APRIL 2011
I am finally getting around to catching up on my blog! It has been so busy these last few months but I wanted to keep track of ALL of the FUN things we did in April! Hope you enjoy seeing all of the pictures!
Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma and Grandpa Murdocks!
It's been so fun since Jeremy and Brieann are back from PA! The boys love having cousins and the Easter Egg Hunt was so fun!!
Travis with Aunt Lacey!
Travis and Tyler hanging out in their PJ's watching cartoons! My mom and dad get a little rocking chair for each grandchild when they turn 1 and they are so cute! The boys love pulling out their chairs to watch a show!
We headed to the famous PHILLIPES in LA for a french-dipped sandwiches. They were delicious! We met John and my mom and dad there. It was LOTS of fun!
We headed to Tri-City Park one Monday night since I did not have to work! We picked up Uncle John, some KFC, and of coarse a soccer ball and baseball! We had a blast!
We made little Easter treats! I have always wanted to try and make the little birds nest with eggs for a fun Easter treat. I remember a primary teacher giving me a little birds nest one year for Easter and I loved it! So, I found the recipe, and the boys and I gave it a try!
My good friends Kristine and Robin had a little Easter Egg Hunt in the park one Friday morning for the kids! It was so fun! We all pitched in for the Easter Eggs and all brought a little treat or snack to share. It was lots of fun and Travis and Tyler had a blast!
We spent Easter weekend with my mom and dad in Palmdale! The night before Easter we dyed our eggs!

Tyler and Grandma!
This year Travis really loved dying the eggs! So fun!

The boys with their baskets on Easter morning....YES, the Easter bunny made it even to Palmdale!

The Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma and Grandpa Clark's house!

Travis really wanted to try soccer this time around so Scott and I signed him up! He played on the City of Brea Blue Cannon Ball team and loved it!

Tyler watching the game and enjoying some Fruit Loops!

Doing the drills!

At the end of the season, all of the kids got a little trophy and Travis thought this was the BEST! It was fun to watch him play each week and he did a GREAT job! We love you Travis!

MARCH 2011
March was also a fun month! Travis couldn't wait for the Leprechauns to come this month. He talked and talked about it for days! We are still doing the little Joyful Parenting class with Travis at the North Orange County Continuing Education. He loves and it and so does Tyler! I absolutely LOVE going to the little class with him, to see his little face excited over something fun they are making or doing and to watch him learn new things. It is so great! I so enjoy being home with them during the day and have been so blessed! Here is alittle of what we did in March!
Scott finished his student teaching in January but this was the little "goodbye" poster the kids made for him. It was really nice! He started a teaching job...teaching math at Valley High School in Santa Ana. While it has been a challenge to say the least, it has been such a blessing for our family. We never imagined he would have gotten a job in the middle of the semester! He is learning something new everyday and really does enjoy teaching. I am so grateful for that!
March 5th--Travis and I went to the movies while dad was home working on school stuff and Tyler was sleeping!
We saw Tangled and he loved it! Travis' real idea of the movies though is getting "a little popcorn and a little soda just in case we get thirsty." He is so cute!
March 17th--The Leprechauns made it!
The boys were thrilled to wake up and find candy filled in their shoes from the Leprechauns (our family tradition since we are Irish!).
Our St. Patrick's Day socks...left by the Leprechauns!
Their little Irish hats! So cute!
We went to Travis' class and they had a little St. Patrick's Day party! Travis is making his little hat for the party!

Travis got to frost his own shamrock cookie and then eat it outside! He loved it!
Tyler's favorite part about going to Travis' class is going outside to shoot hoops. HE LOVES IT....and that is a bit of an understatement!
Travis completed his class and got a little award!
YAY for Travis!

The boys with our friend Ana...ready to go home after a fun party!
Tyler eating his lunch...he has to eat everything by himself now including his applesauce. I think he couldn't get the last couple of bites with his spoon and so he decided to lick it!
We watched "Darby O'Gill and the Little People"...one of our favorite St. Patrick's Day movies!
March 21st--Enjoying our day!
Looking out the window waiting for dad to come home!
Cute little Tyler with his runny nose and everything!
Tyler's favorite place is behind the couch. He loves to look out the window and check out the world!
March 25th--Celebrating Grandpa Murdock's 60th birthday!!

Travis had to wear Grandpa's birthday hat!

The best part was playing all the birthday games. Grandma Murdock planned a few games for the kids to play and they LOVED it!
Tyler playing with the toys at Grandma and Grandpa Murdock's house!

The family enjoying Grandpa's party! Oh! and Jeremy and Brieann moved back from PA. It's been so fun to have them back so close! We've missed them!
March 26th--This is Tyler's favorite thing to do right now! He loves walking around the apartment with a dish towel on his head. He is so silly!
And......when one boy does it, so does the other!
March 28th--We went to the DUCKS game!
Travis was thrilled and wanted to carry his own ticket!
We took Uncle John and Brian with us. It was lots of fun even if we were sitting in the VERY last row in the arena!
