The Evanson Family

Thursday, April 16, 2009

I'm a few days late posting and I have yet to get pictures in their nice Easter clothes . . . not much energy these days (5 weeks to go!) I have also been horrible these last few months at checking blogs! I will try and get to everyone's updates this week. Hope everyone had a Happy Easter!

The boys anxiously waited for dad to come home from the airport after dropping off Uncle Joe! They love their new Wii game Mario Cart from the Easter Bunny! And they also loved getting Bolt from Grandma and Grandpa Evanson (this has been their new favorite movie)!

Masters Week!

So I asked Joe if his dream was to play in the Masters . . . and he said, "I WILL BE IN THE MASTERS SOMEDAY! I am going to hold him to that! Too bad we still won't be here in Augusta 15 minutes away! I had no idea how big this golf tournament was. Our realtor warned us to get out of town or not to leave our house!!

Every year spring break is the same as Master's week. It is next to impossible to get tickets to it. Rich happened to be given 2 tickets from a doctor he was working with on an out-rotation. He was so excited to invite Joe to come out for it. It was fun having Joe in town for a few days. Rich took him to the Masters and then taught him how to shoot his shot gun!! As for me, I pretty much did nothing over spring break but watch the kids and go through boy clothes to get ready for the baby! fun fun

Soccer!

Seeing our Med School Friends!!

It was a quick visit but really fun to see the Codd Family. We met for lunch since they were driving back to Ohio from Disney World. Our kids had a blast seeing each other again. I can't believe it has been 9 months since we finished medical school. How times fly!

The 2 pregnant mamas! I seem to be showing way more even though I am only due a couple weeks before. I am quite jealous that Beckie is having a girl!!

Oh Parker!!

Here is Parker trying to give himself a thumbs up for potty training. He did amazing with pee and is even dry every night. We are still working on number 2 though! He likes to hold it in for 3-4 days at a time. It will be nice to have no kids in diapers for a couple of months before the baby comes! No diapers for my first time in 6 years!!

I was having a wonderful conversation on the phone with my sister in law, Lacey. Parker was in bed and the the boys were playing the Wii. I had just found out that she was having her 3rd boy!! I guess we will both have to wait for a girl. Then I heard Parker upstairs and I told her that I needed to get off the phone. I guess he was having some fun with the eucerin cream when he was supposed to be in bed!

Another Florida Trip!!

Well, I guess it takes me a good month to post a vacation with how picture crazy I am. This time, we went with some of my family back in January the week of Jay's birthday. We hit Disney for 2 days and Universal for 3. We were sad that Rich couldn't go, but it was fun spending time with my mom, sisters, and cousins!! Thanks Becky Kimball for teaching me how to make my pictures big!!

The Animal Kingdom

My attempt to get a picture with all my boys. It is normally quite the challenge!

The firework show at Magic Kingdom!

Our fun at Universal Studios . . .

Me & Jay . . . Jay loved every ride possible . . . the scary ones and the wet rides!

Jay, Karli & Jack Wheatley

After the Parks . . .

The pictures say it all. We had a blast!

Jay's 6th Birthday

AHOY PIRATES!

We went all out for Jay's invitations. Rich burned the edges and we delivered them in a bottle. All the kids loved them!

Caden (Jay's cousin) came in town to visit for the weekend from Utah! It was fun having my sister Holly in town too. 2 days after the party we headed to Florida with my family. Hopefully I will get to that post soon!

Jay's party was a hit!! He had over 20 kids there. We had pizza & played some fun pirate games. The weather ended up being perfect to do everything outside! The treasure hunt at the end was the kids' favorite.
