Ezra's 3 day 3rd Birthday!

I can't believe my little Ez turned 3 on June 9th.  He woke up on his Birthday to streamers hanging from his door and his room full of balloons!  He was so excited!!!

 So excited to open his presents!

 The next day we had Sunday dinner at Grandmas so I made him a basketball cake per his request!  (Don't mind the random backwards "1" candle to make 3 candles total.)

 And the Birthday party was the next day (Monday the 11th).  I made him basketball cupcakes and we went to Chuck E. Cheese!  (He has been asking for MONTHS to go there for his birthday!)  So we had all of the kids dress in their sports attire.

 We had dinner at our house first so we could have more food for lots less money!

 Then we headed to Chuck E. Cheese for games, cupcakes and presents!  Ez and Ryker!

Doing what he loves most....shootin hoops!

 The cutest cheerleaders ever!  Jovi, Maddie and Anna!

 Ez and Mac!

 The dream team!  Move over Utah Jazz!!!

 Look at all those fun presents!  Ezra was in heaven!!!

Easter egg hunts!

This past week we were able to participate in 2 easter egg hunts. One at a friends house (Thanks Heather!) and one in our neighborhood. Heather always makes things so fun so the kids got to make bunny ears and got a pink nose and whiskers for the complete look. Ezra and Anna had so much fun! (Yes Anna, not Jovi, I left her home with Kyle! I think she will be able to enjoy it better next year!)

My cute little Easter Bunny!

One of our fun neighbors, Stacey, planned a little egg hunt with a bunch of people in our neighborhood. The kids had so much fun! (Jovi this time instead of Anna!)
Can't get these two to smile at the same time so we get two weird looks instead:)

Jovi's First Birthday!

I can't believe Jovi is a whole year old!!! She still seems like a baby to me (maybe I just don't want her to grow up knowing she is my last one, which was a huge relief a year ago after that horrible pregnancy, but one year later is kinda sad!) Anyway, we had a little party for her a few days ago and here are just a few pics of the birthday girl...

Jovi and Ez with all the presents.

Mezmerized by the flame!
Loving the frosting!
Thanks to all the friends and family that celebrated with us!

Swimming

I had Jovi in swimming lessons for the past 8 weeks. I took her to the same place I took Ezra when he was 6 months. It's a Parent/Tot class and its just a fun way to get them used to the water. The first week she wasn't a big fan but after that she LOVED it.

Wow Check out that cleavage she's got:) haha!

The next few pics are just from different rec centers that we took the kids swimming.

Ezra loved going down the slide!

These two are such little fish and LOVE the water!

Santa pics.

Still playing catch up with Christmas pics. These were our pictures with Santa taken at our ward Christmas party. Jovi screamed in all of them and Ezra had to be touching Kyle while he kept his eye slyly on Santa...haha!

I love that Ezra is not looking at the camera at all but at Santa out of the corner of his eye with an unsure look on his face!

December activities

I know I'm a little late but I want to keep up as best as I can for my own scrapbooking. These are just a few pics from some of our December activities. (I still have to do Christmas pictures...hopefully soon!) Festival of the Trees.

Ezra and the Trains! Our friends Heather and Ryker invited us to see their Grandpa's trains and they were so AWESOME! Ezra had so much fun and talked about it for days! This is just the bottom half and you can see how many tracks there are! Thanks Heather!
We celebrated our 9 year anniversary on December 12th. We enjoyed a nice quiet dinner at 5 Alls!
Temple Square to see the lights...

The mall train with the kiddos (the picture is kinda crappy but it was the best one I had)
Ice skating...we had a family get together for a cousins birthday so we decided to strap some ice skates on Ezra too...it was hilarious!
