Coaches 8th Birthday

Another boy in this house turns 8. Who ever is speeding up time and making my boys grow up so fast, isn't funny.

Coach asked for a sword themed party this year.

Dad is pretty amazing in granting cake requests. Just check out this cool sword.

Birthday pizza. Yum!

Sword fighting in the front yard. Good times! I sometimes wonder if the neighbors think we are nuts, but who cares when you are having this much fun.

Heavy, heavy hang over thy poor head. What do you wish this person with a bump on the head.

8 things we love about Coach:

1. He is the best cuddler in the house
2. He loves and needs his sleep. He won't share his bed because he needs his beauty rest.
3. He looks the most like a Davis. If I have to have all boys I am glad one can look like me.
4. He loves his brothers and always wants to be in on the action
5. Wrestling dad in the front yard is one of this favorite past times
6. He is very caring. An aide in his classroom told me how sweet he is to a boy named Luke in his class who has physical limitations and is wheel chair bound. Coach is the first kid in the class to jump up and help Luke if he asks or not.
7. He is excited to be baptized
8. He is a mama's boy and I love him very much!

Spring Break Cousin Style

My kids love having visitors, especially when the Sticht family comes to town. Thanks for coming and staying with us. We love our cousins!

Kids being kids

Group shot

We took a morning trip to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Museum and then when it warmed up a little we headed to the beach. When I say a little I mean it. It was a cold day, but that didn't stop the kids from having fun and getting in the water. 

Spring Breaking it with Grandpa Brad and Grandma Maralee

Grandpa Brad and Grandma Maralee had a time-share in San Diego during spring break so they stopped in and picked us up along the way. They spent their first night with us. The next morning we stuffed them with sweet rolls and we were on our way. We went to the beach our first day together and then to Sea World the next day. It was a fun filled weekend.

TLex loved playing bubbles with the boy in front of us.

As I tried to take a photo of this bear. This big head popped into my view finder.

Lil' B taking photo bombs to a whole new level.

Thanks for the delicious treat Grandma and Grandpa! Better yet thank your for coming out to play with us. We love your visits!

Easter 2015

It was Dad's turn to pick out the Easter clothes this year. We decided since we both have strong opinions on what Easter outfits the boys should wear, that we would take turns picking them out. 

The boys look great!

 I love how my boys love me!

 Easter morning

 Dying our Easter Eggs. Always so much fun!

April Fools 2015

For April Fools dinner we each were given a cookie sheet and a cup with slips of paper that listed various items we would be using/or eating for dinner. We had a four course meal, each course you were allowed to draw three slips of paper out of your cup. Then mom and dad would go to the kitchen and fill the cookie sheets with the different items that were drawn. As you can see Nate got a napkin, carrots, and a fork. Lex got fries, a drink, and a plate. The boys love it when we have this goofy meal. Just making fun memories at the Franci' house.
