Easter

We had a fun but HOT easter this year. The kids looked adorable in their Easter attire and we had a fun egg hunt.











Spring Break

Spring Break this year was great. We did a lot of fun things that were cheap or free. I didn't take pictures of everything. It was a nice break from the hectic school/sports schedule we have. Only thing that would have made it better would be for Luke to have it off too. We went swimming, out to lunch, to movies, a park that has big horn sheep, and sky zone.

I have gone at least a dozen times to this park to see these so called sheep people tell me about. I have never seen them before. We finally saw them and they were amazing. Such a fun experience.

I also gave each of the kids a pair of sunglasses. The excitement of that lasted about 2 days and who knows where they are now.

I saw some a great deal on Groupon for SkyZone so I snatched some up for the family. It was a fun thing to do. Something very different for us. The minute they let us in we never gone saw Nick. He was in heaven. I think he hung out by the dodgeball area the whole time.
 

 











Baseball

From March to June Baseball is our life. This was our first year having 2 boys play. Luke coached Parker's  t-ball team. Nick was finally old enough to play in a more competitive league. It was so much fun seeing him play and I'm not going to lie I might have screamed really loud and a lot during the season. What can I say, I am one of those moms. Nick played mostly 2nd base and he was really good at it. He just came natural to him.










This was Parker's first year at baseball. He has been waiting for this day for a long time. He loved having Luke as his coach. He was also very lucky to have his cousin Jack on the team. It was fun thing for them to do together before they left us and moved :( Tball is a different story. It's crazy and lucky me was able to be the dugout mom. Let's just say I was a little frazzled trying to keep 12 5 year olds contained and trying to make sure Noah didn't run out on the field. One day I will be able to just sit and watch my kids. Just me on my chair with a Diet Coke in hand. Ahhh that sounds nice. We were super excited when baseball season ended.The picture of Parker with the harmonica is priceless. He got this thing from who knows where. Eww gross. Well he put it in his pocket without us knowing. I couldn't be at his game because Nick had a game at the same time. All of a sudden I get at least 5 texts from friends saying that my son is playing the harmonica in outfield. Typical Parker thing to do. I so wish I was there to see it.

Zockoll Cousins

Back in March my sisters came to Vegas for a week and it was so much fun! It's hard not being by my sisters sometimes. We have a lot of fun and I love seeing my kids with their children. We went out to eat a lot, and to the park a lot. My kids are always sad to see them go home, and so am I.








Catch up

Holy crap, how did I let myself get so behind on my blogging. I went through my pictures and I had 24 posts waiting for me to write.  Feeling slightly overwhelmed here...but I am determined to get them done before we leave for Utah next week. Wish me luck!

Back in January Nicholas played basketball. He of course loved it. There isn't a sport this kid doesn't love. Luke was his coach this year.




Parker also gave his first talk a couple months ago. He insisted on wearing his suit. He was adorable.







Stitches


 Within 3 months all 3 of my boys were at the ER. Nick and Noah actually did get stitches, and Parker had his glued. Although I am pretty sure Parker broke his nose which will have to probably be fixed when he is older. Oh the joy of having boys.....wild boys!




Saturday Mornings

 Every Saturday morning we do our chores and the kids are in charge of taking all the sheets off the bed. After they do that I throw all the sheets and towels over the railing on them. The love it! In the picture above they are waiting for it.
 And then they are covered. It's so simple but yet they giggle and freak out everytime.
