Both of my girls now fully understand what it is to hunt for eggs although my four year old was much more excited for this as she ran all over the backyard at grandma and grandpa's house to find and grab eggs while my six year old was in one little section taking her time walking around to see what she could find. Oh how different these two kiddos are from one another. They did both enjoy that they were able to wear nice Easter dresses to church though. Favorite thing about Easter is learning more about our Heavenly Father and getting to spend time with family while eating yummy food!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

She had her first birthday party with friends at Jungle Jim's. It was a lot of fun. We also were able to go to Bear lake with the Kinikini's and stay at a cabin. It was awesome and the lake was beautiful. It was a little cold but still fun. We saw a group of six deer one morning which was very cool. The girls had so much fun having the long sleepover with cousins and Paul and I enjoyed getting a break from work. All in all it was a great way to end March and start off the month of April. It was made better by getting to listen to conference. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This month we also were able to listen to and see Lily's first presentation at school. She choose Tigers and did a wonderful job.She even typed up most of the information herself, even though she did not enjoy that part too much. She had fun with her posterboard. She also brought her stuffed Tigers as part of the presentation. I love this girl so much and am so proud of her. As we are winding up the month of April we get to my celebrate my birthday as a family in Park City. I am excited and will post more later!

Put a crayon in the dryer with a load of laundry and the clothes came out with splotches of pink on them. Next day got a hold of my lip gloss and decorated her whole face and hair with it. Then two days later took a pair of scissors and cut her hair. It is amazing all a three year old can do in a short span of time! here is a picture of her with her real haircut that we went and got after. The long part of her hair covers the fact that underneath it is really short! So just won't have all of her up for hairdo's for awhile!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9sBvRcjhKyo/TuD8HdO_VPI/AAAAAAAAAoo/foh2t6jvniQ/s1600/DSC09837.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9sBvRcjhKyo/TuD8HdO_VPI/AAAAAAAAAoo/foh2t6jvniQ/s320/DSC09837.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5683819934778348786" border="0" /></a>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-9984380472065125862011-10-31T21:44:00.007-06:002011-10-31T22:46:50.835-06:00Pumpkin Patch.....!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OtnX2CEsrGk/Tq90Kp2rUcI/AAAAAAAAAn4/4bctb17jRVg/s1600/DSCF0097.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OtnX2CEsrGk/Tq90Kp2rUcI/AAAAAAAAAn4/4bctb17jRVg/s320/DSCF0097.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669878182265442754" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cZ2leWASatI/Tq90JpaCRKI/AAAAAAAAAns/2_169_cR6u0/s1600/DSCF0095.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cZ2leWASatI/Tq90JpaCRKI/AAAAAAAAAns/2_169_cR6u0/s320/DSCF0095.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669878164965442722" border="0" /></a><br /><br />So we took the girls to Wheeler farm this year to pick out pumpkins. Although they also got to enjoy a wagon /hay ride and a maze. It was alot of fun and they spent quite a bit of time in the maze. Grandma and Grandpa got in on the fun of the maze and wagon ride as well as our friend Miki. I believe her Miki's favorite was playing in the maze. Brooklyn really enjoyed getting to pick a pumpkin and probably picked up at least eight different ones before deciding. Lily pretty much settled on her pumpkin about two or three ones in. I have to say my favorite was the wagon ride and getting to see the lights they put out around the farm. Both girls really loved the wagon ride. It was as good and fun night out I think we will return to Wheeler farm next October.<br /><br />The girls and their pumpkins!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Hj3j8pHpHIQ/Tq9ve_mAP0I/AAAAAAAAAl0/W0VCtJaTf58/s1600/DSCF0061.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;

We were driving in the car the day after the costume try on and Brooklyn says to us "I am not in the family anymore." So we ask her why? and she responds " Because I am a mermaid now!" Very funny and she was serious so she got mad when Paul and I started laughing.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nOjRqR8bU78/Tq9qW9aGaUI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/trhPr-lSXeg/s1600/DSCF0054.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nOjRqR8bU78/Tq9qW9aGaUI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/trhPr-lSXeg/s400/DSCF0054.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669867398556444994" border="0" /></a>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-35988262378965122072011-09-07T22:39:00.004-06:002011-09-07T23:01:27.614-06:00SUMMER!