New photos

Borrowed a friends digital camera and
had fun out at the farm taking photos of the kids

Mikal had Steven on the rope swing both were laugh so hard
Mikal almost got stuck over the ditch. Steven had a great
time and loved swinging

I have cute kids, they are the BEST!

Spring has sprung


My flowers that have come up this spring

Love the vibrant colors and the beauty of
the shape - love flowers

Easter with Matt's family

We held the Merrill Tradition - the Hunt
Mikal hid the eggs with the dads' help and then

The kids had a great time and found all the eggs that were hid.
Steven missed it he was sleeping, but we had eggs for him to have
when he woke up.

We had a great dinner thanks to Heather(matt's) and Jordyn
enjoyed this hard boiled egg... the whole thing. WOW
We had a very nice Easter and hope all of you did too.

Air Soft War

Sam had a bunch of friends over to have a war
they had 2 teams of 4 and were able to play in the
back yard.... It was really fun and the boys had a great time

They ran out of glasses so Sam decided to wear his swimming goggles

The group of boys ages 7-13, they all had fun

Watch out he's ready to shoot!

David is 40!!!

March birthday for David, Heather and the twins

We celebrated many times, great grama Merrill would be pleased.

Mikal had decorated for David and helped remind
him how old he really was hahaha

Mikal and Uncle Matt made these tomb stones for the yard
but we had a Blizzard so when he woke up they were all over the room...
You know your old when...

Your teeth and you don't sleep together
You sink your teeth into a steak and they stay there
Your back goes out more than you do
the candles cost more then the cake
Mikal did a great job and the Tomb stones were very funny
David didn't want to have any more birthdays but
I think we did okay in helping him celebrate
