Birthday Boy

April arrived and with it a very excited 5 year old boy. Carter could not wait to turn 5. We took him out to lunch at Steak 'n' Shake. He is so much fun to talk to and be around. He loves to talk to Mike and I like he is one of the adults. He makes us so happy and proud.

We had a birthday party for Pratt and Carter, however I was so busy helping with games and chasing the 8 five year olds that pictures seem to be forgotten, unfortunately.  


 The Kamry and May saga!  They go through such different emotions they are either helping each other get into trouble, they are fighting, or the best of pals! We obviously prefer the latter of the three. Lately it seems they are trying to get along a little better, not that they do not have their moments. 


Kamry loves when Daddy gets home! Helping with the lawn! 
Carter also was able to go to a Ninja warrior class at a local gymnastic gym. It was adorable! Carter and Pratt were hilarious and ran through with some serious determination. It was a fun trial class we were happy we could do it!

Camping, Easter, and Big changes

March was a great month, although we are ready for some consistent weather. We were able to go on a bike ride at the end of February, because it was so beautiful. However the last few weeks have been raining and cold and some snow has fallen. So here, at the Williams we are greatly anticipating some warm weather. We did get to go on a camping trip during Mike's Spring break. We didn't really get to "rough it" but we did have a great time.

Collecting firewood!

Not sure if this was the safest way to chop wood... but he is didn't have serious injury.

The Fruit of his labors!
Daddy's big helper!
A view from our hike! 



Carter was quite the hiker.
Easter was quiet, but awesome this year. We woke up and watched a video on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. After breakfast we dyed eggs, had an Easter egg hunt and just laughed and enjoyed our Sunday morning. During the egg dying we told the kids we were having BABY in November!
 They were excited, after we convinced them that we were not teasing, (Carter was confused because I did not have a belly). We cannot wait to add to this great little family we have, Carter wants a brother and Kamry changes every day depending on her mood.

BABY WILLIAMS #3!! Due November 9th, 2016
We have been able to serve a lot in the last couple of months for a sister in our ward. The kids have been such troopers and we have loved to teach them the importance of service. On this day it was a down pour rain, as we were trying to get Shelly in the van, she is in a wheelchair, the rain was so loud we told Kamry and Carter to stay under the roof of the building. However, it was such crazy rainstorm we could hear and barely see, so Kam started to get scared and ran out to the road and we caught her before she got out to far, but it was a crazy 5 minutes. These are the smiles after being safely in the car for a while.



Happy Easter!!








Family fun time!
  We had a great Spring Break, we did wish we could of done some more family activities. It was a cold and busy week, and not as relaxing as we would of liked, but it started great with our fun camping trip!
