Baseball Birthday Extravaganza!




The boys loved playing noodle vs waffle ball Baseball!

Baseball Cake Anyone?





Pinata Time!






The Boys lined up for a race around the bases!








Robby chose a baseball theme for his 8th Birthday Party. Mom was a little nervous for a party with 12 eight year old boys but the rain stayed away and all turned out great with of course a bit of chaos. We played a couple different games like timing the boys around the bases, a pitching competition, a sunflower seed spitting contest and of course a pinata, which I think was the boys favorite. However coming in a close second was the baseball game using a swim noodle as the bat. Happy Birthday Robby - I love you!

Elli and her preschool girlfriends!


Elli and Miss Amy

Elli graduated from Miss Amy's Preschool on May 18, 2010...she had so much fun singing all of the songs they had learned throughout the year. Mom and Dad were so proud of her awesome singing, we had absolutely no trouble hearing each and every word to every song. Elli is definately "our little performer".
Congratulations Elli! Now off to Kindergarten... I can't believe it!

Elli's Fieldtrip to Layton Park









Elli's last field trip this year for preschool was a trip to Layton Park to play and feed the ducks. The kids always choose the merry go round as the all time favorite thing to play on no matter how many times we go to this park...and I think there is probably a reason they don't put merry-go-rounds on new playgrounds...someone always ends up crying! Madi and Robby got to come to since they were off track. Elli went to Miss Amy's Preschool this year with our neighbor Ella and they loved it! The kids always love to feed bread to the ducks and I almost feel sorry for the poor ducks and the huge chunks of bread being chucked at their heads!

We had a great time at the Idaho State Championships for clogging in April...Madi's team won Overall Champion for both of their dances and Madi did awesome! We got to stay with our awesome Poky friends and it was so fun to watch the girls dance on Friday and then hang out all day on Saturday and relax and catch up! Thanks to Steph and Lowell for the great hospitality! It is always fun and a little sad to see the old friends and neighborhood...we miss our Poky!

Easter 2010








This year we celebrated Easter at the cabin with Grandma and Grandpa Gallacher and the cousins. How cool is an Easter Bunny that tracked us down even at the cabin...we each got a new Webkinz to add to our collection and a new kite and bubbles. Grandma and Grandpa sent all the kids on an Easter egg hunt and spoiled them rotten with candy and goodies. We enjoyed a great weekend of playing and listening to conference. Oh and did I mention it SNOWED... a lot!
