The Longest Post EVER!

The second Sunday of each month, our "Snowflake families" get together, cousins and all for Family Night. In March we are celebrated a couple of birthdays.


For Cora's 9th Birthday her cousins Kate and Eliza made her a giant birthday cookie! We love living nearby cousins.
Happy Birthday Cora!



Two weeks later Ezra had a birthday. One year old! Diving into the cake....








He licked his presents...









He touched his presents...








He really liked turning one!



















Nine days later, Lynn had a birthday. Happy 34th dad! His brother Chris worked at a bakery where they made Lynn a pink flower cake! So pretty!
















Lynn wanted homemade cream puffs for his birthday.















Easy LOVED dad's cake! By the third birthday in a row, he was really getting the hang of this birthday stuff...









Granger asked for his haircut finally. These were taken in the middle of the haircut. One side cut and the other still long...Pretty stylish, eh? Can anyone say "remember the 80's??"































Ezra at the petrified forest...



























Some WONDERFUL friends from Colorado came to visit and while they were here, we went to the Petrified Forest not far from our house.




















Here the boys are becoming honorary Junior Rangers.



















Then we went and played at the park.
















Turner







Jonah...
















For April Fools day I made the kids cake for dinner and hamburgers for dessert. They were quite confused. They really believed they were eating cake until they bit into it. "Hey, this is meatloaf and mashed potatoes!" He he he....


The hamburgers were vanilla wafers and grasshopper cookies...





Mmmm... potato covered meatloaf cake...



















Two weeks after Lynn's birthday, it was my turn. Happy 32nd!

















Ezra liked to hit us all with my balloon!


































A couple weeks after my birthday was Jonah's. Happy 5th!
