Morning Time with the Earle's

Although our house is usually total chaos, there are times that the children suprise me and do something out of the ordinary. Today they all wanted to sit on the fireplace together quietly and make funny faces. I had to capture this moment because they were all so adorable and it is so rare that they all 4 want to just sit together and do something quietly without me asking.

Prosser Camping Trip

We ventured East for the long weekend to go camping in Prosser with Grandma and Grandpa Earle. Everyone was very excited for the trip as we had four nights and five days camping in front of us. Although everyone was filled with excitement, we couldn't seem to avoid reenacting the movie RV at every turn.

Below is our not-so Top 10 camping trip highlights.
#10 Bryson and Jaden constantly taking off from our campsite to visit every other kid in the park.
#9 Having the front tire in the Twins' double stroller go flat, and then after it was repaired, it BLEW UP!!! After that, the back tire popped.
#8 Jaden thought hanging on the wall coat hanger was a good idea...it wasn't, and it broke.
#7 The dogs puked all over our campsite, then shredded and ate an extremely poopy diaper in front of our trailer.
#6 We lost our only set of keys to the trailer.
#5 Brooklyn and Owen got up at 2 am on night one and played in their cribs for two hours - waking everyone else up.
#4 We stopped in Ellensburg to get our favorite Philly Cheese Steaks to find they changed and now suck.
#3 Owen cried and screamed for a combined 3 1/2 days of our five day trip.
#2 One of the dogs peed as if she hadn't gone to the bathroom in a week all over our bed while we were out and ruined our bed.
#1 The sewage hose came apart while Scott was emptying the tanks at our campsite - spilling toilet sewage all over the place.

Despite so many freak "accidents", we still had a lot of fun camping with grandma and grandpa and were thankful to be able to spend some time with them.

Home Run King!

Bryson is having so much fun playing baseball this year with dad as his coach. He is doing really good in the field, but his hitting is ahead of the game. Bryson and Jaden are left handed batters and can both really smack the ball. Here is a video from Bryson's game.

Spring Fun!

Over the last week we have had lot's of fun playing out in the sun and having our friends over.

Bryson's End of the Year Performance

Today Bryson had his end of the year performace for Kindergarten. It was called EiEiEiEi Oops! It was definetly priceless. All of the kids were so adorable, Bryson of course being the cutest. He even had a speaking part. We will add video of the performance later.

Tulips, Tulips, Tulips!

After wanting to check out the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival for several years, we finally rounded up the troops and headed north for the day to enjoy the flowers. The fields were absolutely amazing and almost seemed fake. The kids had a blast. Owen and Brooklyn watched from their normal perch - the double stroller, while Bryson and Jaden jumped through the mud. At one point, Bryson two foot jumped into a mud puddle and the mud splattered all over Owen and Brooklyn's faces.....he was busted!

Bryson's 1st Tball game of the season

Bryson had his first Tball game of the season. He did great and had a lot of fun. The first team they played was against the Raptors which had some of his friends from school on it. The weather was perfect and the whole family enjoyed the outing.

Day at the Zoo

We went to the zoo this morning and all of the animals were out showing off. The boys had a great time and the babies had their first experience seeing all of the animals out.
