Trey's Fairwell

I was able to go up to Utah for my super cute nephews mission farewell. And lets not lie some much needed sister time. This is my darling nephew Jeffy. He and I playing a mean game of Hot Hoops. He totally kicked my butt.
Here's how he looked every time it was my turn because it took me forever to make a basket.
Here's my super cute nephew Trey.

Can you guess where he's going?
All of us playing a super fun new game Anita taught us. Signs.

You think it can't possibly be that fun but it is!!

We sat here for 3 hours playing.

My crazy sister Natalie had this brilliant idea since 7 of the 9 siblings where there we should all go take a few pictures of us all on the tramp. It got a little out of hand. Not surprisingly though. Here we are playing crack the egg with Melanie. She didn't last long.


All my amazing Sisters. Love you girlie's!!
And here's my sisters house the morning we where heading to the airport. I didn't think I was going to make my flight traffic was horrible. Funny how Utah weather is. Friday when I got there we went to the zoo and it was a bit warm by Monday is was snowing.

Spring Break

We had a very relaxing spring break. The weather was amazing so we spent lots of time outside and at the park and playing with friends. We did manage to get out to Peter Piper Pizza one day for lunch. And go to the movies with friends. We also helped a friend move which my kids loved because she was on horse property with horses all around. The kids loved it. The only down fall was they could craw through the bars so Riley kept a good eye on the little ones for us.


Since it was Justin's spring break as well he was able to get the pavers put in the backyard. Oh..happy day. My brother Scott was nice enough to come lend a helping hand! Thanks Scotty!! Your the best!


Kai had a birthday shout hooray!!

Kai turned 4 on the 25th of March. We have never really had a party for him so this was his big year. Except....all he wanted was presents and cake. I tried and tried to talk him it to all sorts of fun things but he just wasn't having it. So on his birthday he opened a few gifts from us. Then on Saturday he had his friends over for the lamest party ever. They played on the trampoline with light sabers ate pizza and cupcakes and opened presents. Now that's Kai's kind of party not to much attention on him and not to much going on.



Grandma Trixie made him a super sweet Jedi costume.


4 big reasons I love my Kai-ownee

*he always tells me he loves me and gives me hugs.

*he's so tiny and fun to carry around (although he doesn't let me very often)

*i love that he keeps all his star wars guys in his Diego back pack and knows where it is at all times.

*i love that he gets so excited over the simple things in life.

I love you little man!

Riley Birthdays

Riley turned 8 on the 6th of March. We had lots of fun having a family party for her this year. They usually get their friend party's on even number birthday's except some how last year she had a pretty big party so this year she had to settle for just the fam. We let her pick where she wanted to go out to dinner to. She's smart and says well where's a nice place that you and daddy like to go. So...we went to Ah-So. All the kids were very entertained but I think Justin's brother was the most entertained. I had more fun watching him than the cook. Anyways, we had Justin's mom and brother join us along with my parents. Here's a few pictures from the night.


8 reason's why I love Riley soo much!!
*she is such a good helper.
*she loves her brothers.
*she gets really embarrassed easily.
*she likes to be in the room when your talking about her but pretends like she's not listening.
*she is so amazing at comprehending books and movies. she always picks up on the little details that I don't even pick up on.
*she loves to camp and shoot guns.
*she loves to sing and dance. and is good at it.
