This girl is such a stink. I was helping other kids with homework and this girl got the scissors again not sure how many this is now probably 3 or 4 times she has cut her own hair. She cut it on all sides and right down in the front. I said have you seen what it looks like and took her into the mirror and she looked a little bit sad but when asked if she liked it she said I LoVE IT. 

Nothing slows this girl down she loves a good dance party. 

The kids loved playing in the pool even though it was super warm out yet. 

I took the kids out on a bike ride and they loved it. Taking turns being the leader and exploring. 

Since Quarantine is still in effect we were able to do things as a family and loved hiking the nature park and feeding all the ducks. 

Happy 15 years to us. Wow time really does fly by. With everything being quarantined this year we got to eat out in the car because all dine in are closed and then drive around rexburg reminiscing about the good old days. Love this man with all my heart. 

When the weather finally warms up to 70 it is pretty much summer. So sodas, motorcycle rides, and

Jumping with the sprinkler under tramp is a must.

FHE pretending to be King Mosiah. They loved making there own crowns and preaching from the scriptures. 

Since the kids are now being homeschooled. This girl and I have had less one on one time. But putting on makeup is always a hit in Loxy book. 

 This girl pretty much just took off on the bike. We were headed on a bike ride and corbett gets the bike out and says her locklyn ride this and just like that away she goes. She could not stop smiling and saying mom watch me. She pedals her little heart out to try and keep up with her sister and brother.

Since church has been cancelled we have been able to do it at home. It has been so neat to be able to feel the spirt in our home as we partake of the Sacrament and have home church. It has been a learning experience for everyone and we have finally found our groove. 

Kids loved waking up and getting to go on a scavenger hunt to find there Easter Baskets. 

Brooke and I got to together and did an Easter Egg hunt for the kids they loved finding all of the 24 eggs with goodies and money in them even though the wind was so cold. 

 The kids are starting to like the corona even less now Easter is here and the egg hunt is cancelled. And not having friends come over is not fun either. But dying Easter Eggs was so much fun.

Our neighbors Brooke and Bridget got bunny’s and a house and so Bentley worked and worked so she could get a bunny as well. She named her Rosie and just loved that bunny and corbett even helped make a bunny leash to walk it. 

I think the kids each ate 2 eggs as soon as they were died.

Crew lost his 1st tooth. He said mom look at my tooth it is so wiggley and it hurts. So I told him to pull it out and an hour later still could not get it out even dad looked at it but he wouldn’t let him pull it out. So after many tears I said crew let me wiggle it and I tricked him and pulled it right out. He started crying and said mom there is a huge whole now. After all the tears he was glad to finally have the tooth out and the money the tooth fairy brought was even better. 

Bentley learned lots during Covid she curls hair, backflips, making no bake cookies, 

and making robots out of kitchen items. 

We learned to play with each other games, coloring, and even went a little stir crazy. 

Bentley was helping crew and locklyn to roller skate. 

It was hot and then it snowed got to love Idaho weather. 

Crew had a friend over to play and had such a great time with his buddy graydon. 

The kids got to do karate for a few weeks and then the corona hit and everything shut down. School was closed in middle of March for the rest of the school year. The kids thought it was awesome and quickly learned that they would rather go to real school then homeschool. Mom is not a very nice teacher. It was pure chaos as the shelves in the stores ran out of toilet paper and sanitizer. Flour and sugar were the next to go. So many people from Boise and Pocatello were coming to our little grocery store Dave’s to get food because theirs were running out. Panic started sinking in when church was also cancelled and temples closed. General Conference was only broadcast on tv. They were trying to flatten the curve so not everyone would get the corona at once. As we all Quarantined for a least 4 weeks or more lost track the only things that were open was essential stores. We did stay open PMS because we only had one case in Fremont county. It has been a weird time. 

This girl is so sweet and sassy. She is also very mischievous. When she is quite then you definitely need to check out what she is doing. She got slime in her hair, she always loves to lay right on you and snuggle or just put her feet on you. And she is always the first one to give a hug or see if you are okay when you are crying. She loves loves all fruit.

 She got to give her first primary talk and was a little bit nervous. As Corbett whispered what to say in her ear then she would whisper as well in the microphone. The other primary kids giggled and the look on her face was so cute. She did such an awesome job.

Back Home

We partied till
We dropped literally.

The big hit was the indoor wave park. Corbett went so many times and was able

To get up on his knees and had a few pretty good wipe outs. The kids loved it and can’t wait to go back. 

Epic Waters

All outdoor water parks were closed in April but I found this indoor one and it did not disappoint. It was so awesome we pretty much had the whole water park to ourselves. The kids loved going down the slides. Crew was not tall enough but managed to go down 7 times with dad. He was pretty bummed when the caught him and said wait you are not tall enough. Locklyn loves the kids splash area and played and played. Bentley made a friend and went around the lazy river. 

The hotel was so nice the Gaylord Texan resort we loved walking around and taking pics. 

Even though it was cold outside it wouldn’t stop these 3 from swimming. They loved the hot tub the best. And having dad swim with them. Crew ended up scraping his toe on there big steel door and cried bloody murder all the way to the hotel room. We got many looks. I called down for a bandaid because it makes everything feel better but they ended up sending up an EMT haha he cleaned it and put a bandage on. It really was not that bad but funny in the end to have EMT come up. 

Sea Aquarium

The loved to pretend the were in the water with the fish. 

The sea aquarium was so much fun the kids loved touching the star fish and sting rays. 

Peppa Pig World

Locklyn has been obsessed with peppa pig lately so we decided to try it out. And the kids said they liked peppa pig world the BEST because they seriously did not stop running around . It was pretty crazy all the kids but loved playing tag, building towers, and riding bikes.
