Bear Lake with cousins!!!!

This is the view from the second level of this amazing home looking down into the kids room that had basketball court, miniature golf, park and trampoline. Can we say incredible?!

The house had so many slides! All the levels had slides going down inside the house and the outside was stocked as well. The kids loved this place!

We spent two days playing at the beach and having a blast. We even had the courage to try the hotsprings ;)

The kiddo's had so much fun together. We had zero drama. They love their cousins!!!

And I love my cousins! We spent the evenings playing games, eating yummy food and laughing our heads off. I didn't want it to end~

Jack and The Bean Stalk- Boulder dinner theater

We went to see Jack and the Bean Stalk with Ellen and Don on Saturday and our seats were so good that they picked Cozy out of the audience and made her part of the show. It was lots of fun and such a cute and witty show! Cozy did a great job as well :)

EASTER

I love Easter! The flowers bloom and the sun shines and there is hope in the air for better times ahead. We are blessed to celebrate the resurrection of the Savior and the immense amount of love he has for each of us. As well as enjoy what I consider the best holiday candy ever... Cadbury's mini eggs! And... its nice enough weather to take some fun pictures of my beautiful children. Doesn't get much better than that!

They like to pick their own poses and I have to say they have the gift! lol What cute girls~


I came home Saturday night to a fun Easter surprise from Chris and the kids. Got to admit my heart melted when I saw it.

The hunt begins! We are still finding jelly beans a week later :) I think I hide candy like my dad did. lol










I think this is my favorite picture because of the innocence in their the little faces. They are the joy in my life no doubt about it!

And last but not least my little Easter bunny just got out the bath. Dang, he is scrummy...

Elias' Birthday

I feel bad because my easy going Elias got the bad end of the stick when it comes to birthday photo's. Chris was in Hong Kong with my uber nice camera (and didn't really take any great pics) and Cozy took my small compact purse camera to Hawaii so I don't have much of Elias's big day. It was fun though! He had his best friend Jonah over and we went to 'Jump Street' -a huge trampoline warehouse. I so wish I had a camera with me for that. They were so fun to watch. I tell ya I would have joined in if I didn't have a baby in my arms. :) We came home after and had pizza and banana splits. Elias got a train set from his Grandparents in England and some art supplies from his Grandparents in Utah and some Legos from Ellen and Don. All of which he has spent hours playing with and enjoying to the max! What a lucky kid! And what a lucky...or shall I say BLESSED mommy I am to have such a great son. I call him sunshine sometimes and its because that is what he is to me in my life. A ray of son shine!
