Lots has happened in the last week. Two of my brother in laws graduated with their Masters from BYU so family was in town to celebrate. We had fun going to the the zoo with grandpa, aunts,uncles and cousins. It was a little cold out but the kids had a great time. Although I am not so sure Alex did. He wasn't sure what he wanted why we were there but Aunt Cheri set him on top of the stroller and he was content eating Swedish goldfish and raisins.
My sister Jenny also graduated from College so the boys and I headed down to California to be there for that. Even after waking up in the hotel room at 4 am we had a good time hanging out with Grammie and Poppa. The boys love to ride the bikes outside and play with the puppies.
And of course on Monday, Andrew celebrated his 8th birthday. He was up at 6:30 bouncing on my bed and singing Happy Birthday to himself!! This from the boy who can never get up. He got to go get donuts with dad for breakfast and then went to see Ironman with dad in the afternoon. We topped off his day with a party for him. Family and neighbors joined in on the fun. He said he had a great day even though he was not in charge of what we got to do and when during his party. he thought that he should be since he was the "birthday king" as he told me. The joys of being 8. He gets baptized on May 31st and we are looking forward to that day.
Just another busy week here but we love it and are enjoying the warm weather we have had for 2 whole days. We will take what we can get right?