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rocOlRFsWl8/TmhLqCKMpmI/AAAAAAAAAko/AY1OwB5NgQE/s1600/IMG_8384.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rocOlRFsWl8/TmhLqCKMpmI/AAAAAAAAAko/AY1OwB5NgQE/s200/IMG_8384.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649848918042519138" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UdXzuxLsPPg/TmhLqU2sBuI/AAAAAAAAAkw/X1dQZxH25Dg/s1600/IMG_8401.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UdXzuxLsPPg/TmhLqU2sBuI/AAAAAAAAAkw/X1dQZxH25Dg/s200/IMG_8401.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649848923060963042" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-e4U3JepC41A/TmhLD5kE0ZI/AAAAAAAAAkA/oHzzY3oV89g/s1600/IMG_8330.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-e4U3JepC41A/TmhLD5kE0ZI/AAAAAAAAAkA/oHzzY3oV89g/s200/IMG_8330.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649848262900109714" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sGGWLdI_K4E/TmhLDrWfv-I/AAAAAAAAAj4/qPh8Wg6Eo3s/s1600/IMG_8314.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sGGWLdI_K4E/TmhLDrWfv-I/AAAAAAAAAj4/qPh8Wg6Eo3s/s200/IMG_8314.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649848259085058018" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Tw5699oFJb4/TmhLCu_WwKI/AAAAAAAAAjw/tGkAJc1HfGo/s1600/IMG_8311.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Tw5699oFJb4/TmhLCu_WwKI/AAAAAAAAAjw/tGkAJc1HfGo/s200/IMG_8311.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649848242881872034" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RlX1uU62Jr8/TmhLCSFVlBI/AAAAAAAAAjo/jRzUcxAezno/s1600/IMG_8310.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RlX1uU62Jr8/TmhLCSFVlBI/AAAAAAAAAjo/jRzUcxAezno/s200/IMG_8310.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649848235122332690" /></a><br /><br />So summer was pretty busy with activities, fun and for me work.

So this was Lily's first official dance recital with her new dance company. She was so excited although she did not like getting her hair pinned up and back nor the hairspray to keep all of her hair down. She did love getting to wear makeup though! In the end she looked beautiful and very grown up. She did good job in her performance especially since she was the youngest in the class by almost about a year.Lily we are so proud of you! We look forward to seeing you dance more in the future!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0BOnyk5CbsE/TmhGoN_w67I/AAAAAAAAAjg/gkjPlgV8FJU/s1600/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B081.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0BOnyk5CbsE/TmhGoN_w67I/AAAAAAAAAjg/gkjPlgV8FJU/s400/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B081.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649843389302107058" /></a>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-49903509205329526782011-09-07T21:49:00.003-06:002011-09-07T22:15:08.374-06:00Texas Visit<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BFiizt7XM9w/TmhAYvJi0nI/AAAAAAAAAio/i_udlvLxVVc/s1600/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B015.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BFiizt7XM9w/TmhAYvJi0nI/AAAAAAAAAio/i_udlvLxVVc/s320/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B015.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649836526253822578" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9PFxaYN6gZQ/TmhAYY3bdnI/AAAAAAAAAig/P2TqtJ_xZP8/s1600/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B003.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9PFxaYN6gZQ/TmhAYY3bdnI/AAAAAAAAAig/P2TqtJ_xZP8/s320/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B003.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649836520272262770" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vJb7WHq2r9Q/TmhAXza6hTI/AAAAAAAAAiY/Gk8comUFylA/s1600/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B001.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vJb7WHq2r9Q/TmhAXza6hTI/AAAAAAAAAiY/Gk8comUFylA/s320/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B001.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649836510220551474" /></a><br /><br />So I got to go home to Texas again this year but this time I was meeting a new niece named Eden. She was so cute!! My girls and I loved to hold her and play with her. Lily especially loved holding her and feeding her. This time around while visiting we just stayed in Houston. We were able to go to the children's museum downtown as well as the aquarium. We also went to Galveston and were able to go to our favorite ice cream place La King's the tastiest ice cream ever! It was the first Easter that my girls have not been in Utah but they still had fun as they got to have an egg hunt with other cousins although Brooklyn also found some fire ants which was not too fun thankfully she only got bit once! It was as always a fun and great trip. I was so glad to get the break form work and enjoy being with family!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mQPAvwStp_g/TmhAY7tns6I/AAAAAAAAAiw/9HQVlnyGqT4/s1600/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B035.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mQPAvwStp_g/TmhAY7tns6I/AAAAAAAAAiw/9HQVlnyGqT4/s320/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B035.