As promised, let the Picture OVERLOAD Begin!

I wasn't kidding about the millions of pictures, so brace yourselves! (And you might want to start from the bottom. I posted them in chronological order! lol!) Hey, at least I finally have pictures! :)I heart my house!

First Movie Night & First Week at Church

We used to do Friday night movie nights before we sold our house, so to keep with tradition, we had our first! The movie choice was Nemo, and there was two bags of popcorn devoured! :)
Oh, how I love these boys! They looked so handsome for our first week of church, and it also happened to be Mother's Day! It was just the three of us, but they did pretty good! Both of them went to their classes, no tears! I was really impressed!

Swimming, Bikes & Otter Pops

They LOVE the pool!I love that it wears them out! lol!
It took him a couple of days to get used to the pool. But that was it, now he is fearless! (I would apologize for my whiteness, but Harrison is actually whiter than me! lol! Poor kid!)
Jackson jumps in, goes under and paddles around for hours with his noodle! He is a fish! We are going to get him in swimming lessons next week! He is SO excited!
We now have a "cool" driveway with a slope, it has been the site of a few crashes already! And can I just say we are LOVING our little dead end street! You can kind of see it, but there is NO ONE around EVER! It's awesome!
Cooling off in the shade! These are their favorite treat, and I am SO ok with that! :)

Picture Vomit...Randomness

There has been a lot of playing, especially with Dad! Who was VERY missed! It has been SO much fun watching them play together and love having him back!The trampoline is the only thing in the backyard except dirt! So needless to say, I am SO glad we have it!
Keeping busy!
That would be Harrison finishing Jackson's bowl of mac'n cheese! ...Some things will never change! lol!

WARNING: This post may make you CRY!

So, one of the first things Patrick did after we got here was give the boys haircuts! I will be the first to admit that it needed to be done. But Patrick and I disagree about what a "haircut" is! I trim and style, ...he buzzes!!!! Yes, he really did it. He murdered Harrison's famous curls! It was all I could do not to cry! He thought it was so funny because Harrison wouldn't stop rubbing his head!

The good news is they are slowly growing back. But I am still going to shave one of Patrick's eyebrows in his sleep! Evil! It's evil, I tell you! See for your self!
Before

After
Jackson got the skin head look too! (Notice Patrick in the background praising his work! Uggg!)

Welcome to AZ!

We had a lot of help getting all of us and all of our stuff down here! My dad drove his truck and pulled his trailer full of our stuff while Kenny and I drove the Durango pulling the 4 wheeler and hauling the kids! It was an adventure! We had to stop for throw-up a couple of times and the wind was our enemy the ENTIRE way! We stopped to sleep in a roach motel in Page, that was awesome! lol! But we made it, with no major problems or anything! Thank heavens!
My mom flew down and met us here on Friday (she drove back with my dad), so we had a full house to help unload and unpack! Thanks again you guys for ALL of the help! It was quite the weekend! The boys, swimming in my tub! lol!
Jackson, claiming HIS new house! Check out that hair!

April Pics...in Utah

So part of the picture vomit includes pictures I didn't get to blog before we left. lol! I wasn't kidding about how many there were!
