Grandma came

In April Grandma Johnson came to visit.

We went to the Olympic Training Center. It is actually a very inspiring place. We were able to watch some of the athletes work out.

 ...I think they need a little more training...

There was the USA bobsled from the Salt Lake Games that was on display for us to see, and for the boys to get in.




We went to a dinosaur museum… Benji was in heaven. There was a little tour going on that we joined in and Benji pretty much took over and was telling everyone about each of the dinosaurs.



And then we went to the zoo. We love going to the zoo. And I think we only lost Benji once. He climbed into the elevator, to go up to another section of the park , before anyone else could get in and by the time we were able to get up there he was gone. We found him looking at the bears. The zoo is always one of our favorite places to go.


 they do love each other...

This is Colorado Springs. 

We love to have people come and visit us! And we love that Gandma Johnson is up for anything... Even a mile and a half walk that is mostly up hill.... I've never been to a zoo on a hill... I guess I can cross that one off my list.

Tommy is a decade!!

During all the commotion of living, and blogging elsewhere, chasing Swim and teaching Benji to read… Tommy turned 10! He has been here a whole decade!

This boy is such a good kid! He is responsible and is so great with his younger siblings… especially Charlotte. {and she loves him}

He reads like crazy and loves books. Any books… all books!! We spend a lot of time at the library to keep books in his hands. We have to have a rule that he has to read two books before he can read one again because he will read and reread the same book over and over again to be brought back into the world he just left.

Right now he is wanting to go to Oxford or BYU for college, and would like to study Ornithology or Computer Programming. He is really smart and can do it if he wants too… I know that.

Tommy is a one-friend type of kid. He likes all people and is nice to everyone, but he likes to have one good friend and play with him.

For his birthday he had a couple friends. They played x-box, ate pizza and ran crazy… pretty much every little boys dream.


I’m so happy, and very lucky to be blessed with this amazing boy.

Eggs for all

The boys are big now… but they still like dyeing eggs. I love that they still love to do this. Of course we had to do it while Swim was sleeping but it was still fun watching them pick their colors and hold their eggs in the water.


I’ll keep them little for a little while longer…

one quick click will help me get into the top 25!!
