Chickens

Eric's dream is to have a farm.
And both of our boys love animals.
I am the odd one out.
But we found a compromise that makes everyone happy.
Chickens!
That's right.
Eric gets his farm animal.
The boys get their animal to raise and care for.
I will get fresh eggs in a few months.

We got them as chicks.
The first four we named
Chewbacca,
Queen Amidala,
Mr. President,
and
Geronimo.

They lived in a box in the garage

until they got big enough 

to go out

into the chicken coop

that Eric built for them.

And then the boys in my life 

all decided we needed two more.

So Elvis and Oreo joined the flock.

These boys take good care of their chickens.

Disney World

Eric found out he had a conference for work
in Orlando, FL over our Spring Break.
We couldn't pass up the opportunity
for a trip to Disney World!

Saying hello
to Mickey and his friends
when they rode in on the train
to open the park for the day.

We love Disney!

Family

Because Kyler was baptized at the beginning of the month, we had some of our extended family in town.

What did we do with a house full (two of my sisters, a brother in law, a niece, my mom, and Eric's parents)?
We took turns on the 360 bike and the ripstick.

Played a little basketball and Ladderball.

Made a bowling cake for Kacin
and Eric tried to light the candles with flint and steel.

Saw some sights of Seattle during our very own Amazing Race that I organized

Held our annual Untalent Show.
There were light sabers, guitars, whistling, kissing, impersonations, and toilet paper origami.
It was an amazing show!

We played lots of board games 
and we spent a lot of time in the kitchen cooking, eating, and cleaning.

We hope everyone (including those who couldn't make it this year) can join us next year when Kacin gets baptized!
