Derrikand the month of April





I guess I would have to say that the month of April is for Derrik! At the begining of the month Derrik ran in his school track meet. He came in first place for the 200 and first in the long jump! Go Derrik! So now he is on to region in May. Then he had his Science Fair. Derrik decided to do "Onions- the Vegetable worth crying about". He did a great job and as you can see from the pcitures googles do help you not to cry when you cut an onion! Then on Thursday was Derrik's big 10 Birthday! Grandma April made him a ripstick birthday cake which was the best ever! It has been a great month and we are so glad that Derrik is apart of our family! Love Ya lots Derr!!!!

Fountain Fun






I know it has been awhile since I last posted. So here are some pictures from a couple of weeks ago. We were supposed to go up to Ogden for a family party, but the flights looked bad and it was supposed to be 31 degrees outside with a windchill of 16 degrees so we decided to stay home. Instead we went on a hike to Chuckawhalla and then downtown to the new water fountains. It was about 70 degrees outside. The hike was fun and Derrik was amazing. He gave Marlee a piggy back ride for the last half of the hike. (I think Marlee almost weighs as much as Derrik) Then we needed to cool off so we went downtown to the fountains. The kids loved the fountains and getting wet. Derrik and Daniel got the wettest! Maycie wasn't sure about the water at first but then we couldn't get her to leave. It was a great day!
