (reminds him of AJ) and he takes him every where with him.  He loves to give hugs and kisses and wants to do everything by himself.  We are so lucky that he is the baby of our family.  We love you Karsten!

Breakfast menu was Coconut yogurt with granola.

He is a little obsessed with  Pokeman right now. :)

All Karsten wanted to do was go to Chucky Cheese for his Bday dinner. (Lucky us!:))
But he had so much fun.  There was a constant smile on his face.

Then back at home for a giant Chocolate Chip cookie.

Waiting for presants...

He got his very own scooter...

A ninja costume...

 another dog - but this one has a light so he can see at night.

I think he had a pretty good bday.  Up next his party..

Field Trips and Turn

Koby LOVES to take Selfies.  I am glad the kid has confidence!  He went up to Hill Air Force base with his dad on a field trip.

The plane His Great Grandpa Howard use to fly.

It might fit..... :)

Mikaela in our Stake musical production Turn.  It was so much fun!!

Hanging in the halls before the show.

Karsten got his kindergarten shots and didn't even cry.  This kid is tough!!

Helping in Kai's class for a party. - I have no clue what face Kai is making.  The kid is a goof. :)

We finally got our swing set in.  The kids love it!!

Spring Time

Makai's class had a wedding between X and Z.  It was really cute. :)

Blowing bubbles...

Eating cake with friends.

My wonderful Sunday school class.  They were thrilled I was taking a picture of them.

January Bdays and one photo bomber. (Koby)

The Easter Bunny came.

My very handsome boys. :)

 I love spring.  I picked these flowers and then put my eggs on them. They were gorgeous!

I have been looking for a round table so I took a picture to show Matt.  Karsten thought he needed to be in it.  I can't complain because he is so stinkin cute!!

Winter days

Hanging after dinner.

I have been spring cleaning.  I found face paint and Karsten was really bored so he got Matt to pain his face.   All he said is that he wanted to b e really scary.

I took Matt cross country skiing for his bday.  He didn't like it half as much as me. :/

The bday boy turning 41. (He actually has been telling everyone that he started to count back down after he turned 40.)

Lots of loves to try and stay warm.

Karsten wanted this for lunch.  I was so excited!!! :)

Koby is doing great at Karate and keeps advancing belts. :)

 Kai made this creation and wanted me to take a picture to send into Lego.  (Hoping that he could get in the magazine.)

Valentines day - I attempted cinnamon rolls in heart shapes. :)

This boy only wanted me to be his Valentine.  Love him so much!!

We took a trip down to Mesquite for Mikaela's soccer and this little guy couldn't even stay away to eat his favorite pancakes and hash browns.

They always think the leprechaun is going to forget, but he never does! ;)

Another soccer tournament down to Vegas.  This time it was just me and Kaela.  It was so busy there that they only had a convertible mustang left to rent.  So we went with it and boy did Mikaela have fun!! :)

It was a great day to fly a kite!

 Koby loving Pizza Pie Cafe and their dessert pizzas.
