Spring

Spring was actually pretty busy for us!  Paxton graduated from Munchkin University, with Miss Kara as his teacher.  He did so good and loved every second of preschool!

We also got bees in the early spring!  We have two hives, and it has been so fun to watch them work and grow.  Brandon is the only person who has been stung so far, although it may have been many times!  We haven't had a honey harvest yet, but we're hoping for a big one next fall! 

We also added another rabbit to the Ranch last spring.  This is Rabbit Boy {named by Colton}.  We got him from our friends the Carvers back in Middleton to breed with our two girls, Ana and Mr. Raptor {named by Paxton}. 

We celebrated Easter at our home again, and once again....couldn't get everyone to look and smile at the camera! Maybe next year!

We haven't been fishing nearly as much as we had hoped this year, and really only went in the spring. We may not have gone much, but Paxton and Colton both were able to catch the biggest fish of their lives! {so far}. 

The boys also played spring t-ball this year, and did great! But apparently when I am not doing the blog.....I don't take many pictures....so no pictures of Paxton playing!

We took a day trip to Yellowstone with my grandpa, and on our way home we almost ran over a TURTLE! On the HIGHWAY!  So of course we had to stop and save him {I feel like I need to clarify that this did not happen inside the park}.  We may or may not have taken him home, and he may or may not have escaped at some point during the summer.  {seriously....how have we lost not one, but TWO turtles since living here in Pocatello?}

And of course, what would springtime be like at Thunderbeast Ranch if Colton and Paxton didn't take it upon themselves to pick every single flower in our yard?  At least they are super cute when they say "I picked you a beautiful flower mom!"
