The Final Final!

We are so done with finals! Tyson took his last one at 5 and I took mine at 7. We are so glad to be done! And I think we did alright. This morning I went to the store early, before the boys were up, and got some donuts for breakfast. Then I saw some of those animal crackers that come in a little box with a handle and I thought that would be a great treat to keep Easton occupied while we crammed all day. So at about 4:00 I told him I had a special treat for him and got him all set up on the couch with his blanket and a primary songs DVD and gave him his treat. I showed him all the animals first and got a gorilla for myself to eat. He started beating his chest and making Tarzan sounds for my gorilla. Then when I took a bite he was really confused. He would not eat the animals!!! He took his bear and walked it around the furniture all over the house for an hour. Finally I was just laughing at him because he was making his bear walk up the walls, on the door, in the dishwasher... I said "Easton, you're supposed to eat those!" So he went around making his bear "eat" the furniture making chewing sounds. He cracks me up.

PS. Thanks everyone for being willing to model! We're going to look at the calendar for the next few weeks and just start calling! It'll be fun!

Pictures!

Just a quick note ... Tyson and I really want to practice taking pictures. If anyone would like to be a model (who doesn't want to be a model?) just leave a comment or click on the photo blog and comment there!

What we've been up to...

We're so excited for finals to be over next week! By Wednesday we will be all done! (And then I will start all over again the next Monday-which I'm not thrilled about.) We have had a few fun times lately when we haven't been studying. Tyson borrowed Danny's hair cutting kit a little bit after Easter and gave Easton quite the trim.

It was one of those times where I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw this.

The light was really bad in the bathroom and I still can't figure out all the details of this camera. Anyway it turned out pretty cute.

Then we celebrated Danny's birthday. Kelsey and I spent a couple hours designing and making basketball cupcakes. Easton helped frost them.

We learned not to used "whipped" frosting to do designs. They don't hold very well!

It was a surprise party for Danny. (sorry for posting this Kate, you have an evil face on:)

He was surprised.

We got him 4 gallons of ice cream. He's already finished one and a half.

Easton got a turn to blow out the candles. He blows very carefully.

Tyson has been able to go hiking a couple times to get his mind off of school and work. He brought Hayden along for this one.

On Monday we went out to Sizzler with Tyson's family for our brother-in-law Thomas's birthday. I got some birthday money from Tyson's parents that night too for my birthday that's coming up! I'm excited to use it for my upcoming and much needed hair appointment! (It's been over 6 months!) While we were out to dinner we got a phone call and were asked to speak in sacrament this sunday. So that's fantastic! I hate speaking, but I'll live.

That's what we've been up to for now!
