Easter

Before we left for home I decided to make some cake balls(pops) of bunnies, eggs, and chicks for Easter.  It was a lot of fun...took a LONG time but the final project was great!


This weekend we went to my home back to the big town (I can't even say city because it is pretty small, but love it).  It was a great weekend, lots going on and everyone busy but was so nice to be back.  We got home Friday about 1:00 and hung out boys took naps and then we went to the farm and colored eggs.  The boys didn't color to many but we were able to snap a few pictures. After coloring eggs we went outside to see the animals, it was cold but the boys didn't care they loved it. 









Thanks for waiting all day for us girls!

We love our big helpers!  Gracie and Ellie!



So glad they love our boys as much as they do even though they don't get to see them as much as we all would like


Landon was not a fan of the horse


Tristan was not so sure of the horse either




Beautiful blues  Love him!  He loves the cake pops too!

Not bad!


yep that big candy bar was from me!

 The boys loved the egg hunt too!  Landon hung onto his basket and put eggs in, I hung onto Tristan's and occasionally he put an egg in!

Saturday we did our Easter at the farm as always the food was great and time spent with family was great!  The boys got spoiled by their godparents and grandparents!  They got a big truck that they LOVED and still are loving! 

Sunday we hung out with mom and dad and played ouside adn swung on my mom's swing she loves and then got on the road right after lunch so the boys could sleep in the car.  Once again a great weekend that went way to fast.  We are very blessed with our families we have!  I thank God daily for what he has given us!

Ms. Ella turns 1

This past weekend we went to Omaha for Ms. Ella's first birthday!  It was a fun weekend and good to see everyone and as always went way to fast.  I can't believe Ella is one already!!  The Bodammer baby of the family is already one, man time goes so fast.  Here are some pictures of our weekend.   We spent a lot of time outside and just hanging out with grandma and grandpa! 
Beautiful ms. ella and uncle Jared


Ella is thinking, why is eveyroen starring at me and singing:)

Yippee for me another present


Best attempt at getting all the little ones in a picture


Then on Sunday we hung at grandpa's and grandma's while Jared helped his brother do some work.  It was such a great day that grandma got out her water toy, the boys LOVED it!  They love playing in water of any kind.  Tristan could do it all day no matter if hot or cold out!






Grandma got the boys an Easter basket too!

SPRING is HERE!!!


This past weekend was GREAT!! We didn't have any out of town plans so our main plan was to spring clean inside and out, I have to say Jared did an awesome job outside and he did help me vacuum inside since my back has been bothering me.  I have had some back problems in the past and the weekend before Whoopers and Hoopers, (National tournament weekend) my back was bothering me.  Playing basketball for a whole weekend probably didn't help, but was worth being on the court with my friends again.  I was really sore last week actually could hardly move and has SLOWLY gotten a little bit better.  Saturday with doing all the house work and playing with boys and such it was really sore again Saturday but hopefully with some more rehab and treatment this week it will be getting better. 

Friday afternoon we went to visit Kris' new office and then to the museum and the boys enjoyed it.  They loved looking at the animals in there and the trucks.  They are into looking at things and pointing at everything saying "wha dat".  After dad got home we didn't do a whole lot besides hanging outside with the boys, as I said before they love being outside. 





Saturday we did some major cleaning and then we had some friends over to grill out before going to the Bandits game (Sioux City's indoor football team).  I am loving this weather we are having, it is absolutely AWESOME!! Boys enjoyed the game and did pretty good considering they go to bed by 8:00 and it was 10 before we left the game.  They would dance when music played and clap when the crowd clapped.  The thing they loved the most were the stairs and climbing up and down them which made mommy and daddy exhausted and mommy's back hurt real bad!  After the game we came back to our house, put the boys to bed and sat around the fire with friends and chatted!  It was so nice out and we love sitting outside with good friends! 


The boys are really into Koda's food bowls, I don't know why but if it entertains them I figure what does it hurt.

Landon thinking he is funny at the game


Sunday we did some more cleaning, mostly Jared because my back was sore and I was in charge of keeping boys out of daddy's way.  We got a lot of the outside stuff cleaned up.  While boys napped I went through all there clothes and packed away there clothes they have outgrown.  That was hard on mommy I would say, "aww remember when they wore this or I can't believe they were that small or they are growing up soo fast.   It was a good project to get done tho.  We brought clothes up for the next sizes which was fun to see the new stuff they will be growing into!  Hoping to get the garage cleaned up this week...lots to throw!

So glad SPRING is here, lately the weather has felt like summer!  Enjoy your week!
