Madison's Birthday Party!!

Ah finally here are the pictures from the party! It was so exhausting and so much fun at the same time!! Madison said it was the "best party ever!" We didn't get to do it at the park because the wind was blowing so bad out here. So we decorated the garage in pink and I got some ceramic pots for the kids to paint. It was a fun activity that all the kids seemed to enjoy. We then ate hotdogs and cupcakes, planted the flowers, and opened presents. Let me tell you it was like Christmas in April. There were so many gifts for her, and it was so crazy with all the kids trying to help open them. Plus my camera was being way cranky and she was going way too fast!! LOL That morning we took her swimming at the Rec. center in Lehi. It has a small playground in the water for the kids to play on. Both kids had so much fun. We had such a great day!!!

So other than the party we have been battling another round of allergy/head colds! We've been on and off sick for two weeks and were finally starting to feel better when Madison caught some bug last night and threw up all night. Poor girl I felt so bad for her. We were up about every hour/hour and a half. It was the first real bad 'throwing up' that we've been through. But she handled it so good. I kept telling her sorry that she doesn't feel good and she kept saying "I'm sorry too momma!" Broke my heart. But it was just a small bug (Thank God) and she was all better today. I'm hoping I did my best and kept it away from Austin. He is, by the way, growing way too fast!!! He's saying a few new words, purple, belly button, Grandma, and Brittany (our neighbor). He's sleeping a bit better at night and eats like a horse, already!! Such a big boy.

Ok there you have it! Sorry it took awhile to get it to ya, but life has been well sort of busy lately.

Just hanging out and painting!

This weekend we pretty much did nothing. It was so nice. We still are all fighting a cold which isn't fun. Austin has it pretty bad now, poor guy. I've been helping a friend of mine paint her kitchen prubl

Enjoying the Weather!

Perfect!

He thought it was cool to stick his fingers in the bubble "motor"

SO MANY BUBBLES from there lawn mowers!!

Loves going down the slides!

Here are some pictures of our fantastic weekend! We had so much fun enjoying the warm weather. The kids had their first pinic outside which they loved! Then it was a trip to the park where Madison had fun with some kids there. Austin on the other hand was very happy to step up and down off the pinic patio. Silly boy the toys are over there :) We are loving the spring weather!! More pictures to come soon.

Good Quote

Found this quote on the Somewhat Simple blog and she framed it with a picture of her children's feet. So I want to put it here and think up something fantastic to do with it.

Easter Pics!

So I've been so busy running here and there, that I haven't posted Easter Pictures on here. I think everyone got them at Walmart but I'll check next. Easter was very exciting this year. We dyed Easter eggs with our neighbors Friday and had a Easter egg hunt with them Sunday afternoon. It was so much fun to watch them really get into Easter. This weekend we finished the fence and just absolutely love it!! The dog loves it, the kids love it, and I love what we are going to be able to do with our own private backyard this summer! Garrett worked so hard on it and did a wonderful job. I was able to go to Elko Friday night and Saturday to spend some time scrapbooking with my sister Tabitha. Friday (after the longest trip ever to get there, silly car!) my sister and I visited with my dad and brother. We then went and saw "The Last Song". I loved the book, but wasn't a big fan of the movie, mostly because I'm not a Miley Cirus fan and she kinda ruined it for me. Then Saturday I did some scrapbooking with Tabitha and was able to do 8 layouts. It was really fun and all her scrappin friends are awesome! Thanks for the invite, I had so much fun. And then it was another long trip home, but I made it before the kids went to sleep. I missed all three of them so much! It was the longest I've been away from the kids and it was really tough to leave them. Anyways so thats what has been going on. This week I'm hoping to do nothing but go grocery shopping. Lots of movie watching and cuddling on the couch!
