Family Ears

Dallin Picker

Clarence Rieman 
Dallin's Great-Great Grandfather

So my Dallin for sure doesn't have my ears and he doesn't have Aaron's Ears. I was wondering where in the family he got them from. I was starting to think that my question would never be answered then, one day I got an email from a distant relative saying she had some pictures of the Rieman family. Our question was finally answered. He got them from his Great-great grandfather Clarence Rieman. 

Then here are the other photos that Jill sent me.

Dancing

Today while I was making dinner I had my headphones on. Liam was sitting his his high chair and feeling very left out so I took him out and danced with him. I often dance with the boys when they come to see me while making dinner or washing the dishes. This time thought came to me that I only have a few more years that the boys will even want to dance with Mom in the Kitchen. I am feeling that time is flying by a little too quickly these days, what with my 9 going on 19 son and the baby growing so fast. I was just thinking I need to write down a few of those little things more often. 

Like last night (I think it was last night) While laying on our bed. I think I burped and said "excuse me I burped" we must have sat on the bed for the next 20 minutes playing and saying "Excuse me I burped" Shane thought it was the funniest thing to say.  

Today it was "What's wrong with pink? Slap it on down." (Pixar Short Boundin)

A Happy Easter


We had a very happy Easter considering we were all sick. We had some great plans that we had to cancel due to the fact that we are all coughing and have runny noses. Instead of going to a friends house we stayed home. We had one big easter basket for the family ( I rather liked this and will probably continue it in later years) and a very small easter egg hunt. After we died eggs of  course. It was a very small thing but I think the boys enjoyed it, and we were able to more fully focus on the Savior and the resurrection. I made crepes for breakfast and as we all sat down we talked a little about what the Lord has given to us and about the real reason for this great holiday. I think the older two kind of got it. 



Shane is almost 3 and in the height of his Two-ness, How much more needs to be said? 






My sweet Jared. I think he thinks he is all grown up now, I suppose he would be right. He is thinking he wants to start Karate in the summer, it would be a great idea for him we think. 


Dallin is Dallin, I don't know what to say, he is 6 and loves to get into everything so he can sweetly say "Here Mom I made this for you, don't you love it?"  He is very artistic. 

Thats all for now. We love you all! Hope your Holiday was at least as exciting as ours.
