Whooaa

 Terry and I had quite the adventure the other day. It was decided that our barn needed a light, so guess who got put on the job? That's right, I did. We climbed into the bucket of our neighbors telehandler, and up we went! This machine has been "well loved" and every now and then, it would begin to sink back down, and it would have to be raised back up. Well, I didn't know it was going to do that, so in an attempt to help Terry lift this huge light, I was leaning against the barn. When the bucket started to move, I only freaked out a little, but I tend to say "whoa, whoa, whoa" when something unexpected happens, and unexpected that was! Terry wasn't quite prepared for it either, because he quickly grabbed a hold of my shirt (like that was going to save me!) It really wasn't that bad though, and I would definitely do it again! The sad part is, we haven't even turned the light on!

We waved to Oliver, and told Sherri to share him with my mom if anything happened ;)

The Zoo!

Oliver and I had the opportunity to go to the zoo with some friends. Oliver was in a terrible mood on the way over, so I thought we were in for a long day. Much to my surprise however, he did great! We got to see giraffes, penguins, hyenas, a leopard, a lion, and lots more! I think the best part though was getting to feed the goats! It was awesome to have an interactive part at the zoo! Oliver was trying to grab the goats by ears. It's so much fun getting to watch him learn to play with other kids. We had an awesome time and can't wait to go again!

Easter 2013

Oliver had his first Easter! I think he had quite a bit of fun too! We went to Darcia and Levi's to celebrate the Saturday before. We had some good food, a water gun fight, and an Easter egg hunt! We sure did miss out on seeing Anna, Dian, Jenny, and their families. We are so excited for their visit this summer. Here are plenty of pictures to show our day.

The Hunt





 Everyone checking out their goodies







See that rock? It went in his mouth.
 The Egg Race



I brought real eggs, not knowing I should have brought plastic ones full of candy (duh..) I heard a little boy say he threw his in the garbage, but hey, my kid ate his!



Becca's face was covered in chocolate!
 Water Gun Fight



Oliver proceeded to dump the water out of the bucket.


We had a fun Easter and we are so grateful for our Savior and his great sacrifice that we will one day be able to return unto him and be an eternal family.