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649836529626362786" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RBhKaPbAPrs/TmhAZKGuZmI/AAAAAAAAAi4/MHqa20zVrdE/s1600/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B068.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RBhKaPbAPrs/TmhAZKGuZmI/AAAAAAAAAi4/MHqa20zVrdE/s320/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B068.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649836533489755746" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pRru9xFT9ws/TmhBGJSJZsI/AAAAAAAAAjA/yTnO-k4hZF4/s1600/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B071.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pRru9xFT9ws/TmhBGJSJZsI/AAAAAAAAAjA/yTnO-k4hZF4/s320/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B071.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649837306363340482" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4zDRuiuwyhM/TmhBGjbgfTI/AAAAAAAAAjI/xSzAvlSxJ48/s1600/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B050.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4zDRuiuwyhM/TmhBGjbgfTI/AAAAAAAAAjI/xSzAvlSxJ48/s320/texas%2Band%2Bdance%2Brecital%2B2011%2B050.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649837313381924146" /></a>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-45037361996862704242011-03-02T22:06:00.004-07:002011-03-02T22:44:38.659-07:00Ah instacare!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_Ht25pEL2nA/TW8p-G8hBXI/AAAAAAAAAiM/z39hygzuwf8/s1600/232323232%25257Ffp%2B%253B3%2529nu%253D337%253B%25299%253B%253B%2529355%2529WSNRCG%253D344678%2528752335nu0mrj.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_Ht25pEL2nA/TW8p-G8hBXI/AAAAAAAAAiM/z39hygzuwf8/s400/232323232%25257Ffp%2B%253B3%2529nu%253D337%253B%25299%253B%253B%2529355%2529WSNRCG%253D344678%2528752335nu0mrj.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5579724610328397170" /></a><br /><br />So I had my first major incidence with Lily this past week. It was right after bath time and I was getting the girls ready for bed, we had turned some music on to dance and I turned back around and lily had decided to try to climb up the side of her bunk bed that did not have the ladder and lost her balance and fell backwards and hit her head on the bookshelf/toy shelf in their room and I quickly realized that she had cut open the back of her head so I got her upstairs and got pressure on the wound and asked my father in law to watch Brooklyn as Paul was at a meeting. That is that first time in my visits to instacare where I have not had to wait in the lobby. I walked in and they asked what had happened and once they heard she had hit her head they sent me straight back. She did not have a big cut/gash but it was deep so she had to get two staples! She liked the warming blankets they gave her ( she was going into shock and her body temp had fallen so the nurse gave her two warming blankets) She was really good though and was explaining to the nurse how she got her "injury" Paul met us over there with Brooklyn bearing a gift of a yo yo which Lily was happy to play with while waiting for her head to get numb enough for the staples to get put in! She got her staples out today a week later and is determined to not get another head injury as she refers to it! She did keep her staples so she can show her classmates as well as she wants me to do a scrapbook page for her!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VqCWkIba-lM/TW8p93nyXkI/AAAAAAAAAiE/v4VoiggB-CA/s1600/232323232%25257Ffp%2B%253B3%2529nu%253D337%253B%25299%253B%253B%2529355%2529WSNRCG%253D344678%252874%2B335nu0mrj.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VqCWkIba-lM/TW8p93nyXkI/AAAAAAAAAiE/v4VoiggB-CA/s400/232323232%25257Ffp%2B%253B3%2529nu%253D337%253B%25299%253B%253B%2529355%2529WSNRCG%253D344678%252874%2B335nu0mrj.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5579724606214921794" /></a>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-257168700555258022010-12-30T21:30:00.005-07:002010-12-30T22:00:40.469-07:00Disney land!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TR1hXHQ2joI/AAAAAAAAAhI/jp74VoErsbA/s1600/IMG_6635.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TR1hXHQ2joI/AAAAAAAAAhI/jp74VoErsbA/s320/IMG_6635.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5556704564959678082" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TR1fCQljWjI/AAAAAAAAAgY/KuIKDOcRoSs/s1600/IMG_6688.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TR1fCQljWjI/AAAAAAAAAgY/KuIKDOcRoSs/s320/IMG_6688.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5556702007661910578" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TR1fBd1gumI/AAAAAAAAAgA/lIhkRZDj9V8/s1600/IMG_6674.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TR1fBd1gumI/AAAAAAAAAgA/lIhkRZDj9V8/s320/IMG_6674.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5556701994038639202" border="0" /></a><br /><br />As one can tell I have not been on here as much as I would like! But I think this post is better late than never! So we surprised the girls in November with a trip to Disney land.

