We moved our tortoise outside for the Spring, he likes his new habitat. But sometimes he still tries to climb out of it, and it's really funny. Tank the tortoise has been a pretty good, easy pet. 

In primary we've been doing the B of M Challenge. The kids have a chart to fill in and then we're doing a fun reward for all the kids too. It's been a fun way for the kids to read their scriptures! 

Lizzie does a lot of drawing and writing for everyone in the family. This particular page was for Taylor. I love how it shows them holding hands. She is really doing great with reading and writing. 

We had the Pinewood Derby last week and all the cub scouts were so excited! Isaac and Danny worked hard on his car and designed it just the way they wanted it. 



Isaac took first place in his den, and also 1st place overall! Way to go Isaac ( and Danny ) 

He was very excited and so pleased that his car did well in the competition. This race is a boys dream! 


Talyor and his friends at young men.  He has a good group  of guys and leaders. 

Lizzie and I babysit a little baby, Neve on Friday. She was 3 months old and we had SO much fun with her. Lizzie was so helpful feeding her, helping with her and playing with this adorable little baby. 

The girls doing dress-ups and playing with the foam blocks! 

Emily is really improving at Volleyball. She's getting good at serving and returning the ball. 

Now that it's Spring, the kids have been having lots of lemonade stands. They have fun spending time on the corner trying to sell their drinks, cookies and popsicles.  I think they made $11. 

Sunday night we celebrated Grandpa Shields Birthday. Also Spencer and Milly too. We had a great dinner and yummy cake etc... 


We had a fun breakfast with friends to celebrate one of my friends birthdays! It was a fun morning and fun to socialize with all these lovely ladies.
