Playing catch up, 'cause I didn't keep up, and all I want is a hot dog with ketchup!!

Well, as most of you know, life gets crazy busy sometimes. Seems like lately it's all the time at the Hills' place. Here's a few pics from the past few months!!

Happy Easter!

Some how Chad just so happened to have Easter off!!

Camping in the backyard with Dad!!
(did I mention their tent was well equipped with TV, heater and blow up bed!! Livin' large!)

Hot Chocolate by the fire pit!
Crazy kid!
The other day I found Nixon making himself comfortable on a bed of protein powder and a couple of boxes of mac and cheese ! He cracks me up!!

Good times in Utah!!
So Mom came to visit us here in WA and we decided to take a road trip and visit Heather, Josh and the boys in Utah! It was sooo much fun!
Aunt Heather giving everyone the low down on how to bowl. This is serious stuff!!
Lexi and Devin the Dynamic Dou! Those two were inseparable!!
"Strike" a pose! (I'm a dork!)
So Zane, despite his best efforts, was down the entire game. (Trey was taking everyone to school with his mad bowling skills!!) On the VERY LAST frame Zane bowled a spare and got an extra turn because of it. On the extra turn he bowled a strike and beat out everyone by 1 point! I need to take this kid to Vegas with me!!
The Three Musketeers

Gimme some wings, baby!!

Park City!


Even General Conference put Nixon to sleep!! Just jokin! Dad and Josh were so awesome to let Heather, Mom and I go catch the Sunday afternoon session of conference!!

Lexi...Devin...MAD!!

TAX RETURN
Chad- gets new tools!
Kids- get new play ground (built by Chad's new tools!)
Beth- gets a speeding ticket. Lovely!

Silly Faces!!

Happy B-day Chad!!
So I had grandiose visions of making this Paula Deen chocolate layered cake. Needless to say it was a flop (literally!) and I ending up making some killer parfaits out of it! Love my guy!