One of my favorite things we did was go to the county fair. the kids have never really been to a fair before and it's been awhile since i have been to one. It was so much fun and the kids really enjoyed petting the animals. They also got to watch a pig race which the pig they picked lost since it had a false start and didn't stop:) The kids also got to ride on the merry go round and a strawberry ride which they really enjoyed while Paul and I enjoyed a turn on the Ferris wheel! this was a really fun summer and I look froward to the fall!Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-23841952884988199662010-08-15T16:17:00.002-06:002010-08-15T16:38:36.149-06:00Donut fallsSo Paul and I have been trying to get the girls outside more so we have tried to take them a few hikes.

We have gone to wheeler farm, this is the place, the zoo a couple of times, numerous parks, a few play dates with friends, swimming a couple of times, and we have made it to a few baseball games as well. This would be why I don't have too many posts so far this summer but here are some pictures from the different things we have done! oh we have also gone camping a few times as well!<br /><br />So it was really fun at This is the place the girls got to dig for gold go on a train ride and they each got their first pony ride. Which Lily loved and Brooklyn liked until the pony started to move and she started to slide off the saddle so the worker got over there to straighten her up and she just grabbed hold of him and got herself off the horse! Karson went crazy and got put in a straight jacket! It was great day!!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-32.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=2017612633088094002&site=widget-32.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=2017612633088094002&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-32.slide.com/p1/2017612633088094002/bb_t046_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=2017612633088094002&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-32.slide.com/p2/2017612633088094002/bb_t046_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=2017612633088094002&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-32.slide.com/p4/2017612633088094002/bb_t046_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-75190853430181542162010-07-13T11:52:00.002-06:002010-07-13T11:56:10.977-06:00So what do you think?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TDyoh6WjkxI/AAAAAAAAAfk/z_EXQ0_sIxs/s1600/Family+005.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TDyoh6WjkxI/AAAAAAAAAfk/z_EXQ0_sIxs/s400/Family+005.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493450946038174482" border="0" /></a><br /><br />So for Cinco de Mayo this year Paul and a few of his friends decided to have a cinco de mustache contest this is the result of Paul's mustache. i didn't really like just the mustache so Paul didn't keep it for very long but what do you think?<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TDyof0aJRYI/AAAAAAAAAfc/dF3L4i-Z-4o/s1600/Family+003.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/TDyof0aJRYI/AAAAAAAAAfc/dF3L4i-Z-4o/s400/Family+003.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493450910082876802" border="0" /></a>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-5273115330612847292010-06-27T21:38:00.007-06:002010-06-27T22:13:38.746-06:00Wow Five!So I have a five year old now it's official.

