Good Job Shelly!

Just wanted to tell Shelly how proud we are of her. We went and watched her run a half marathon on Saturday. She was awesome and the boys loved being there to cheer her on.

Alice's Easter Dress

I had to post a picture of the dress my mom bought Alice for Easter. Have I mentioned how fun it is having a girl? I'm loving it!

Easter

Just a few pictures from Easter. We went to St. George again and had a great time. Although it did rain on Saturday, we still made it out for the neighborhood egg hunt. They had some great prizes and treats. It was well worth a walk in the rain to be a part of the festivities. Thanks KelliAnn, for signing us up! (The last picture is the egg hunt on Saturday. The others were taken Easter morning after our "private" egg hunt in the back yard.)

Alice is Almost 4 Months

A friend took these pictures for me. She did such a great job. I had a hard time not posting all of them, although I did post most of them. We didn't get too many of her smiling but that's okay. Alice is such a sweetheart. We just love having her in our family. She loves to babble and smile especially when she can watch her brothers. She is so content as along as she has a good view of what they are up to. They are also really sweet with her. I'm sure they will be very protective of her when she gets a bit older.

I just couldn't help myself. Here are some more. She is just so cute!

Jerusalem 10 Year Reunion

I went to my 10 year Study Abroad in Jerusalem Reunion this last weekend in Provo. I really debated on going because I wasn't sure anyone I was close to would be there but it turns out there were quite a few people I was really excited to see. Two out of three of my roommates were there and a lot of dear friends were also in attendance. A ton of memories came flooding back that night. I feel so blessed to have been able to spend 4 months studying in places were the Savior once lived and taught. It really was an experience of a lifetime.
The first picture is with two wonderful friends and spouses (One spouse is missing, obviously. She had to stay with the kids in Maryland.), the second is with my two roommates, Amy and Donalee.

Trip Up to See Grandma and Grandpa C.

We took a quick trip up to see Grandma and Grandpa Christensen. My two brothers were up there too so it was fun to visit with everyone. We tried to let the boys sleep with their cousin Kaylee but that was a bust. Around 10:30 p.m. we decided it was time to separate everyone. I guess it was just too much fun.

Field Trip to the Fire Station

Fun Times. Not much to say about this one. It was pretty exciting to see all the big trucks but the firefighter who talked to us was a little boring for the boys. Their friend in the picture is also named Josh.

Gardening Time Again

I remember posting some pictures last year around this time of our gardening attempts. Neal and I actually took a class to help us this year. We will see how things go. The boys helped Neal plant strawberries, lettuce, carrots, and peas this time.

Yoga and Running with Mom

The boys have been very interested in anything I am attempting to do in terms of physical fitness. I was trying out a Yoga video a friend let me borrow one day and attempting to run around the block another. Tanner has been the most persistent. I kept thinking they would all give up running with me after the first time around the block and they did...except Tanner. As long as I was running; he was running.
