Nicks Achievement

We have been working on getting Nick potty trained the last few weeks. While he is still having plenty of accidents, we have little goals that we like to reward him with as he accomplishes them. Today he made one of his bigger goals and got rewarded with lunch at Chuck E Cheese. Way to go Nick!

Preschool Party!

This year I joined a preschool co-op for Bailey. There were 6 kids in the group, and each week a different mom taught so we only had to teach about 6 times. I was in charge of the end of the year party, so I decided to throw a "Lets start summer" party instead with a treasure hunt, balloon games and pinata. We ended with a small ceremony with the kids singing a few songs and each recieving an award for something they learned during the year. The kids had a blast and I'm glad that the pre-school year has come to an end.

Quick trip and a new job

We decided last week that we would take a quick trip to see Trents parents in Orem, Utah, before he started a new job this Monday. The kids were awesome the whole way down, but the way back was a little rockier with both kids tired, worn out and a bit cranky.

Nick and Bailey loved going in Grandpa Campbells backyard and trying to get the chickens! They succeeded a few times.









We also got to go to Thanksgiving Point and let the kids go on a pony ride, feed the animals and take a wagon tour.

The next day we took a picnic up to Bridal Veil Falls and enjoyed the perfect weather that evening.

It was so nice to get a small trip in since it will probably be our only one this summer. On Monday, Trent started a new job as a Manufacturing Engineer. It is a little different from his Mechanical Engineering job that he had but thinks that this is a great company with lots of areas for growth within.

Bailey, Nick and their new cousin Sunny

This is Matt and Brandy's newest addition to their family. Cute little baby Sunny.

Bailey and Nick couldn't get enough time holding her.






Sunny wasn't as thrilled with Nick holding her as much as he was =)

I'm a soccer mom!

Today was Bailey's second soccer game. We signed her up through the Parks and rec to play soccer with the 3-5 year olds. On Saturday mornings, they practice 30 minutes, then play against another team for 30 minutes. The little kids are so cute running around not sure which way to kick the ball or exactly what to do. Bailey would stand with her hands in her pockets just looking around until we would tell her to run after the ball.


Bailey and Nick waiting for everyone to arrive

Bailey running after the ball. She scored a goal this game and one last game too!

Team meeting

The Green Machines

After the game, Bailey had a princess birthday party to attend that she has been looking forward to all week!

A wonderful Easter weekend

We had wonderful weather today in the Treasure Valley. It was nice and sunny and warm. We had a great Easter weekend filled with Egg hunts, A ward Breakfast, egg dying, a perfect ham dinner and of course church filled with lessons on the Savior.

A few pictures from the eventful weekend


Bailey, Nick and their friend Lexi at our early morning ward breakfast and egg hunt.

Bailey woke up first and is waiting by her basket





Family Easter egg hunt in the back yard. The kids enjoyed this one the best because the eggs were actually hidden and they loved finding them!





Even Bentley was enjoying himself in the nice warm sun! Do you see the egg behind him?



Here are their Easter pictures ( I wish I had remembered to take some before church this morning, oh well....)

YMCA vegetable garden

This month I was in charge of the preschool field trip. I decided to ask the YMCA if we could come and learn something about nutrition and being healthy. They taught the kids about eating healthy and then let them help plant seeds in the YMCA garden. The vegetables from the garden will be used to help feed local families who are in need.

Nick loves playing in the dirt and was happy to help!
