One of the teachers that Steve works with lives on several acres of land on the north end of Fort Collins. They have lots of animals there and last month she invited everyone to bring there kids and see all the baby animals. The boys had a blast! They went in the chicken coop and each picked an egg to bring home. They all took turns riding the horse. Andrew hopped on right away, but Caden took a lot of persuasion!
They had a great playhouse the boys played in for quite a while.
Andrew and Dallin got to milk a goat. Caden was too scared!
They loved playing on the tractor.
I wish I had taken a picture with Andrew and the baby goats. He kept wanting to get in the pen with them. It was really cute! :(
Andrew keeps talking about going to the farm and whenever we drive past one he gets really excited. We had a great time and hope it's something she'll do every year!

Catch up
It's been a while! There's been so many things I wanted to write about, but have missed, and now I'm playing catch-up, again. On Feb 28 Dallin turned 5.
He had his first friend party and chose a pirate theme.
In March, Dallin's preschool had a float for the Fort Collin's St Patrick's Day Parade. Dallin loved holding all that candy, and he was actually happy to give it out!
That was the start of the boys' spring break. I decided I missed my family too much, so I quickly packed a few things, gathered up my boys, said goodbye to Steve (his spring break wasn't for another 2 weeks), and drove out to Utah! We had a great time, not doing much of anything! :)
Andrew loved my dad. He learned real quick that Papa always has candy! One morning, I sent the boys upstairs and I went back to bed. When I went upstairs a few hours later, I asked Andrew what he had for breakfast and he said, "Candy!"
We were there on St Patrick's Day and we did a few little things, like turn the milk green, etc. Here is the leprechaun trap we built.
It was a really fun trip and I am so glad we went!
I had a lot of fun with our April Fool's dinner again. I told them because it was April Fool's, we were going to have dessert first, and then dinner. We had a cake first (meatloaf with mashed potatoes).
Then chicken nuggets (candy bars rolled in corn flakes) and french fries (pound cake cut up like fries).
I thought the best part was the straws.
I have too much to catch up on in one post, so that's it for now. Stay tuned, more to come! I leave you with a picture of what Andrew looks like in the morning.
