Warm weather finally came to Utah!

Mom and dad went to Mexico

...Cooper and I stayed with Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Gary...

They had a lot of fun...and so did we!

Easter 2013

Every year I know it's Easter time 

when we head off to the neighborhood Easter egg hunt!

Every year me and Jonah hunt for eggs together.

This was Cooper's first Easter Egg hunt.

Once he figured out what to do...

He got lots of eggs!

"EGG"!

Not only was the egg hunt on my birthday...

but I got to color eggs too!

Easter morning we woke up to fun things in our Easter baskets.

I got the flip flops I really wanted and a Transformer 

and Cooper got some little golf clubs.

Then Cooper spotted a "ball".

Mom told him to get it!

It's the only egg he found.

Then I went around the house to find the rest of them!

Mom bought us ties to wear this year to church.

I asked mom if I could pick a place for a picture to be taken...

 Guess she thought it was so great Cooper should take one there too!

After church all of our family came over for dinner and another egg hunt!

Easter is a super fun day!

I turned 6!

This year I wanted to have a Transformer's Party.

I LOVE Transformers...

LOVE!

Mom did a great job for my party.

We were out shopping the day of my party and I looked at mom and said, 

"thank you for everything you are doing for my party"

(mom got tears in her eyes)

If you know anything about Transformers...

you know they need energon.

and of course...it's not just about optimus...

you have to have both autobots and decepticons.

Mom hung up some of my Transformers for decorations.

All my friends came and we had so much fun!

We had pizza for dinner.

We played Transformer Bingo 

(daddy made the cards for the game)

and then we got to shoot pins with decepticon signs on them

with our nerf guns!

I got A LOT of Transformer guys for my birthday and I LOVE them all!

Mom made little transformer gift buckets 

with fun things inside for my friends to take home.

Saturday was my real birthday!

I asked for doughnut holes for breakfast

Then dad surprised me with a new bike.

I'm still not sure I like it.

It is kinda big and the brake is on the handle which scares me.

I still think I want my old bike...but maybe I'll give this one another try.

10 Years!

10 years ago...

mom and dad got married.

They celebrated by themselves on their anniversary day, 

but the next day dad stayed home from work 

and after school we had a family day.

We went to Park City to see stuff built with legos.

They were cool!!!

 all legos...

even "Meows" with legos

Then we got to build with legos.

For dinner we went to sushi...

Cooper spent most of dinner feeding his rice to Elmo.

Congrats to mom and dad!

and thanks for fun family day...

St. Patrick's Day

This year St. Patrick's Day was on Sunday,

so mom bought us new green church shirts.

and lots of other green goodies and gold.

Then she made us green pancakes...

 with fruit on a stick to look like a rainbow.

 Mom told me that if people aren't wearing green on St. Patrick's day

you get to pinch them.

I told mom that "our family doesn't do that because pinching is not nice"!

Oh...and before I went to bed that night...

I pulled out my second loose tooth!

Luck 'O the Irish

Mom says I'm part Irish.

I don't know what that means.

St. Patrick's Day is when you wear green and there are these little men called Leprechauns that hide gold at the end of the rainbow...or something like that.

You decorate with 4 leaf clovers...or 3 leaf because mom likes how they look better.

Mom came up with one project using glue and paint.

I came up with the other...Painting clovers for the wall.

I think my idea was better.

That's all I know about this holiday.

I just hope I get a surprise!
