By the River...We had a good friend (thanks Manda) take some pics in Logan Canyon last friday. The sun was really bright and didn't give us a lot of good shots, but Amanda is good and we got quite a few good ones. (enough to fill my frames...) :) Right at the end my boys were finally getting the idea of what we were doing and were starting to cooperate like little 4-yr-olds do and the sun was starting to go down but we ran out of memory on the camera. We weren't sure what we got but as I looked through there's enough and some very good ones I think. Anyways, I thought I would share some...enjoy!
A couple of weeks ago I had the fun time of watching my nieces and nephews from Boise while their mother participated in a bike ride called, "the Little Red Riding Hood" just for women. Abi, Emma, and Logan spent the night with us and we had a party. I took them to the zoo and here they are feeding the ducks. I gave them money before we left the house and told them if they lost the money they wouldn't be able to feed the ducks. As we got over there, they didn't know what they were supposed to do with the money, so while I was waiting in line for the food, I had to stop the kids from throwing the dimes out to the ducks. They thought the ducks were going to actually eat the money instead of buying food. It was really funny. I guess I should have made myself more clear. :)
We walked through the zoo and almost at every gate, all the kids lined up like this to look and watch the animals moving around. We showed up at the right time. all of the animals were out and about.
Along with the zoo always comes the long awaited park! After we fed the ducks (which took a total of about 15 minutes max) we went to the park for a couple of hours, so they could burn some energy off.
here is a "big turtle" that was crawling around. He was really close to the fence and the kids wanted to touch him, but I didn't want them to get their fingers bit cuz he was a little on the hungry side.
Here is the cookies we all made when they spent the night. I topped them with whip cream. It was a fun little treat. We also made popcorn and pancakes and mac n cheese with squeeze-its. It was really fun!
Here is our cousin Shontel, Aunt Tami, Aunt Elise, and Grandma Keller. They all came over for our 4th birthday! 
We got umbrellas from the Easter bunny, and Mommy got us new bikes for our birthday! We are such big boys!
Gentry being silly under his umbrella! There is a nice shot of his new bike's handle bar.
Here is Jeremy hiding behind his umbrella pole. Here is a another half picture of their new bikes.
They were VERY specific about how they wanted their birthday cakes: They both wanted a kite cake, with chocolate frosting and sprinkles, with toys on top and candy. I think I covered it all. :) Also, Jeremy wanted a purple cake and Gentry wanted a green cake.
I must say I think I did a pretty good job!!! You can see Jeremy's purple cake here and Gentry's in the back. I mixed a whole bottle of food coloring into a white cake and they turned out pretty cool looking. The toys on top were helicopters, to make the kite 'fly' They thought it was pretty fun.
Happy birthday to my boys! I love you!!!
Jeremy and Gentry had a great time finding and opening up their eggs to find the prize inside.
In this picture they were on the hunt for some more eggs.
The Easter bunny left a big hollow chocolate easter bunny, to which they of course loved!
Gentry is shakin his egg cuz he hears something inside...hmmmm wonder what it is??
Here are some really cute pics of Jeremy and Gentry playing in the snow. I'm not sure what they found, but they were trying to pull it out of the ground to no avail.
While they were climbing up the hill to go 'far away' Gentry wanted to have Jeremy help him. He said, "let's help eachother Jeremy" and as you can see, Jeremy is pulling him up with him. It was really cute.
With Jeremy's help, they made it as far as they could. They felt like such big boys!!
