April

We love starting April with two birthdays!  Adam turned 8 this year which is always special.  Our little LEGO boy was happy to get...more legos for his birthday along with his very own scriptures and case.  He is very bright, creative, resilient, and enjoys being a leader.  We waited a few extra weeks for Grandma and Grandpa Smyth to join us for Adam's baptism.  It was a wonderful service-Porter and Andrew gave the talks and Daddy baptized and confirmed him with Grandpa and Papa standing at witnesses.

Then a few days later Leo turned 6!  Not sure where this California toe head came from but we sure love his constant smile, cooperative personality, silly humor, and generous nature.  He loves wear a 3 piece suit to church every week despite the temperature.  His best friend is Jax Boulter.  And he cheers everyone up with the smiley faces he draws.



Lava rock slime-luckily it didn't melt anything, ha!

Posing on a boulder on the way home from soccer, unavoidable!

Some really fun (and happily played together!?!) moments on the tires at Race Track Park.

Not sure who these 2 are but they had guns so I didn't ask too many questions!

A cool-lot dress embroidered with her initials from a former teacher-had to be documented.  My girl who hates dressing up humbly wore it to an awards banquet where the principal honored her for being a student of integrity.

Cold boys!

The little kids and I headed to Westmorland for some shark teeth hunting the Saturday that the big boys were gone all day to the Philadelphia temple...

...but we hurried back for Adam's first and last Pinewood Derby.
