Birthday, Easter, Birthday, Spring

Tate turned 7 in February.

 

This kid is so awesome!

He is super smart, very helpful, hilariously funny and meticulous.

 

He is my first pick if I need someone to help me with a job.

 

I love how expressive he is.

 

He treats all of his friends with kindness and respect.

 

Man I love this kid!

 

Tate chose to make paper airplanes you shoot with a straw at his birthday party.

Here the boys are atarting our garden for the year. 

 



 

Bekett learned the comforts of the stinkbug!

 

Greysen is not a morning person

Fearing splashing colored water we decided to try a new technique for coloring eggs this year.

 



 

Shaving creme and food coloring.

 



And I got no pictures of the finished eggs!  Bummer.  They looked dooper cool though.

 



Love Easter morning hair!

 

 

 



 

We braved the Apple Blossom Parade this year but little did we know it would be a 3 hour affair. 

 

We were not prepared

 

Our favorite float was the Police bikes!

 

Bekett turned 1!

 

He is so stinking adorable!

 

He loves to cuddle.

 

I am his favorite!

 

He loves to eat berries and drink milk.  Most other things he will take a bite of and then spit them out.

 

He loves to play with his brothers.

 

Here he is with his cake...

 

 

 

 



 

Love the classic photobomb by Greysen wanting a bite.

 



 

Bekett hed some birthday pictures taken.  She had a hard time gettin ghim to smile since she is a stranger but they are still adorable!

 

 

 

Tate participated in an engineering club where they built towers and then competed with the other schools for the highest tower.



 

 

 

He came in first for his school and second overall.

 

He wears the medal everyday!

 

Man I love this kid!

Talents!

We have had some great opportunities to share our talents over the past few months.

Zoe continues to take piano lessons and this is one of her recitals.

Zoe started to play the cello this year.  This is one of her school performances.

Zoe also continues in dance

Tate got to display his kedama skills at the ard talen show.

Zoe played piano at the ward talent show

Tate also continues in piano lessons and performed at the ward talent show.

Not to be shown up by his siblings Grey put on an impromptu performance.

Since I am the Young Woman's President I was required to participate.  It was my Secretary Ami's dream to do chin singing.

Ben is in the Bishopric so they also preformed a talent.

Fun Times!



It is super busy in the Sorensen house right now.  Here is an update of some of the fun things we have done so far this year.

 

Tate gave basketball a try under gret duress.  He does not try new things willingly.  In fact when he learned to read and we asked if he wanted to go to Disney Land he said, "NO!"

 

Anyway, he had a hard time because the baskets were so high but he finished it out and we were proud of him.

 

 

Zoe decided that she wanted to try the Cello this year in Orchestra.  She likes it better than the Viola although she thinks it is harder.

Zoe is still playing piano too.
 

 

 

Tate is playing piano still also.

 

Bekett is not yet playing any instruments but he does blow a mean oatmeal raspberry!

 



 

He has an adorable laugh too!

He has also learned to voice his opinion...
 

 

He loves being naked and taking baths.
 

Greysen of course has to jump in front of the camera to show off his cutness!

 

 

Bekett is also working on getting in and out of tight places.
