Oregon Trip

These are just a few of the pictures from our Oregon trip. We loved being able to spend time relaxing and seeing such wonderful things. It was a lot of fun. We want to thank Grandma and Grandpa Johnsen for taking us. We loved being able to spend time as a family. The ocean view was great and the sunsets were unbelievable. We loved being able to have the kids be able to play together on the beach. It was a lot of fun. We will have to post more of our fun pictures.

Visit With Cousins

Look how cute these two are together. The first picture is at Dinosaur Park. The other three are at Grandma and Grandpa Johnsen's house. It was fun having Hannah, Chris, and Dani here to visit. The cousins played great together. It was funny how Hannah followed Ian around. We enjoyed seeing our cute niece again. It is amazing to see how kids grow in such a short little time.

Day out with Thomas

A few weeks ago we had a chance to go and have a "Day out with Thomas" Ian's favorite thing. We went for a train ride, got pictures with Thomas, had lunch, listened to music, they had a magic show. We also had a picture with Mr. Conductor. Ian fell asleep and woke up just as we got there so he was still trying to wake up, he didn't have as much energy as he usually does. He was also sick as well. It was still a fun time.

Mr. Trouble

Ian is turning into one of the funniest kids that you have ever met. He is always finding ways to make us laugh and also new things that we have to make sure it is baby proof. We have tried to baby proof everything. He is getting so tall and so heavy. It makes for a good workout lifting him up and chasing him around the house and of course his favorite place outside. He is growing up way to fast. He is such a handsome kid. Maybe that is a little bit bias, but I think as parents we are suppose to think that way. We want to wish all moms out there a Happy Mothers Day!!!!

Climbing On Up!

Our darling little Beanie learned a few months ago how to climb on his highchair. A few days ago, he learned how to climb on the highchair with his tray on top!! He climbs up and stands on the tray. Not to mention everything else he climbs on and in, like the oven. The other pictures are of Ian in his new Thomas the Tank Engine swimming suite. He pulled it out of the laundry basket and tried putting it on, so we helped him. What a good looking kid huh!

Yard Work

These were so pictures after working in the yard Saturday. Ian was so tired, but was being so cute and funny. He kept posing and smiling for the camera. The picture of Ian in the tub is him with all of his trains, and his hoe. He has so much fun with them.

Saturday was a beautiful day outside and our yard was overdue for some attention, and Ian wanted to be outside!!! So, we took his little lawn mower out and he helped me mow the lawn. He was so darn cute!!! He stayed right along with me and had so much fun! After he helped Ben to pull the weeds and clean out the flower beds. He had his rake, shovel, and hoe and loved to dig in the dirt and play with the big worms. (Mommy didn't like that part very much-yuck!!!)

Easter Morning

These first few pictures are of Ian last year on Easter. They were so cute, I just had to share. He was about 6 months old.

Easter morning we woke up and at first Ian was a little upset because he wanted to take his diaper outside. He loves to be outside. So I took him out and he wanted to stay out!!! After we got him calmed down we went to the living room and Ian found a huge basket and his favorite thing, a rake, shovel and hoe!!! He was so excited and walked around the house with all of them. He especially loved pulling all the grass out of the baskets. He found some more eggs hidden in the house from the Easter bunny.

After church we went over to Grandma Greenhalgh's house and the whole family was there for dinner and another egg hunt. It was a great day.

Here are some cute pics of Ian and the Greenhalgh cousisns at Grandma Greenhalgh's Easter egg hunt. The total number of grandkids on this side is now 21, with two more on the way! :)

We are so blessed to be members of the true church and to have the knowledge that Christ lives and that we to may have those blessings.
