Easter

We had a fun Easter this year. The kids both enjoyed a couple Easter Egg hunts and getting a few fun things in their Easter Baskets!

March 22, 2013

Our sweet little Ava turned 1. Ava is such a sweet little girl who definitely loves to have her way. She is very girl and loves to wear necklaces, bracelets, carry around any purse or bag and to have her toenails painted. She is starting to say a lot of different words, her favorites being Dad, yes, hi. bye and Mom which she usually always yells.

Lawson loves to help her with everything and they play really well together. Ava loves to go on walks and tries to climb everything.

We love this little girl so much and are so glad she is a fun part of our family!

Catch Up!

So it has been awhile. We have had a great Spring and Summer and now we are heading into the Fall. In the next couple of days I will be adding a few events that have happened in the last few months and then hopefully I will stay more caught up with things. Enjoy!

Enough Already!

So this year has been crazy with all of the snow, all of the germs and all of the cold weather. It has been such a cold winter with a lot of snow and a lot of sickness going around.

Enough already! WE WANT SPRING!!

Valentine's Day 2013

Valentine's Day was good to the Fetzer's this year! Lawson made Valentine's for his cousins and a couple of neighbors. He practiced writing his name on all of them so that was fun too. He had a ball secretly delivering them to all of the houses.

Jake was going to cook us dinner, but work went a lot longer than he had expected. I finally fed the kiddos around 7 and then after a text from Jake that said he would still be awhile I put our dinner in the oven. I finally picked Jake up just after 9. We had a quiet evening without the kids since it was already so late. Lawson and Ava got a little Valentine gift from us before bed and that was about it. It was a fun time, low key and relaxing. Perfect!

Happy Valentine's day to my two little Valentine's!

Happy Valentine's Day to this Stud!

And a Happy Valentine's Day to all of you from the Fetzer's!

4 Years Old

So Lawson had his 4th birthday in January...Can't believe this fun and energetic boy is already 4! We had pizza for his birthday and cake for dessert. We also celebrated with my side because their are 2 other birthdays in January (mine and Zach's). We had cake and ice cream and gifts at my parents. His Aunts and Uncles and Grandparents are also so thoughtful with the gifts. Laws loves the gifts, but really just enjoys anytime he gets to spend with them. Thanks guys, we love you!

I attempted a Mario cake. Nothing too fancy, I am not that talented. I did put some Mario toys on it so that made it great to Lawson.

Lawson gets so excited for birthdays and holidays. It is a lot of fun.

It was also my month for Playgroup with the Fetzer cousins and Amy was nice enough help us organize a little playgroup party at The Little Gym. Boy did the kiddos have fun!

We ended the playtime with Mario cupcakes!

Thanks Aunt Amy for making it so fun!!

Lawson loves Scooby doo, Mario and the Avengers. His favorite colors are green and blue. His favorite food is mac'n cheese and pizza. He loves to sing and especially loves learning holiday songs. He is really into coloring right now and can write his name. He is also doing really well with his numbers and with all of the letters sounds. He is growing up so fast! We love him and are so proud of him!

Missionaries!

Nathan and Landon (Jake's brothers who are twins) just received their mission calls to Honduras. One around the ocean area and another in the amazon area. They are both doing great in the MTC and we are so proud of them. We love them and wish them the very best the next two years! We are especially excited to have missionaries to write to, Lawson especially!

Elder Landon Fetzer

We have a Sunbeam and 10 month-old!

Guess Who is in Sunbeams....

First Day of Sunbeams

This girl is growing up too fast!

Lawson started Sunbeams at the first of the year and just loves it! The second week he was already giving a talk in Sunbeams and he rocked it! He memorized a lot of it and at the end when Jake and I were leaving he ran up to us and asked where his candy was in front of the whole primary. Awesome! So we told him he could have a treat if he did a good job and didn't act silly, nothing wrong with that, right?!

As for Ava she is growing up so fast. She does the Mama and Dada thing along with a few other sounds and is making her way around everything. She is pretty petite, loves to give hugs and kisses and is full of smiles!

We love both of these kiddos so much and are so glad to be blessed with such a happy and healthy family!

Christmas 2012

So our family did a lot of fun things during this Christmas Season. I will post pictures and write a little bit about some of them below. We took Laws and Ava on a drive to Christmas Street, which we used to do when I was young, and he loved it. It was a fun time.

Christmas Eve we hung out. Jake finished some shopping and I got things ready for the next day. We finished all of the wrapping and other things by midnight or so. Before Lawson and Ava went to bed they got to open a present. PJ's and a Christmas book to read before bed. It was a fun time!

As for Christmas Day we did our usual. We got up and opened presents. Santa filled our stockings well. Then we opened all the presents under the tree. Lawson had so much fun and loved every minute of it. Ava loved the paper! We went to the Fetzer side for German Breakfast and mingled a little bit there. Then we headed to the Clift's for lunch. We had a great time there and also did our gift exchange. Then we headed back to the Fetzer's for dinner. We had a great time and enjoyed all the time we were

able to spend with our families!

New Year's Eve we spent a few hours with some of the Fetzer's and Grandma and Grandpa Cooper over at the ward with some yummy goodies, games and the movie UP. We had a good time interacting with everyone as usual and found out Grandpa had some mad beginner skills at UNO!

We spent a wonderful holiday together and enjoyed the holiday snow...but are ready for spring anytime!!