Brooklyn loved both cakes that she got but like playing with her friends the most. She is in the terrible twos though most of the time she is till fine though her favorite thing to do right now is to copy and do anything her bib sis does which does not always work out very well. like last week when she was playing on the top bunk with lily and fell out because of trying to copy what lily had done. i am happy to say though that she is okay and did not break anything! One of her other favorite things to do is to hang out with papa aka grandpa. She loves the time she gets to spend with him especially now that they get to spend some of it outdoors! <br /><br /><br />Lily<br />Well what can i say Lily is still a goofball though she will tell you that you are! She is also loving school and has made a couple of friends though her best friend is Jake and she likes to play house with him and they have even held hands! She likes learning her letters but does not like practicing them at home :) Lily also loves to talk and she has a very creative imagination which she uses to make up and tell stories. She likes to draw aliens and she likes to try and tell her sister what to do. She is so fun though and she learns things even though we have questioned if she listens. Like the other day she was telling that she knew what temple she wanted to be married in so i asked her which one and she said Salt Lake temple because it is the prettiest. So then i asked her what it meant to be married in the temple and she said it means you always get to be with your family and that when you get married that boy joins your family forever. it was very cute and i am glad to hear that she enjoys church and is learning about principles at the same time! <br /><br />Paul<br />Has started back at school and is loving his English class he is taking. He is getting a little down time as his hours at work have lessened due to them being a little slow from the economic situation. Though i know he is antsy for warmer weather so he can go paint balling with some of his friends. He is also spending what time he can with Lily and Brooklyn as well as me. We even made to a temple session the other week. :) it was really nice.<br /><br />Me <br />I am still pretty busy at work as i have been doing pretty close to forty hours a week there. when i am not working i am trying to enjoy time with my family and when i get downtime i try to read a good book or watch a good movie or hang out with friends! Though i did forget to mention that Paul and i sold our condo we close on the thirtieth of this month and we have moved in with my very nice in laws. thanks by the way for the use of your basement! We plan to use this time to save and get a very badly needed second car as well as save to get a new place to live! It will be bonus to get out of some of our current debt or make it smaller! I am looking forward to my vacation in April when we are going to go visit my family in Texas!Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-25856147675098366792009-12-10T14:17:00.005-07:002009-12-18T15:58:52.565-07:00Brooklyn! :)<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/SywIy7sZjvI/AAAAAAAAAck/2Aln69qw1jo/s1600-h/family+legends+2009+159.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/SywIy7sZjvI/AAAAAAAAAck/2Aln69qw1jo/s400/family+legends+2009+159.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5416714122930261746" /></a><br />So Brooklyn has finally decided to talk more and it is so cute. She loves to say "bankie" for blankie, "mikey" for uncle Mike, "bapa" or "bamba" for grandpa. It is alot of fun she will also say please, thank you, done, down , eat, drink, and night night to name a few!! Brooklyn still loves to climb into and hide in the cupboards. She no longer likes to sit in a highchair or a booster seat she prefers to sit right up at the table like everyone else! :)She loves to carry around dolls and play with trains! She is very excited about all of the Christmas lights though when she saw Santa she was excited at first and ran over towards him and then when she got close she turned around and rant he other way. She also cried and reached out for her daddy when we tried to get her to sit on Santa's lap! her favorite food is probably yogurt and cheeseburgers.Her favorite treat is anything sweet just like her dad and her mom!! She also pretty much likes to do or have whatever her big sister lily has or is doing! In the end I think Brooklyn's favorite words are "no mine" She is fun and I am enjoying watching her and Lily grow up!!Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-33642971241031170942009-12-10T14:11:00.004-07:002009-12-18T16:10:35.525-07:00Festival of trees!So this year Paul, Lily, Brooklyn and my in laws all got to go to the festival of trees together. It was pretty packed which is a good thing since it raises money for a worthy charity the Primary Children's medical center. As always they had some amazing and beautiful trees. In the smaller trees lily loved the princess ones though Paul enjoyed a Christmas orange one and I really just enjoyed all of them. In the bigger tree category there were some amazing ones like an all star wars one and some very pretty red ones in favor of the Utes!! There were also some bear ones and john Deere ones and some Grinch ones, which Lily absolutely loved!It was a very enjoyable time and Brooklyn got so tuckered out that she fell asleep! I highly recommend that all of you who didn't get to check it out this year check it out next year!Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-6422156985224786622009-12-10T14:06:00.003-07:002009-12-18T15:49:51.494-07:00Thanksgiving!So this thanksgiving year was a mix of work and relaxation for me! I worked in the morning to early afternoon and then relaxed the rest of the day~! Thanksgiving was great and I am definitely grateful for many things:<br /> My supportive loving husband<br /> My adorable yet crazy kids<br /> My job that helps pay the bills<br /> My house even though its pretty messy right now<br /> My family and all of their support<br /> The gospel as it is my saving grace!!