It feels like Summer already.  Brett has started baseball.  He is playing Machine pitch this year.  At the last game he got to play catcher.  The uniform was so huge, but he was super proud wearing it.
On Sunday we took the new jeep for a test drive- to make sure the new rims and tires and lift were working well.  We ended up spending the day at Antelope Island.  At the park we went to the beach.  Caleb did not want to stand in the water- He is a pretty smart kid.  It was sort of stinky.  Brett however had no problem! It was a great day and we finished it off by a great dinner at bostons.

This summer is bring change to our world as well.  Justin is now off for the summer (no fair) and Brett will be done with school Friday (no fair).  While they are home playing for the summer I am starting a new job (yes again).... This time the job is only 8 miles from my house.   So I will be closer to home.  I have mixed feelings about starting a new job again but this is an opportunity I couldnt pass up!

Fish Lake 2012

We took a long/weekend to fish lake.  It was fun, the boys got to spend time with Nana and Grandpa and Justin got to get his new jeep muddy.
Brett had a hard time choosing the Razor or the Jeep.  Okay it wasnt really hard, he wanted to be on the Razor
Caleb and Nana had fun in the back seat all cuddled up watching Mickey Mouse
Justin enjoyed driving his new jeep
Brett and Grandpa had fun in the Razor
It doesnt look that steep here, but I was freaking out.

we made it to the edge
The whole family at the top of the world



look the new jeep got muddy

we even went over a big rock
Brett found a new chair on the ride, then grandpa accidentally broke it.

Justin's new toy

Justin said goodbye to his truck on Tuesday.  He really liked this truck so he was a little sad to see it go. 
But in its place he got his brand new, ordered to his specifications, bright orange Jeep Rubicon. 
So now our garage houses 3 jeeps.  According to Caleb- there is Mommy's Jeep, the Messy Jeep, and My Jeep (meaning Caleb's jeep).  Yes Caleb has staked claim already in the orange one.  Brett feels left out because he doesnt have a Jeep.

Brett's Bday Party/Jeeping

Brett had his 7th birthday party this weekend at a trampoline park.  Needless to say the boys and girls had tons of fun jumping around.  
These are his 2 cousins- Aleck and Jace

Jace stuck in the foam pit
Buddy Dax
Even Caleb got to jump

The entire group having pizza and donuts!  (Yes donuts because Brett hates cake)


Brett even blew out candles in the donut
So many fun friends came to celebrate
Thanks for all your help Aunt Jen and Missy
On Sunday we went Jeeping with some friends.   Brett and Caleb had fun with the top off.  Although it was a little cold.

We got a little muddy.... we are the grey jeep in the mud.

Brett's 7th Birthday

Brett turned 7 years old on April 21st.  He was very lucky and got a birthday with his Yia Yia and Papou about 3 weeks early!  He got a tablet that he can not put down.  He watches netflix, plays games, listens to music and takes pictures with it. 

Then on his birthday Grandma and Grandpa came up to celebrate.  Uncle Matt also came.

Brett loves mouse trap.  I swear that game NEVER ENDS, but he really likes building the chain reaction.  
Matt and Brett also played with the Rocket from Matt and Whitney. 
Matt could get it really high.
Also on Brett's birthday he played soccer and brought treats to his team.  The highlight of the game was when he score!!!!! It was also his team first win!!!!!  What a perfect day.
Brett also got a Rip Stick for his birthday.  Lets just say he still needs some help with this.
Uncle Matt couldnt figure it out either.
All in all it was a GREAT birthday and its not even over year.  He still has his actually party on Saturday!

The Jackson family took a trip to the zoo today.  It was Caleb's first.  Caleb and Brett got to ride in a wagon.
We saw a great big Gorilla.
Lots of slimy icky things.
Caleb got up close with a monkey
and we all got to ride the train
Brett was the navigator
Brett also got to slide down a snake
Caleb really liked the play ground but would not get inside this egg.
Brett was exhausted so he found this nice shady place to take a rest.
As you can see it was a GREAT day!!!!!
