Gabriella's 11th Birthday

"It's not every day your young (girl) turns 11!"-Harry Potter quote

Happy 11th Birthday to Gabriella Grace!

She started the day opening presents before school, including a new bike!

After school we went to Airborn, a trampoline park. I tried to get a picture of everyone jumping at the same time but this was the best we got! Gabrie and Dash are mid air and Livvy and Liam are coming down their jumps.

 

 Gabrie was daring and determined to do this extra challenging course and actually made it pretty far!

 

She wanted a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, which she decorated with sprinkles and she wanted to light her own candles.

 We sure love this girl! She has grown a lot this past year in many ways! Not only is she getting tall but she has matured a lot too. She still loves to read and learn especially about science and history. She loves to create things like artwork, jewelry, and random inventions. She is a great student, getting really good at speaking spanish, and has lots of friends, who she will fiercely stand up for. She likes to climb "her" tree, play soccer, and play the piano.

Easter 2018

Dash's Easter Family Home Evening lesson, he had me write "Jesus died and he will live again."

Such a sweet boy.

Dying Easter Eggs

Livvy arranged the snack for the Easter Bunny and left a note explaining that she had braces and couldn't eat sticky candy. 

 I had to zoom in on the boys Dash because his face is hilarious and Liam is just cute!

March 2018

Kindergarten Orientation! What?! How did we get here! I don't know but we were all excited and ready for it!

 March get together with the Williams side these silly boys playing with Grandma Williams St. Patrick's Day stuff. Dash, Evan, Ben (under the hat) and Liam.

Family Home Evening 

For our treat we decided to go check out the new candy shop that opened close by and the kids all got to pick a treat. Gabrie's was a candy/chocolate rock.

 The boys got Lego candy 

 And Livvy got a mixture.

 "Olivia Lesson" as it is titled, a cute lesson she gave for FHE.

 I am not sure what this was but I'm guessing Dash was playing library?

  Pie Day! 

We celebrated by making and eating pie!

 Poor Gabrie got really sick and ended up in the ER but she was a trooper and handled it all really well, even when they had to give her an IV and she made them let her watch and explain everything to her!

 The boys started and finished their indoor soccer season. It was all of our first experience with indoor and it was entertaining to say the least. Liam was pretty intense but Dash had to usually be reminded he was playing, hahaha! Here is Liam getting a chance to kick the ball.

I had to include both pictures just because the first is so funny!

 

 Eating popsicles at Grandma and Grandpa Williams because why not?!

 Dash found this on the ground at the grocery store and then exclaimed "This changes everything!" Hahaha! He also calls these "dragon eyes" and likes to tape them to his creations and art work. I love this kid.

Livvy's first game of Spring Soccer season.

 Luke and his leadership class put on a Spring Carnival and like everything Luke does it turned out great! These are pictures of the Egg Hunt area.