<br /> There are many other things I am grateful but these are the highlights! I am also grateful for all of the amazing cooking that the other women did on Thanksgiving day! Thank you so much it was very yummy!Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-80212962011472791942009-11-15T17:25:00.007-07:002009-11-15T18:56:51.259-07:00Halloween!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/SwCoxzklNwI/AAAAAAAAAcc/-bQGQZdp-6M/s1600/DSC07083.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/SwCoxzklNwI/AAAAAAAAAcc/-bQGQZdp-6M/s400/DSC07083.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404505126455293698" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/SwCkbQgPh3I/AAAAAAAAAcM/4kUiei4jURw/s1600/IMG_4728.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/SwCkbQgPh3I/AAAAAAAAAcM/4kUiei4jURw/s400/IMG_4728.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404500341038221170" /></a><br /><br />This year my kids got their costumes from my mom. Lily got a pretty blue velvet dress to be a princess and Brooklyn got a lady bug outfit and a ballerina costume which she got to wear both. Lily wore her dress many times as she thought is was beautiful and Brooklyn even got to wear both as they went to a party at my work and she wore the ballerina one and Halloween night due to colder weather she wore the lady bug one. I am biased though because I think she looked really cute in both of them. Lily was ecstatic this year as she got a Halloween party at school, the one at my work and the real Halloween. She loved trick or treating especially since she got to go with her cousins Kelsie, Kaden, Mckenna , and Kyler. Brooklyn was just excited once she realized it was candy that she was getting in her bag and then she proceeded to eat some as she was finishing her trick or treating.! It was a very nice Halloween and I am glad that my girls enjoyed it!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/SwCka2hIC_I/AAAAAAAAAcE/esNu65iLYpQ/s1600/IMG_4718.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/SwCka2hIC_I/AAAAAAAAAcE/esNu65iLYpQ/s400/IMG_4718.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404500334062603250" /></a>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-24841979369261800932009-10-04T17:54:00.003-06:002009-10-04T18:08:06.063-06:00In memory...<div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/Ssk4YwlDiRI/AAAAAAAAAbk/s_NJ01bKj14/s1600-h/0000501548-01-1_191139%5B1%5D.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 120px; HEIGHT: 189px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388900427133847826" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/Ssk4YwlDiRI/AAAAAAAAAbk/s_NJ01bKj14/s400/0000501548-01-1_191139%5B1%5D.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div>Of a great man Robert Douglas <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Teran</span>. who left this world on September 26<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">th</span>, 2009. He will be missed by many but will live on in our hearts and memories. i only got about six and half years as his granddaughter in law but they were very good years and he treated me as if I had always been in his family not just married into it! My favorite memories of grandpa were our visits down to st. George. The one that sticks with me the most is the first one we made after Brooklyn was born. it was so much fun and we were just able to relax and visit and grandpa was just so cute with the girls! We love you grandpa and we know that you are causing laughing riots up in heaven!</div></div><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/Ssk4ZRE7uoI/AAAAAAAAAbs/SuPcCtzUfDE/s1600-h/0000501548-01-2_191139%5B1%5D.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 120px; HEIGHT: 189px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388900435857488514" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_51qmDxOrFok/Ssk4ZRE7uoI/AAAAAAAAAbs/SuPcCtzUfDE/s400/0000501548-01-2_191139%5B1%5D.jpg" /></a>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-1217491992578936502009-10-04T17:18:00.004-06:002009-10-04T17:27:24.025-06:00Seattle!!So this was my second time in Washington but it was my first time to see Seattle!! I really enjoyed it there is alot of things to see there and to do Paul and i only got to a fraction of it! We saw the Space needle though this time did not go up it! we also saw Pikes market and we went to the children's museum which was Lily's favorite part I think besides the Aquarium!Which by the way is pretty cool as they have sea otters and seals! Paul and I enjoyed it so much that we have already talked about going back in a year or two and doing a week just in Seattle!Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551201318049553778.post-89125511637845122372009-09-19T00:20:00.003-06:002009-10-04T17:27:08.398-06:00Leavenworth Germany, no wait Washington!So Leavenworth is this quaint little town in Washington that is modeled after Germany/Austria. it is about two and a half hours from where my sister lives. So one day Paul and i drove up there with the girls so we could experience this little town. It is a pretty drive up there and the views in the town are amazing!!The girls enjoyed walking around the town and going into the little shops they had. one of their favorite shops was this little hat shop that we went into. the girls loved trying on different hats, glasses, and masks. This is one of the ones that Lily found that when she walked around to show her dad and me we just started cracking up laughing. it was a lot of fun. We also got to see an organ grinder with his little stuffed monkey. He was dressed authentically and this little organ was authentic and very cool. Lily and Brooklyn were dancing to the music! It was a fun and nice day though all of us were definitely exhausted by the time we made it back. Here are some pictures as well as video!Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16872534881480184633noreply@blogger.com0
