Tub time!
When I was little I love playing in the tub especially when it was in Grandmas cool tub with my cousins. This is a tradition we are passing on and the kids seem to love it just as much as we did. Mile and Mads where not into it but these three where having a blast.
Stayin' in Stirling
The boys always love going to Grandpa Zoe and Grandma Moje's house, what's better then living with the puppies for a week???? They love following Gus around the house and going out to visit zoe in the back yard.
Miles learned to walk up and down the stairs and despite the mild heart attack he gave Grandpa he never even fell once. He could walk up and down the stairs all day long and be as happy as a pig in mud.
AJ re-discovered some of his favorite movies that we only watch at Grandmas and his love of working side by side with Grandpa. They spent a lot of time out in the garage working on whatever. lol.
Since it was just one week till AJ birthday Grandma decided to throw him a little birthday party with all the grandkids. First we made a 4 layer birthday cake which AJ and Grandma spend a good deal of time perfecting.
Miles and I found our own way to pass the time:
no shame
Then it was on to the Party!!!!! We started out with a dance party, took a few minutes for everyone to relax but eventually we had a really great party goin' on.
Please make sure to take a closer look at Grandmas Dance Face, FAB-U-LOS!
Whats a party with out bloweres?
for dinner was home made Mac and Cheese and AJ request. Usually he wants Taco's since tehy are his favorit food, but he told grandma that it had to be Mac and Cheese today. It turned out great and the kids scarfed it right up! (actually we all did!) Now the moment you have all been waiting for....the pinata! I loved Em's softer approch to the game. I think she loved the little three horns to much! Thanks for letting us use your wooden spoon Grandma! (this is normaly her spanking spoon for the grand kids, Yikes! ha ha ha, just kidding!)
The boys on the other hand went at it full force!
what'cha doing back there grandma?
It jsut didn't seem like that was enough sugar for these tiny tikes so we took them back to the table and loaded them up with that 4 layer cake from earlier in the day. Good-bye early bed times! ha ha ha.
Where the heck is Poy????? Oh there he is! Enjoying his cake in the other room with his back to the madness, that's my boy!

Time in Fort Mac
We had a great trip to Canada and the timing couldn't have been more perfect! Chelsea and the girls ended up having spring break at the same time as us and so they came and spent the week in Fort Macleod, HURRAY! It was like a second Christmas, kind of.
Chelsie brought some awesome new recipe books with way to many sweet treats to try out as well as a few new meals. It was a wonderful week of food, food, AND MORE FOOD! I think my favorite was the cheese buns and blueberry lemon pound cake, ummmm!!!!!
We played, watched movies, swam, and got a semi-nice day and headed out for a little wienie roast down by the river. It was a little chilly and we were definitely short on dogs (thats why you don't send me to get the groceries!) but it was so fun! I believe this was our boys first river bottom dinner and they really liked it.
Miles also found some mud in the back yard one afternoon and ended up getting a bath in Papa's sink. I seriously love these pictures! 
This is my very favorite, I just love the lighting and it seems like a old picture that you might find of youself as a kid.
I also love these pictures of AJ. He LOVES collecting rocks, he has ever since he was able to walk. He use to fill his pockets with rocks while we walked around the neighbourhood and then add them to his rock pile as soon as we got home. Thr reason I love this so much is because he is not the only one in the family with this particular habit, Grandma Poytress also pickes up rock where ever she gose. The river bottom, waterton, hawiia, new zeland, BC, saint George, you name any place she's been and I'll bet she's got a rock form there.
Oh yeah one more thing. Miles was making me a little nervous on the top bunk with out a big rail but he kept getting out of the bottom so......we fenced him in! ha ha ha, are we bad parents??? It was for his own safty!
