Tyson's Stitches

Tyson got his first set of stitches today and he took it like a MAN!!! We where down at my friends house tonight as she was helping me get a schedule ready(for the boys and people who where going to watch them) so I could go back home to AZ to be with Matt and his family. We found out the day before that Matt's sister Jill had passed away peacefully in her sleep. We where in shock for quite some time. We spent all of today getting ready to leave for AZ and finding friends to help watch the boys. Being so far away from home really broke our hearts we just wanted to be there with our family.

So as we where getting ready to leave the boys got out some clubs and golf balls to hit out in her backyard. Trenton took one swing and the ball came up and hit Tyson right in the mouth. At first I was just like your fine shake it off then the blood started to come. I picked Tyson up and ran home with him. I knew just by looking at him he was going to need stitches. His poor lip was cut all the way through. I stayed as calm as I could and ran to get our next door neighbors (I don't know what I would do with out you guys). We wanted to get a second opinion before we went and spent 3+ hours in the ER. Plus Matt was getting up the next morning at 4 to leave to go home. We where sooooo busy. That's when they suggested that we call up Bro. Hunter. He is an ER Doc. in our ward, and see if we could bring Tyson to him to look at, before we went to the ER just to make sure he need to get stitches. He instead come on over to our house to look. He got here pretty fast and right away said he needed them. With one quick call to the ER where he works (to make sure they had a room available). Matt and Tyson where in his car on the way to the ER. Matt said right when they got there. They went right into a room and Bro. Hunter stitched him right up. Tyson did not even cry and when he got home was so proud to show them off. He got two on the outside and two on the inside. They where home within an hour. I am so thankful to him for helping us out in our time of need.

Easter

Well this is the only pic I got of our Easter.....sad yes, but that is ok!! I did get lots of video instead and I think that's just as great if not better. Here are the boys getting ready to eat breakfast. We had such a great day the Easter bunny came and left the boys MarioKart for the wii and lots of candy. He even hid lots of eggs inside and out.

Easter Activity's

With it being the first Sat. of the month we first went to Home Depot

to make the wood project for this month. I was flying solo all day but still

wanted to make the kids Easter weekend fun.

They made butterfly houses!

Our next stop was Barnes and Noble's we listened to an Easter

story and than they had a hunt for all the kids. They hid

two coins one gold and one sliver. The gold coin won the

Easter Basket and the sliver won the book.

Well Carter found the egg with the gold coin in it.

Here he is with his mouth full of candy and the basket and saying cheese!!

(His new thing is to close his eyes while saying cheese to smile.....so cute!)




Last stop of the morning was the Zoo!

Burger King and our zoo here put on an some Easter activity's.
For all the kids. It was really busy and Hot. But the kids
had fun finding an Egg and turning it in for a prize.

Resurrection rolls/Egg dying

After a long day and dinner we learned about Christ and what the true meaning of Easter is. I found a recipe online for tomb or resurrection rolls. It a marshmallow (Christ) dip in some melted butter, with sugar and cin. all over it (our sins) placed in a crescent roll (tomb), then you roll it up and make sure there are no seams. Bake in the oven and.......

when we ate them the marshmallow(Christ) was gone.

It was a fun activity.

Then we moved on to Egg dying......

I got just a few pictures when I hear my husband yelling from the
basement to come quick. When I got down their our water
heater had very hot water coming out of one of the pipes.
My poor husband was trying to bail the water into the sink
but of course tons got all over our basement floor. I was
really no help and had no clue what to do. So I ran next door
and got Dave to come help Matt. After just a few min it stop we
have no clue why this happened or why it stop. We are just glad that it did.
It has not happened sense. But it made for a very short
egg dying time with all the commotion.

Easter Package!!!!!!!!!!

I would have to say that today has been a pretty exciting day around here.

A baby being born, Egg Hunt, and a Easter package all in the same day!!

It was like Christmas morning. My boys have been waiting for this package for a few days now. It came all the way from Grammie J's and Grandpa's house and they could have not been more excited. Thank you mom and dad for all the great toys, candy, pj's and lots of other things. The boys also this week got cards from Grandma and Grandpa Nunes and a box with toys in it from Aunt Jill. Now I just hope the Easter Bunny can deliver, Hunter today said he can't wait to see all the things the Easter Bunny will leave!!!!
