Guitar Hero Battle

Andrew Bell came home for spring break for a few days. Heather and him have been talking about a guitar hero battle for a while so it finally happened...exciting times here at the Romriells...yes we do know how to party. It was hilarious as Andrew definitly gave a Heather a run for her money (not really..hehe :)...Heather is always up for a battle with anyone who dares take the risk...She is pretty dang good and fun to watch if anyone is interested!! She can play most songs on expert in the hyper speed mode...ya crazy!!!!

Flying kites

Cobey came over Wednesday to hang out. It wasn't the greatest day out...it was rather cold and plenty windy. They decided to go out and fly kites. They did a really good job considering out gusty it was...they had a lot of fun anyway :)

Welcome home!!!

Amber went to the Oregon Coast during spring break so we all missed her very much...every once in awhile Corey would ask where she was cause he hadn't seen her for so long. She came home Wednesday evening and we were all excited to see her!!!

Riding Hard!!!!

Yesterday we had a blast riding 4-wheelers, Gators and motorcyles. Richards boy were over for the weekend so that made more fun with all the more riders. Jeremy Bell, our best neighbor, was a great 4-wheeler driver. We rode around for probably 3-4 hrs. Corey was having the time of his life and so was Craig. Clint....well this is what he was born to do :)

After the ride we started a fire and had hotdogs and marshmellow and had a great time. The boys were covered in dirt and so ready for baths....well mom was ready for them to be clean...I don't think they really cared. It was such a fun day. We are lucky to have such a great place to ride and be carefree...we love this place we have!!!!

Corey's Talk

Craig was supposed to give a talk on Sunday but he was out of town with the Christoffersons (which he had a blast by the way). Corey filled in for him though and was very thrilled to do so. I wasn't sure how he would do but I thought he would say something. He went up to the podium just fine all grown up and stood there. He wouldn't say anything that I wispered to him....instead he wanted to just make a noise with his mouth on the microphone. The other kids laughed and so he did it more. We made it through his talk but not by him saying one word. He did not mind being up there one bit though. He is not shy at all like Craig - I'm not sure if that is good or not....so totally different that is for sure.













He is doing so much better in primary!!! Thank goodness. He hated being in primary during January and February. These last few weeks he has finally been going like a trooper - thank you Lesa Folwell.....Cammi Folwell......Kendall Rupp......Jenny Mattravers.......Kali McRae....and oh my goodness I think when they see us come into church on Sunday they just sigh.....Oh my I am so sorry he is such a rebel!!!! Ya just got to love him!!!!

Cleany Frenzy

Ok, the kids had no school today so we (well actually I) decided that we would clean clean, dejunk, and clean some more. It was going great!! Heather and I tackled her bedroom...if any of you know Heather then you know what I am saying...it was going great and we were getting close to done. We suddenly realized how quiet it was and that is not good when you have a three year old in the house. Heather went to check on him and could not find him anywhere. He has been known to go out and talk a walk.....which out here could be ANYWHERE. After making sure he wasn't in the house we frantically started outside-she took off on the 4-wheeler while I called Grandma to see if she had seen him. I decided to come in the house one more time. I was really quiet and then I could hear something moving.....yes that little stink....he was hiding. I found him in the laundry basket, just grinning away....I guess we needed a break in cleaning and boy howdy did we get it!!! The worst part is Heather said she checked in the laundry basket...he was completely covered...what a boy! :)
