Easter 2012

Easter this year was celebrated over 2 days for our family. Tyler, Danielle and their boys had been staying at my house the 2 days prior to Easter so we decided to do the sand dunes on Saturday so they wouldn't have to make a separate trip back to Fillmore.

The events started with the annual Fillmore City Easter Egg Hunt


Rylee, Kaden, Halle, Jesse and Broox

Then on Sunday after church, the kids got to open their Easter gifts from Grandma and Grandpa and Aunt Alisca

Rylee likes getting new clothes

The last Easter "celebration" was an Easter egg hunt in my parent's yard

Helping

Rylee likes to "help" make dinner, wash the dishes, etc. She thinks shes really doing something when the water is on in the sink and she's splashing around in it.





Christmas 2011

I'll let the pictures do the talking. Rylee LOVED her new couch - Halle has a hard time with all the attention and Jesse was just happy to have somewhere to build his legos.







Temple Square Lights

Back in December (yes, I realize how far behind I am), my family came up to go to Temple Square and do some Christmas shopping. The kids loved seeing the lights at the temple even if it was really cold outside. Rylee was in awe of everything she saw.

Lots of catching up to do

Now that the Olympics are over and things have slowed down for a couple of weeks in my life, my goal is to post at least one "event" on here every day (or every other day) until I am caught up on this blog. It's so easy to get behind on here and my mission is to get you up-to-date on the happenings in the family. Now I have to go dig up my pictures from the past 9 months or so :) Wish me luck!
