Before we headed home we had to have Aunt Janna clean up the boys.
Nathan was the first. He needed his hair cut the most.
He kept giggling and trying to shrug because he thought the clippers tickled.
I love his little smile.
He held still really well on his own. This picture shows his black eye best.
Daniel was the next in line to get his hair cut.
He has a lot of hair.
Look how handsome.
Bradley was last but not least to get his hair cut.
Bradley didn't like Aunt Beth taking his picture and stuck his tong out just as Aunt Janna spread him with water.
Nathan got his feelings hurt by someone. It was obviously pretty serious. :0)
Poor Andrew didn't feel well this day. He perked back up by the next day.
Abby did some more riding after school.
Aunt Bethany was giving Abby some pointers on how to handle Little Joe.
"Mom my turn!"
Abby and Little Joe taking the second turn.
This is the turn he has the hardest time with.

What a nice cousin.
Nathan was ready for Abby to get off. He was sad when he had to get off so Eliza could get on.
Ammon and Sarah Jane playing with the chalk.
They are great artists!
Nathan decided we needed a king of the chalk drawings.
He nominated Ammon to be the winner!
Abby kept practicing while the other kids played.
Nathan kept a close watch on her.
Daniel giving Abby a thumbs up.
Eliza and Caden
Caden was so sweet to Eliza.
While the kids were out front I hid some eggs in the backyard for an Easter Egg hunt.
Sarah Jane caught on to the egg hunt pretty fast.
Nathan knew just what to do this time!
He did get a little distracted though. :0)
Andrew slipped off his "sick couch" long enough to join us for the hunt.
Caden
Eliza
Daniel in action.
All the kids in the Easter Egg Hunt.
I love all the different facial expressions when you get a group picture with a lot of little kids.
Ammon and Abby with Sarah Jane doing a photo bomb.
It started raining after the Easter Egg Hunt, so we headed inside.
Nathan loved climbing into the window. He does this at home too.
Sarah Jane was wondering what was so exciting.
Daniel, Caden and Bradley enjoyed playing the Wii.
I think the Wii was one of Daniel's favorite things to do.
Poor Ammon got plum tuckered out!
He fell asleep sitting in his chair.
Going...
Going...
Gone!
Nathan was a little bit concerned that Ammon was sleeping at the counter, so he kept a close eye on him.
Sarah Jane in all her cuteness.

We had to head home, but thought we would enjoy our cousins for a little bit first.
Aunt Janna made sure we got our egg coloring in.
Taylor helping Eliza.
We had to do some games while the eggs were coloring. This helped distract some of the smallish people.
Sarah Jane paid close attention to the instructions.
Back to coloring eggs.
Eliza was excited about coloring her eggs. They are looking pretty good.
Daniel with his eggs.
Bradley's eggs.
Nathan did a few eggs too.
He required very close supervision!
Before we hit the road we had to try out the Smith's four wheelers.
Andrew got the littlest one out.
Aunt Janna and Ammon rode the middle sized one and throttled it down so no one could go too fast.
Eliza rode for a little on her own.
Then the battery died, so we had to take turns on the medium sized four wheeler.
Andrew gave Bradley a ride and showed him what to do.
Bradley claims Andrew is a little crazy!
Bradley giving it a go.
Nathan had a hard time being patient.
Soon it was Nathan's turn.
Andrew tried not to be so wild when it was Nathan's turn.
Nathan didn't want to get off.
Taylor gave Daniel a ride and showed him how to handle the four wheeler.
Daniel getting ready to take off.
Apparently Taylor is a more careful driver.
Daniel with his game face on.
Taylor give Nathan another ride.
He thought it was great when Daniel chased them.

We had so much fun and the time went by too fast. Thanks so much for letting us come crash at your house and helping us celebrate Daniel's birthday again!
