Pinewood derby, birthday, easter, fun fun fun!!!!

So we had Joey's pinewood derby last week. He is so creative and asked his dad to help him make his car into a shark. It really turned out amazing. It was pretty awesome to not be just a boring old race car and Joey did a great job helping make it look great.
This is basically starting
Joey giving Dad some tips.
Progress
Starting to take shape
Pretty stinking cool!
Slade is just a cutie. He was quite fascinated with this whole process.
Paul trying really hard not to inhale ANY MORE sawdust!
Time to sand it.
It's a lot of hard work.
Ready for some paint.
Joey is a hoot!

On to the details

We had Nicole and Bethany come up for a visit during Bethany's spring break. It wasn't terribly long but it was fun for us to have visitors and for the cousins to see each other and play. Joy is working on her consonants and really struggles if a word starts with one. So she kept calling Micah, caca. It was kinda funny.
Joy and Nikayla. Anyone know who is happier about this picture being taken?
Joy and Micah in the tub. Anyone would guess they are cousins right? LOL
Precious Nikayla
Joy loves doing this since mom does it. The towel just is quite a bit heavier on her than mama. It's pretty funny.
Now THAT is a lot of HAPPY! I loved this pic!
We had to get at least one pic of us together. Nicole, can I borrow some of that color, you look FABULOUS!

We also now have a teenager in the house. Holy cow Forest, I feel old! He had a pretty good birthday in my opinion. Steak for dinner, requested famous lemon cake from Grandma, which was pretty good, if I do say so myself. Pretty crazy weekend, working on birthday and pinewood derby, but it was fun.

A new wii game.
Now what the heck does he need a thing of bee-bees for?
Oh yeah, that's right, his LONG requested very own bee bee gun.

Slade has decided that he would like to be the family photographer so I included a few pics courtesy of Slade. At least he makes Paul and I look tall :)
Then we had a great General Conference weekend and after two sessions on Saturday we got to go to Aunt Kathryn's for a Easter egg hung for the kids. It was pretty fun.
Cute outfit Joy got from Grandma for Christmas that is almost fitting.
Come one mom, LET'S GO!!!!
Hanging with Aunt Bev before the fun starts.
Daddy helping Joy find the eggs outside. And as there were so many eggs, she sat down and started pulling the "grass" out of her basket. I said, no Joy leave the grass in and she responded "No mom, no grass, more egg" I almost died laughing.

It truly was that exciting for her almost every time she got an egg!
