UNDER THE SEA........

Since the kids were out for Spring Break, Jim and I decided to take them all to the Living Aquarium in Sandy. We had a ball. So much to see, so much to learn.


We were lucky that Dan, Joe's Dad was up from Fillmore for a Dr. appointment and went with us, here he is with Tricia and Danelle in the boat on Salt Lake.(haa haa)

Here is Shani in the South American Jungle, with Stetson, ( note Jim and Dan in the background)
they were looking at crocadiles. Stetson was watching some cool frogs.

Here are the kids in front of a crazy, wavy mirror.



Then we have the girls petting the Sting Rays
.







Matt came up after work to see what he could see, and apparently we just missed Cindy and fam, sorry Cindy. Would have been nice to see ya!!!!

THE QUILT IS DONE..........

I finally finished my quilt! It is far from perfect, but I had fun doing it and learned a lot. I may tackle another next winter.


SPRING TIME IN UTAH........

We woke up to 8 inches of snow this morning. By 10 a.m. it was 50 degrees and the water was running down the road from the snow melting. We are supposed to get more this afternoon. Oh the wonders of springitime.

APRIL BIRTHDAYS


We have 3 Birthdays this month:
Shantelle, Gentry and Courtney. And of course, we have to remember Grandpa Dan, whose birthday would have been April 21. So here is a shout out to all of you , for a Happy Day and lots of Love. You are important to our family!!!!!!!!

THE COX CLAN...................


Susical, the Musical...................

Shay had the part of Thing 2 in the school play " Susical the Musical", her friend was Thing 1.
Jim and I went to watch her last night and took McKinley and Sydney with us. Shani and the rest of the kids decided to come later on. Shay did an awesome job. She has a lot of cute facial expressions that she used, as the Things did not talk!!!! They did flips and all kinds of other things, but no talking!!!!

After it was over, we got all the cousins together and took their pictures. Shay dumped a whole ton of paper shredds on Grandma, She was covered. McKinley took a picture, but my eyes were closed and I looked awful, so I am not posting that. But we had fun, lots of music and laughs!!!!!




TIME FOR PEAS........

Grandpa Dan taught Jim that peas should be planted on St. Patrick's day, so we can have peas by July 4th. Each year he has the help of some of the Grandkids, this year it was Sydney

Stetson, McCrae


And Sadie's turn.


And I am sure they will be here in July to help harvest! Just not sure how many will make it to the kitchen!!!!





A little slow with this picture! (what is new?) Here is Erick, Todd and Danelle for their March
Birthdays. We had strawberry and Kiwi filled cake, with tons of whipped cream. Yumm!!!
Jace was at a ballgame, out of town, and Wylene (sigh) we missed you too.
