What's New

Wow! I really stink at keeping up with this stuff. Those of you who can do this regularly have my respect. Life hasn't slowed down for us, as is apparent with my lack of postings, and it appears that it won't anytime soon. Jason is full-boar into the landscape management stuff and the kids are itching for warmer weather. We have had a few great days recently, which means the kids have been outside soaking it up. In fact, Ellie asked if we could get the sprinkler out so they could play in the water. It wasn't easy to explain that although it is warm, it has to be HOT first. She did eventually forget about it - for now.
Yesterday the weather was beautiful and the kids literally spent the whole day out there. I even enjoyed a picnic with the kids for lunch. Today the weather took a turn, it SNOWED! It's April and there was snow! That's Idaho for you.

Some of the kids fun:
The kids have been playing so hard recently that Isaac just couldn't take it some days. We found him in some pretty funny places asleep.
His Favorite place to play, the couch with the cushions removed.

He didn't quite make it out of the kitchen.


Ellie has been enjoying her dance classes and will be having her recital in May. She just got her costume and is so excited about it. She wants to try it on several times a day.

She is the one in the white skirt second in line.

Liam is just hanging out being calm and serene as usual. He is teething for sure now but those darn teeth haven't made their appearance yet.


Angie got to enjoy a nice little girls weekend with all the sisters in Utah. We went to a women's conference in Delta and got to see our cousins as well. It was a fun time, but definitely way too short. Jason was a trooper and stayed home with the kids for three days!

While in Utah we all got to spend some time with Grandpa Albert Nickel (the grandpa who Liam Albert Tuft is named after).
