Fire Station

Scott volunteers for the Cascade Fire Department. Cascade is located 70 or so miles north of Boise, in the mountains. It's a small town, and because of that, all the fire fighters can hang out at their own homes when they are on call. Since Scott is the only volunteer who doesn't live up there, he's alone at the fire station most of the time. Spencer and I decided to come up, and stay overnight at the station with him.

Spence had a BLAST checking out the fire truck and ambulance

long day at the station

Easter

The day before Easter = Easter egg hunt day!! This was Spencer's first Easter egg hunt in which he could participate, and he totally got the concept. He was hunting eggs with the best of them. Our first egg hunt was at my Grandma and Grandpa Mortensen's house. They have an awesome yard for Easter egg hunts, big front yard, big pasture, big garden area, fun play area, and a big area spit in two by a creek...with rope swing.....perfect for Easter egg hunts.

This is Spencer when we first arrived, so excited about the hunt:)

Getting ready to start

And he's off

The fam watching the egg hunt

I think I see one....I'm goin for it!!

Spencer was loaded with prizes and candy after that one....now onto hunt #2. His 2nd hunt was with Scott's side in Nampa at his Aunt's house.

After the 1st egg hunt, Spencer was all hunted out. So he mostly played in the play house with cousin Jackson

They are up to no good

"WHEEEE"

EASTER MORNING

Scott and Spencer looking for their Easter basket

"I found it, I found it!!"

Spencer loves Chevron cars, since Scott is diving into the fire/paramedic field I got them the Chevron fire truck

You know, finding an Easter outfit for a boy is just not as fun as finding an Easter dress

Happy Birthdays!

It looks like Lindsey has a set of twins. We have a few pictures where Alex and Natalie look exactly alike. You'd never guess that one just turned 3 and one is 6 1/2!
