Graduation Trip

For our graduation trip we went to Scottsdale AZ with 5 other couples, and most importantly NO kids. It was such a blast. We stayed at the Kierland Westin Resort and it was fabulous! The resort was beautiful, and one of the best parts was the complimentary breakfast buffet of omelets, muffins, fruit, sausage, and fresh squeezed juice every morning. Unfortunately I didn't take pictures every day, but we did lots of shopping, laying out, swimming in the lazy river, and fun dinners. We laid out and swam everyday, but didn't get one picture of that. :( No one wants to see me in a swimsuit anyways, so its probably better!

Here we are at dinner at a Mexican Restaurant.Waiting for the Cleggs(they stayed at a different hotel they had a timeshare at), to go shopping and then dinner!At Old Navy, Cody wanted to look like Patrick. "We are the same!"At dinner at Cheesecake Factory....yum!I love these girls, we had so much fun together!Our fresh pedi toes... Shopping and pedi's, seriously the best!The guys surprised us girls after our shopping and pedi's with these acid-wash cut-off shorts they got at Nordstrom's Last Chance for $2. We walk into Grimaldi's Pizzeria and they all stand up... Seriously one of the funniest moments ever! Cody was definitely working these shorts.We told them to all pose, and it was the funniest thing..... The boys went all out!We did not want to walk back to the hotel with these guys so we went beforehand so we could take pictures and see people's reaction. Hilarious!We went to an Arizona Diamondbacks game. The game was okay, to be honest I didn't watch much of it. It was just fun to be there and hang out with all the girls and guys. They played the Cubs so the guys probably watched the game more than the girls did, but it was still fun to go.Our last day! :( This was our last buffett breakfast and last pool day before returning home to our little ones. We missed our boys a ton, but we did have lots of fun. Thanks Thelma for watching them for us!

Easter

Easter morning the boys woke up to an Easter basket and a "small" Easter egg hunt in the family room. We had to put the gate up the night before so they couldn't go downstairs without waking us up first (yes they are our alarm clocks, well mine anyways) :)Man, the Easter Bunny is a good hider...They boys showing off their loot! Each got a new Easter shirt, new car launcher with 4 or 5 cars, and of course lots of treats! Ty has been doing this "chin lift" smiling thing lately. Still cute, but I love his smile so I would love for him to figure out how to get his regular smile back. :)Thanks Easter Bunny for a fun morning, now its off to get ready for church and have a special Easter Sunday at church which is the main reason why we celebrate Easter. Here are some hurried pics before church. My boys need haircuts in a major way....their hair won't spike or do much at all, so hopefully next week we'll get to the haircuts! I just love these 2 little boys so much!And these 3 boys more than anything in the world!It is impossible to get a good family pic with a timer as well as a 4 and 2 year old in that picture. Oh well, they are both looking, right! :)

Graduation Day!

Jeremy officially graduates today from BYU with his MBA. He did such a great job these last couple years it was fun to have a day to celebrate. There is dad with all the grads!The boys did so great! It was 3 hours long and I was super worried about it, but they had movies, books, and lots of grandparents there to help entertain them. Cute boys...After the convocation was just a party of saying hello and good-bye to all of our friends. It was fun to have so many friends and family around. Such a fun day!Jeremy's mom...Jeremy's dad...Oh Patrick.....where is your robe? He was ready to be graduated and returned it before all the pictures. Our future grad with chocolate cake on his face! Thanks Grandma and Papa Weichers and Grandma Burgon for playing with the boys while we chatted and took pictures. :)Jackson and his buddies always have such a great time!My 3 favorite boys! Could they be any cuter?
