Kaden is 17!

Kaden turned 17 on April 14th.  Hard to believe he is that old.  He has a new hobby, robotics and has been busy building a robot with the Atlas Engineering Club.  For his birthday he asked for an Arduino so he can program things....???  He continues to be a great student.  We love you Kaden!  We went out to eat at a fancy Mexican restaurant in Ogden and ate apple pie for dessert.

April Fools Day

I tricked the kids by making them sundaes.  I told them they could have dessert before dinner so they were really excited.  The sundae was mashed potatoes with gravy.  Sounds good but it was cold.  It looked just like a hot fudge sundae so they were very sad.  Talmage started crying!
They had fun the whole day playing tricks on each other.

Spring Break

We went to Moab for Spring Break.  It was fun to get away for a few days, especially since the weather was cold.  We invaded Chad and Margaret for four days!  They were very nice and we had a great time.  We visited Arches National Park several times and hiked around and I even went mountain biking.  The kids loved riding Chad's chopper and playing with Wred.

Easter Fun

We had a fun Easter this year.  We had a big Easter egg hunt at Grandpa & Grandma Stoker's house with the cousins.  Grandpa caught one baby bunny in a trap and the grandkids caught three more.  We took home two bunnies, Peter and Cottontail.  Peter is black and Cottontail is brown. They have been fun to hold and fun for the kids to take care of.   We haven't had any pets for a long time so this is heaven for them.
We were also able to spend some time with the Harris Family at Wred's birthday party at Draper City Park.  We had fun playing kickball and eating cake with them.  Grandma Harris came up to visit on Sunday afternoon. It was a beautiful day outside so we roasted hot dogs and had a picnic.
