Saying goodbye to Josh and Heidi was really hard for all of us I hope that we get to see them again in the future I know it wont be for a couple years because I think they are in china by now for his masters program. But we will always hold them in our hearts as part of our Family.
David loves his Daddy and Daddy loves his David.  I have so many pictures of those two sleeping like this and I thought it would be nice to let the world know that my husband is awesome. I am thinking that this one in particular I had been gone doing something and came home to find this precious moment.






It was probably a little early on in the year for us all to be out and enjoying the sun it was probably in the upper 50's or mid 60's outside but the sun was shining and we had been waiting all winter for the snow to melt and the sidewalks to be ready for bike riding.  to explain the pictures of the unfamiliar faces they belong to Josh and Hiedi. They stayed with us for a little while and it was one of the better experiences of the year. We learned so much from them and our boys grew rather attached to them.  I have since moved all three boys to the room that they stayed in to get ready for the new baby coming this April ( a whole year later) but they still call it "Josh and Heidi's" room every once in a while. Good times!

David's Easter egg Hunt, we hadn't planned one but our neighbors we having one in the yard and we just happened to be outside and they said our boys could join in for the fun. I think they all had a good time. That was really nice of our neighbors to let then look for some eggs too.










We went to church with Kina and her Family and we thought the boys looked pretty handsome in their suit coats and it was just a coincidence that they all wore the same kind of pants.


This was sort of a little family reunion for the McCallum Clan Randall and Caden (I am sorry I am not sure how to spell his name) seemed to get along pretty well, Caden showed Randall Papa's chickens and he has been asking about them ever since.... David got to meet his Uncle Aaron and he took to him pretty good. Over all it was a really good experience for the whole family.




It was the first time I had seen my Big Brother in a  long time this was his coming home party! Isaac had never met Cache in person and we had been married for about 6 1/2 years at this point, Isaac wanted to make a good impression.  He had a good idea to buy a file and put it in the cake I was unsure of how Cache would take the joke but I think it went well.  Cache is doing well and I am so proud of him it is coming up on a year since he came home and I think that is the longest he has been able to be with his family since before he was married.  Very exciting!!! Hopefully we will be able to visit home again to celebrate the year mark but we will see.
