Knock, Knock

Hunter's recent thing is to tell knock knock jokes. After I picked him up from school last Thursday he told me his first one. It's hard not to laugh when he tells a joke because it's not funny. In fact, they really don't make any sense. After he tells a joke he busts up laughing and it's hard not to join him. Here are 2 that I remember:

Knock, Knock
Who's there?
Strawberry
Strawberry Who?
Strawberry Cake!

Knock, Knock
Who's there?
Kitchen Light
Kitchen Light Who?
Turn off the kitchen light!

We have tried to get him to tell us more but now he's embarrassed. I'll have to keep working on him to tell me more. I don't know if these are parts of jokes that someone has told him and he's forgotten the big punchline or if he's just making them up. I think I'll go with the second answer. Regardless, I love it. He makes me laugh!

Easter Weekend

This last weekend was a fun, family weekend. Kelly had Good Friday off so we decided it would be a good day to dye eggs. The kids enjoyed dying eggs but of course they didn't have the patience to leave them in the dye for more than a few seconds. They had a good time regardless.

Later that night the kids went to my parents ward Easter party while Kelly and I had a little date night. We decided to go bowling. Let's just say that both of us bombed and prefer to think that our Wii Bowling scores are just as good as our real scores.

We have family in town so we asked the Easter Bunny if he could come to our house a day earlier. He hid our dyed eggs along with plastic eggs throughout our family room. The kids had fun finding eggs and only needed a little help with a few eggs that were a little more inconspicuous than the rest. Hunter is helping Mylie find an egg in the picture above.

The Easter Bunny put the kids Easter baskets on a bench in our room so the kids wouldn't be distracted with the eggs hidden around the family room while the saw what the Easter bunny brought them in their baskets. Hunter thought it was pretty hilarious that the bunny "hopped" into our room without us hearing him. I told Hunter that he must have tiptoed but Hunter insisted that he hopped.

Hunter and Kora are both showing the eggs that they found.

On Sunday the kids got dressed in their brand new Easter clothes that their Nani made and got for them. Hunter refers to his suit as his "Missionary" (suit). He had to try it on numerous times throughout the week. He loved it. Kora LOVED the big fluffy dress her Nani made her. Every time Hunter tried on his suit she HAD to try on her dress and they HAD to dance together. Hunter likes to spin her around. I guess you can only dance like that when you are wearing nice clothes (according to Hunter).

Church was nice, then it was off to Nani & Grandpa's house for Easter dinner. We enjoyed a fun day with the Zamora family (Kelly's sister, Becky's family) who happens to be down for the week and Great Grandpa.
To all our family and friends we hope that you had a wonderful Easter!

T-Ball

Hunter has finally started T-Ball. His first practice started last week but this was my first time at his practice and I made sure to bring the camera...if only I had thought to check the battery. I apologize that the picture isn't that great. I tried taking as many as I could before the batteries died but all of them were fuzzy because I was trying to take them from far away so I wouldn't interrupt the practice.


Hunter is on the Diamondbacks. They haven't received their shirts and hats yet but we'll make sure to take pictures once they do. This is a city league rather than "Little League" but little league doesn't allow 4 years olds to play. Hunter would have had to wait an entire year. Since this is more of an educational/social experience for him we thought it would be fun to sign him up. Kelly has signed up as an Assistant coach. It was fun to watch Kelly teaching the kids. He's a great coach and despite how frustrating it could get with all the kids chasing the ball and then dog piling on it as the ball was hit, he has surprisingly great patience. I'm glad that the boys have this time together to bond and share in the wonderful sport that is baseball.
