Sweet's Candy Tour

Yesterday I took the boys and our neighbor, Reagan Long, to tour the Sweet's factory. Sweet's makes all kinds of candy that it ships throughout the world. They are best known for their salt water taffy. The kids really enjoyed it, especially wearing the hair nets, the free taste testing and shopping in the candy store. Afterward we surprised Kim and took him some of his favorite flavors of taffy. This week has been Spring Recess. The boys spring clean in the mornings and then we do something fun in the afternoons. They've been such good workers all week! We've had a great week!

Handsome Rogues

This is Connor and Ian in their 2011 Easter clothes. Thought I'd better take the picture early in case it snows on Easter Sunday (that seems to be the trend this Spring). They are such "handsome rogues" as the Coltons would say. They look so grown up all of a sudden!

Ian's Birthday Party

Ian had his 6th birthday party at the Living Planet Aquarium. He invited friends from his kindergarten class. The party was held in the sunken ship and included a treasure hunt around the aquarium. Everyone seemed to have a great time!

April in Utah

This is what we woke up to this morning! Winter seems to want to linger longer this year. The boys are still wearing their winter coats to school. I'm anxious for this crazy weather to end and feel the warmth of Spring.

Ian's Hip Hop Class

Ian had his first hip-hop/jazz class tonight. He's taking it every Thursday for the next eight weeks. He said he likes it a lot more than soccer. It's nice to see him enjoying it so much. He definitely has Kim's sense of rhythm.

Star Student of the Week

Ian will be the Star Student of the Week next week in his kindergarten class. Here is the poster the two of us made today.

Trampoline Fun

Today was the boys' last furlough day for the school year. We decided to try out a new fun center in Draper called Airborne Arena. It has five different areas filled with trampolines. They had a fun time and it was great exercise for them.
