March Extras...

Avery all ready for Dance pictures!

Star of the Week poster! She was so excited for mom to come to her class and tell them about her! She brought some of her favorite things to show to her class! Avery loves attention, and wants to be the "Star" ALL THE TIME!!

Some of the cousins over to play!

Someone's been to the Color Festival!?!

What a mess.....but he had tons of fun throwing colored chalk at people!

Dylan as Captain Ahab, for his school report!

Ay Ay, Cap'n!

Out to dinner at Mimi's for Kirk's Birthday!

Kirk's new favorite place to eat!

Little Miller.....growing too fast!

Dylan was sick and missed 2 days of school!

So he got to have a "TV dinner" on the couch with our sweet old lunch trays! One of my kid's favorite parts of being sick! They are SO easy to please!

Kirk's 40th Birthday!!!

The BIG 4-0!!!

Some of our staff decorated Kirk's office so when he came to work this morning, he was completely surprised!

Notice the wheelchair, depends, urinal, etc! All these items are easy to come by at our work....

and will really come in handy now that Kirk is Over the Hill!!!

One of our favorite residents, Deanna, wishing Kirk a Happy Birthday!!

lots of fun treats and novelty items!

And the party continues at our house!

1st Kirk has to cut Miller's fingernails....

He is the designated nail cutter for the kids in both our families!

Justus celebrating!!

New clothes, and a gift card for a massage!

If you think Kirk is OLD, raise your little tiny index finger!!!

OH YAH!!!

It took both Tyler and Jaret to light ALL THOSE CANDLES!!!

"Happy Birthday to You......"

Happy Birthday, Old Man!

We love you....hope you will be around for (at least) another 40 years!

OLD FART PARTY!!!

Kirk is turning the BIG 4-0 in a few days! I planned an "Old Fart Party" for all of Kirk's friends to celebrate all of them turning forty this year! We met at Ruby River for dinner, and then came back to our house for games, cake and ice cream, and just to hang out! Of course, the party ended early...because the Old Farts can't stay up too late anymore! We had so much fun!

The cake.....

The Old Farts.....

Chris Creer, Kirk, Matt Stewart, Paul Roundy, and Bret Perrero!

(Several of Kirk's other friends couldn't make it tonight!)

All the ladies talking about how OLD our husbands are!!!

Me, Kami Creer, Nicole Stewart, Mundi Perrero....

Playing some fun games....

Kirk.....the Honorary Old Fart!!!

Avery's Kindy 500...

At Mapleton Elementary School, the Kindergarten classes have a Kindy 500! This is where all the kids make a car out of a cardboard box at home and then parade around the school! They make several "stops" around the "USA" and learn about historical people and events! (I got to be the Statue of Liberty in NYC and teach the kids about how Lady Liberty came to be)! Avery picked out the color of her car....and her racing stripe tape! Her and her dad made her car together and she was so proud of how it turned out!!

The headlights and hood ornament!

and a Utah liscense plate, of course!

Lining up for the parade at school!

lots of cute and creative cars....

What a fun day! I love how excited Kindergarten kids are to learn new things!

Tyler's going to Preference!!

Tyler got asked to SHS Preference Dance tonight, by Ashli Averett! They have been liking eachother since last summer, so he is really excited to go on an official date with her!

This is how she asked him......

.....and this is how he answered her!

Introducing Miller Paul Jeffers....

On St. Patrick's Day, March 17th 2011, we got a new little cousin....

Miller Paul Jeffers!!!

He was born by c-section at 7:49 a.m, and weighed 5lbs 13oz.

He is such a cute little guy!

We love you Miller, and are so happy to have you in our family!!

Congratulations to Matt and Ashlee!!!

I actually got to go back in the OR during Ashlee's C-section! It was awesome to see Miller make his big enterance into the world! And, since I am Miller's FAVORITE aunt, it was very important for me to see him first!!!

Happy mamma!

Proud pappa!

Cannon with his new little brother!

Ryder loves him already!

sooooooo cute!

The Jeffers' Family!!!

Miller with his FAVORITE aunt!!

I was trying to convince Kirk that we should have another one....

he had to set Miller down and then go and vomit!

Jaret's really excited for his new cousin!

Dylan (who thinks he is a Jeffers) loves his new little brother / cousin!!

Avery likes to smother him with kisses!

.....and Tyler even took some time out of his busy schedule

to come to the hospital to see the baby!
