Lower Massacre Rocks

Camping again this weekend… We went to Massacre Rocks again and tried out the "lower campground" because it is open now. 

We had fun drowning worms, (that is what fishing becomes when you don't ever catch anything) hiking, geocaching, and playing in the dirt. 

The campground is really pretty and has some pretty cool trails to hike. I am glad that we had time to explore it a little bit more than the first time we went.

 Clayton got a fake lizard from the visitor's center and named him "Stripes" he had fun burying him in the dirt and then digging to find him. 

 Clayton loved "treasure hunting" he was always excited to see what was in the caches.

 On top of the hill… Clayton said, "The wind is blowing me away guys!"

This is the hill we climbed. Thumbs up dude!

Quincy spent his time trying to eat rocks and dirt every time he thought we weren't watching.

Daddy's Boys

These boys of mine love their dad. I lost hope on Clayton being Mommy's boy a long time ago, I was still holding out on that being a possibility with Quincy… I am beginning to think that he will be Daddy's too! Here's what the boys in my life have been up to lately:

Lawn Mowing Trio :)

They built a birdhouse to put in the tree in the backyard

side note: Quincy's eyes! Holy smokes!!

Clayton is so proud of the birdhouse he made with Dad

Finished and in the tree!

Sunday I went visiting teaching after dinner and when I got back they were roasting marshmallows in the backyard.

Sean took this picture today, they played outside while I was making dinner and Clayton flexed his super hero muscles :)

Cowboys

Love, Love, LOVE these two boys so much!

Easter Fun

We spent Easter with the Wallaces and Grandma and Grandpa Self. We gave our kids their baskets Saturday morning. Then continued the celebrations over the rest of the weekend. Mom and Cliff came to our house while we were at church and hid eggs for Clayton and Quincy to find when we got home. Clayton was so excited to see that the "easter bunny" had come! We had dinner followed by another egg hunt at Tif and Brad's afterwards. 

It was a fun weekend and it was good to spend it surrounded by family. 

I am thankful for holidays that celebrate the important things in life. I am grateful for the knowledge I have of a living Christ who makes it possible for my family to be eternal. 

Happy Easter everyone!
