Build-A-Bear

In following tradition of when my nephew Maddox turned three and my sister took him and Logan to the Build-A-Bear workshop to pick out a bear, this time she took my nephew Parker and Sawyer out there to celebrate Parker turning three. The boys had a blast picking out their bear, filling him up, giving him a bath, picking out an outfit, and finding a name for their new little friends! Sawyer named his Diego and he is a firefighter bear, and Parker named his Clifford and he is dressed as a racecar driver. Thanks again Aunt Jen, Sawyer had so much fun and he loves his new bear!

Easter Day

We had a busy fun-filled Easter Day here at the Tedesco household. The morning started with a little easter egg hunt in the house. Poor Sawyer just followed Logan around, chasing him trying to find an egg. He was able to find a few that Logan missed. We then went outside in the backyard for another Easter egg hunt. This time Sawyer had the hang of it and started in a different direction from Logan. They both ended up with tons of eggs and therefore candy-the Easter Bunny was certainly generous this year! We then went back indoors where I had planned an Easter Scavenger Hunt throughout the whole house where the boys got to search for their Easter Baskets and a special surprise-a new bike for Sawyer and a new scooter for Logan! We then went to church for a great Easter Service, where the kids all had yet another Easter Egg Hunt outdoors afterwards! It was such a beautiful day we decided to head to the park after church where the boys could try out their new bike and scooter and play for awhile. When we came home we put up the trampoline and played and relaxed the rest of the day, and we had a very yummy traditional Easter Dinner that night. We all went to bed exhausted from such a fun-filled busy day!

Sunny Las Vegas

We took a trip to Las Vegas to visit my Mom and Stan since they just moved back down there. We couldn't have picked a better time to go because the weather here was snowy and cold the whole time we were gone! We did the tourist thing and spent some time on the strip going to Circus Circus to play some games, and went to the Mirage and walked around the pool where I use to work (oh what memories!), and enjoyed watching the dolphins, white tigers, and white lions at the Secret Garden. The boys all went down to the race track and were able to sit in a race car, and then went to Nellis Air Force Base where they were able to see the tanks and airplanes, and even hold a rifle. It was so nice to relax and to visit family while we were there, and are already planning our next trip down this summer!

March 2009

Here are some pictures taken this month. We have been fortunate to enjoy a few days of spring-like weather here, and we were able to take a trip to Las Vegas to visit family and enjoy some outdoor activities. We are looking forward to baseball games, yard work, Easter, and hopefully some warmer weather in the coming month!

Welcome Spring!

Even though the first official day of spring isn't until tomorrow, we celebrated it today by heading over to the Draper Park with the Vincent clan. The boys all had a blast playing with each other- swinging, riding their bikes and scooters, and running around. Jen and I were able to visit a little while trying to keep track of all the boys since it seemed like every mom in Draper had the same idea we had and the park was packed. Baby Kensley watched all the activity and enjoyed some sun-she didn't make a sound the whole time! Logan kept asking on the way home if we could go again in "two days". Hopefully the weather will stay as nice as it's been and we can do just that! We are so glad that Spring has finally arrived!!!

Baseball practice

In preparation of Logan starting Little League Baseball next month, we decided to head out to a local park that has a baseball diamond to practice. He loves to hit the ball and run around the bases while Sawyer and Jake chase him, and he has really improved in his throwing this year. We are looking forward to going to his games and cheering on his team! The boys also had fun playing on the playground they had there, sliding down and slide and swinging. It was just nice for us to be able to get out and enjoy some warm weather for a change since we all have a little bit of spring fever.
