May Happenings

 I got these yummy beauties from my father-in-law for Mother's Day.

 I think she fell asleep praying...

 Shiloh caught a nasty stomach bug and was sick for two weeks!

 Yummy goodness from my friend, Emily

On Memorial Day we went to the cemetery where Jeff's Grandpa and Great Grandparents are buried.

Jeff has been telling me about the Discovery Park in the Valley for awhile now. He has had several people at work tell him how cool it is, so we finally made it out there. The kids had a ton of fun.

Mason's Spring Orchestra Concert

Mason had his Spring Orchestra concert last night. I am so proud of what he has accomplished this year in Orchestra. He loves learning the cello and is happy to share his talent with everyone.

 Mason won this award for perfect attendance for the entire year. But really, I won it for getting him there the entire year. Don't you think?

April Happenings

 Look at this happy girl. Her hair is long enough to braid!

 Yup, hail on April fools day.

 And snow on the first day of spring break, April 6th

 The last day of spring break (Friday the 10th) we took the kids to Jump Sky High. It was the first time being there for all of us, except Mason.

On Saturday the 11th Mason and I went out to dinner together to celebrate taking first and second in our family's NCAA bracket. I won't tell you who took first place, but it was NOT this cutie in the picture.

 Caught this little girl sleeping with her kitty stuffed in her shirt like she is pregnant with her kitty.

 Selfie time

Easter

A few days before Easter, a friend in our ward (congregation) organized an Easter egg hunt in our local park. We had a ton of kids there and even a ton more eggs. All the kids had a great time and went away very happy with their loot.

Then Easter morning each of the kids got a few things in their baskets and there were eggs hidden around the house and in the backyard.

We were able to have Jeff's parents over for dinner that night. I am very thankful for everything they do for us! I am even more thankful for my Savior, for his atoning sacrifice for me, so I can be resurrected and live with him and my Father again!

Family Pinewood Derby!

 Jeff and his Elders Quorum presidency put on a family pinewood derby activity last night. Mason raced his two cars from cub scouts and we made the fire truck for this race. Although we didn't win, we still had a ton of fun.
