March Catch Up

So I am trying to catch up on the month of March. I just can't seem to make the time to sit and do things as they happen. Yes, I do work better by procrastinating and then doing lots at one time. Crazy, I know! I will have everything on in the next day or so, so be sure and scroll down as I will do them per date.

Montana

We made a very quick trip to Montana this last week. Camron called us and said that he was graduating from the Job Corp program and wanted us to come to his graduation. We left Wed. morning at 3 am and drove to Ronan, Montana. (10 hours). It was awesome to see his graduation. Job Corp is on a Reservation and so we got to experience some culture there with drumming and chanting throughout the ceremony.

He graduated as a Heavy Equipment Operator.

We also got to meet Camron's Fiance, Hajime.

After the graduation, we went out to eat with Camron and then we drove another one and half hours by Flathead Lake to Cassie's.

It was fun to see Cassie and Scott
and their cute cabin.
We got to see a little bit of Glacier National Park in the wintertime the next morning and it was beautiful.
Then we drove 12 hours back home. So basically we drove 24 hours within a 48 hour time period. Good thing we didn't have our kids or that could have been very interesting. It was well worth it though to see Camron and also Cassie & Scott.

Nice Spring Day to Work In the Yard?

So we are letting are kids each have a small part of the garden to plant what they want, but they are responsible for it also.
They were so excited about this that they worked for in the garden for over 4 hours. (That was not forced by the parents.) They even planted a few things.
Then the next morning we woke up to quite a few inches of snow!!! I am so ready for Spring!!

Easter Day

We had to wake up early Easter morning cause our church was at 9. Well, I guess we didn't have to, but the kids wanted to. We did the normal easter egg hunt at home and at grandma's. Grandma also did special eggs that had "Grandma Bucks" in them and then she had a store for them to buy stuff afterwards.

Decorating Easter Eggs

Easter was a lot of fun this year because all of the kids could participate. We didn't have any babies to worry about when decorating the eggs, etc. Babies are great, don't get me wrong, but there is a time and season for everything. I feel like it is a whole new world this year because I have been 12 years with babies or one year olds. Toren of course, like most boys, loved getting his hands dirty while decorating eggs.

Toren's Dress-Up Days

Toren loves to dress up with Kinley, much to his dad and brother's dis-approval. So I just had to document it and have black mail pictures for when he is older.
