Easter Trip

Yes its Easter, and yes it started off great. The night before Devin had so much candy that when he went to bed he threw-up everthing (It was Awsome). It set the mood for Easter the next day.

Easter morning the kids got up and was excited to see what the Easter Bunny brought. As you can see, a lot of candy (YUM), and Mario Kart for the Wii.

The Easter Bunny put the game in the plant, now why would he do that. Crazy Bunny!
Devin all excited


YUMMY!
Coy checking out his candy basket.

We decided we would take the kids to Lemans Cave in Baker NV. Did we mention its a 3 hr drive, it was awesome. The kids did good. I went to Leman's Cave when I was about Taz's age, so I could remember a little bit of what the cave was like.

This is the cabin that Mr. Leman built to live in.

Devin running up and down the stairs. Getting all of his energy out.

Look at the BUTT on that!!!! Hot Mama

This is a hike we went on before we went on the tour.

The entrance.

Doesn't this look like a Ghost haunts the cave? As you can see, we got pictures.

Inside the cave. The kids loved it.

The family.

Two fine Studs.

The kids love the tour guide lady. She had Taz carry the other flash light. He was to make sure no one was left behind. Taz is very smart, he answered most of the questions that the lady asked about the rocks. ROCK ON Taz.

A little cold. The cave stays a Constant Temp of 50 degrees.

Hiking one of the many staircases.

What a fun family adventure. Next time we will camp there.

Sunday Fun

Today is general conference. Ellie and the boys watched the morning session, but after that it was time to get out. The weather was a little chilly, but nothing the Strong's can't handle. The boys are starting baseball soon, so we went out to practice.

Here is Devin just chillin.

Coy practicing his batting.

Deklyn's turn. They all hit the ball real good.

Nice hit Taz!

Coy and Deklyn waiting for the ball.

Picking up balls.

This is a cave that we went to, that is on the way to Enterprise reservoir. It was a little scary, you couldn't see the end. It comes out the other side of the hill. Its about 50ft long.

Look at the monster behind you guys!

Looking into the cave OOOOOOO Scary!

Coy and Taz being goofy.

No you go first! NO you go!

Alright I will go.

Deklyn last one in.

Taz go, watch for snakes and spiders.

What the! April 2009

Here we are eating and enjoying the nice spring winter storm. GREAT!

Thursday Coy had another Pack meeting. They played games and had refreshments.

As you can see Devin is just happy as can be.

It turned out to be a long day, so I got the camera out and took some pictures.

Taxes!!!

Ellie's brothers and sister came over to do their taxes (Yuck!). Ellie is great at taxes, and has become the family tax accountant. She loves helping out. The cousins wanted ice cream so they got ice cream (YEA!). I took this picture of good times.
