This is what we love to do! Roasting marshmallows in our backyard. Although is gave us an itch to want to go camping. This is the next best thing if we can't go camping. I love these next few months because Dave loves to cook in the dutch oven. Which lets me off the hook for dinner! So if anyone is up for a warm fire to roast marshmallows.... just bring your roasting sticks!!!
Sunday we Malulani, Dave, and I went to the dedication for the Draper Temple. This was Dave's and Malulani first dedication. I have been to the Denver temple so I knew what to expect.
Girls getaway to Rachel's families cabin at Bear lake. A much needed trip.
It was beautiful weather. The sun was shinning just a little bit windy. We had a picnic at the beach and then collected seashells there were thousands up against the shore line. 
We just had to put our feet in. We couldn't go to Bear lake and not go in the water. Man was it freezing cccoold!!!!
And we rocked out playing guitar hero. Man it was hard. Here are the pros.
And the best part was pedicure and manicures. It was so relaxing. So laid back some did some crafting, reading, a lot of eating, a little bit of sleeping, and some games. We even played good old M.A.S.H. it was hilarious. It was way fun and all was well at home which was the best part. My house was even clean (thanks babe)! All the stress disappeared. If anyone gets the chance to do something like this..... don't let it pass you by. Everyone needs a getaway. Thanks Rachel it was a blast!!!!!!! 
This lad is a wee bit Irish! We made these for preschool.
Aubree four-leaf clover hair do. Not sure if you can tell or not.
Malulani's three-leaf clover. A little easier to see hers.
As soon as the girls got home we played outside with friends! It was a beautiful day!
These lil' lad's beards are not staying on but they are so darling!!!!
For preschool we played shamrock hopscotch. Cute little Megan! 
We had a field trip at the fire station today!!! The kids got a tour of the new fire station and learned a lot about fire safety. Dallin was able to wear one of their hats. Inside of his hat there was a picture of the fire fighter's family which was neat to see.
Hyrum, Tayler, Dallin, Brandon, and Megan.
Dallin was so funny-one of the fire fighters asked, "What do you do if you are on fire?". He almost got it right-he said, "Drop and roll". The kids thought that the whole Darth Vader breathing was cool. Poor guy had stay in the hot suit until we all get our pictures taken.
They even got to ring the bell in the truck!
Here is part of the preschool group sporting the fire fighters hats.
Last night for enrichment we had a "Spiritual Spa". A local group that about a year into performing together came and performed for us. Man it was awesome!!! I can't believe I hesitated on going. I'll tell you what, those three are amazing. I only wish I could sing....let alone sing like them. I came home and told Dave that I had to have their CD. I usually am not like that but they were so good.
Today was a beautiful day and we have the itch of spring. It is definitely in the air at our house. Okay me and the kids, Dave is content on still being winter so he can snowmobile more.
We did a ton of underdogs! But we haven't mastered the pumping of the legs just yet so it got to be hard work after a while.
I love this sweet picture. Dallin loves his little sister and he wanted to take her down the slide every time.
Maile just laughed and laughed. On our swing set we don't have a baby swing so she really hasn't been out on it-we need to get one! You can actually see her two teeth (14 mths old and only 2 teeth)!
They could have stayed there all day!
Dave decided to let Maile go down by herself!
4 lbs beef short ribs (we have used all different kinds of ribs)
