Fathers and Sons

This camp out happened back in May and sadly Jared didn't take any pictures! This is the only picture I have and Max took it while they were dropping off a tent at a friends house. 

They had a lot of fun but of course didn't give many details...I figure it's a boy thing. The only thing I got out of them was that they had a raw egg fight! EWWWWWWW! When there is no running water, being covered in egg doesn't sound like much fun! 

Gwen and I went to dinner at Zin Burger with my friend Candice and her baby, Lauren. Then we went to her house and watched Country Strong (Loved it!!!). It was the perfect night for us!

I have an announcement to make...

This...

...is finally out of this...

....so now instead of this...

...we have THIS, YAY!!!!

After 2 months and at least $50 in bribes denied, I finally found what would get him to let me pull his tooth...

....a big bag of water balloons!!!! MY GOODNESS!!!

Happy 33

Happy Birthday Jared. My most private thoughts were saved for that love letter you found in your pocket ; )

RIP

RIP Nothing, Skelly, Turkey, Christmas, Squeakers, Marv, Harry. 

I guess when you are a goldfish that lives in the Burr house for 1 1/2 years you get your name changed a LOT! Max misses his fish, that's the only reason I am sad he is gone. By the way, the only reason his name was Nothing first was because he knew his dad would wear out any name he chose. And he did.

Wedding weekend

This is going to be one long post because I don't have the energy to do a bunch of little one's : )

Forgive me family for misspelling names please.

The festivities stared Thursday night with a dinner of delicious baked ziti, homemade bread, yummy salad, my Dad's special citrus punch, and a variety of tasty cupcakes. YUM! Here are a few of the guests that were there (sorry, most of the pics are from our side of the family).

Want a bite?

Then we move on to Friday. The wedding was at 11ish. Rachel and Tanner were so nice to watch the kids while we were in the Temple.

Waiting for the lovers to come out.

Woo hoo!!!

The reception was at 6:30 but pictures started at 5. We don't have the professional one's back yet but Shauna always has her trusty camera on hand.

Here are the brothers.

The sisters.

All 15 cousins.

The boy cousins (Thank you Shauna for making all the ties!!!)

The girls. They were kinda getting sick of pictures at this point.

This is what was going on behind the scenes.

My Dad and Rachel were great to keep the kids entertained.

Don't all sisters do this?

Gwen playing with Rachel's hair....shocker!

We all wanted to jump in.

Justin likes playing with blossoms.

Max is thinking about ways to pull his tooth, I just know it.

 By the end of pictures I was so exhausted that I only stayed for 30min. of the reception. Keeping 15 kids from disappearing or jumping in the water is hard work.

And they're off!!!

Yay for Jason and Candace, Erin is probably glad to not be the only sister-in-law!

Easter Sunday

For Easter, we went to the Wood's house for lunch and a hunt. The food was AMAZING! Candace made baked french toast and omelets. For the hunt, Candace got each kid a different color ball to keep in their basket. The color of the ball determined the color of eggs you were hunting for. That way everyone got any equal amount of eggs. So smart!

 Yep, that tooth is still there.

Trent found the Golden Egg, which had money in it!

Happy Easter!
