 Pumpkin party outside in the 80 degree weather!!  Woot!!!


 We were initially going for a Narnia theme.  Madeline and Moira are Queen Jill and Queen Lucy at the ward party Elijah was Aslan and Joseph was Reepicheep, but Joseph's costume fell apart and Elijah needed something different!  Isn't he cute?!?
 So fun!!!!!! 

Pretty girls!!!

 Now all the Dustins have officially been Nemo when they were two!  I should find pictures of all of them...
 Madeline's friend Chloe came trick or treating with us and we met up with our cousin Jayden too!  It was a fun, candy filled night!!!
There were some officers patrolling the streets and giving out candy and when they saw Elijah they invited him to sit in their car!!!!!  WHAT?!!?

Airforce Museum

 I haven't had a really awesome picture of everybody for awhile!!!  YAY!!!!  

 We decided to head over to the Dayton Airforce Museum today!

 On the way in we read the signs in the parking lot that said absolutely no food, so we did our picnic in the memorial park before heading in!

It was awesome!

 Joseph loves to run!
 He's pretty cute, huh?

 We thought a lot about Grandpa Dustin!  I wish I would've known what airplanes he flew specifically, but he'll just have to come show us sometime!  :)

Moira's favorite airplane


Elijah's favorite helicopter airplane!

 Madeline's (and probably my) favorite airplane!  This cute volunteer worker took our picture for us!

Learning about flight school for WWI.

This merits an explanation... I wasn't going to put it up, but Josh said I should.  There was no way to not walk by this airplane and of course Moira says, "Oh, Strawberry Bitch?"  There were two men taking a picture with the airplane that started almost crying they were laughing so hard.  After they walked around the corner I had to explain to Madeline and Moira what was funny.  Moira felt really bad she had said something she shouldn't, but I told her it definitely was not her fault and not a big deal.  The men came back around the corner and asked if they could take a picture for me, because we had just made their day.  Of course, I couldn't refuse.  Thus... here is our picture!  The funny thing was when we walked past I heard another mom talking to her 10 or so year old son about the same thing... I had heard him say it too!  HA!  I wish they had a hidden camera it would be funny to see the reactions.

Happy Easter!!!

We are so thankful for a Savior who overcame sin and death so we could return to live with our Heavenly Father again!!  HAPPY EASTER!!!  Here are a few pictures!
 Well... this is actually St. Patrick's day! 
 It's kind of a tradition to have a green breakfast!  Yuck, but fun!  :)
 We went to a really fun Easter Egg hunt at a church down the road from us!
 We all had a lot of fun!
 The kids loved getting their faces painted... however it was freezing and raining! 
 Oh, but it was worth it!  :)
 Oh yeah!  Football on the face!
 Lovin it!
 My sweet baby!  Loves to try and turn on screens (notice the remote controller AND the kindle at his feet)... nice try bud!  :)
 Last Sunday Moira decided she wanted to be a flying unicorn.  You can't see if, but she has a tail too!
 I think we participated in 4 different little egg hunts this year... spoiled kids!
 This is what Josh does every Saturday and every day off!  Remodel our master bathroom.  He's three months into every Saturday!  Phew!  He's mudded and taped and sanded dry wall this weekend!  Yuck!
Joseph was still sleeping when I took this Easter picture this morning!!!  Cute, kids eh?!?!
