The big Easter Surprise

Ok so many of you know I am like anti-pets. I really just don't like animals. I really never wanted my kids to have any pets but my husband and dad had other intentions. They talked me into letting the Easter Bunny bring the kids real rabbits. I said under one condition. You build a nice looking cage and you (Jaman) gets to take care of them. So the Easter Bunny went to work building a cage and finding rabbits. Taylor was SO EXCITED. I have never ever seen her so happy. She loves animals....unlike her mom. The Easter bunny had left a note with the baskets to go out to Grandpa's barn to find and easter surprise that was too big for their baskets. She quickly claimed the white one and named her Snowball.

Bridger was actually really excited her. I recorded it all on my camera so I didn't get a lot of pictures to show their real excitement. Bridger with the help of Grandpa named his bunny Muffin. He loves to pet them.

For record that we did have some pets here they are....Snowball and muffin. Now my dad thinks he is going to talk me into getting them a dog. We will see!!

More Easter

It only took Bridger a little while and he caught right on. He would get so excited at every egg. He found one of the prize eggs with money in it.

Ya I know what a lovely face I was making. I look hidious and well Taylor isn't even looking. That is the best we could get the kids to do.

Taylor and her Easter basket from the Easter bunny. She was excited but was disappointed she didn't get a real bunny.

Bridger was just really excited for the candy. He didn't really care about any of the other stuff.

Easter Fun!

Coloring Easter eggs at Grandpa and Grandma's house.

Getting all bundled up to go on a Easter egg hunt. We had snow in April to it wasn't the nicest of weather but that didn't stop the kids they were all excited and ready.

Coloring Easter Eggs!

We had this Easter egg coloring kit sitting in our cupboard. I knew the kids were going to be coloring eggs at my parents house but we decided to color some of our own. Taylor really enjoyed it. Bridger on the other hand just wanted to make a mess. So it didn't last long with him. He did enjoy eating the eggs though.

A girl sleepover!

The same night Jaman and I were in Salt Lake my mom had been waiting to have the girl sleepover with all the girl cousins. Taylor was SO excited. They had a strawberry shortcake party. My mom played with them and even had a modeling show. I wish I had the picture of all them in their dresses. She made them strawberry pancakes in the morning. Taylor loved being with her girl cousins. I love that my mom does this with the grandkids. It is memories that Taylor will treasure forever.

6 Happy Years!

Also in March falls our anniversary. My parents so graciously took the kids for the weekend. Jaman and I headed to Salt Lake for the weekend. We stayed downtown in the Hilton. We ate wonderful food and had such a wonderful time. We had never been and did a session at the Salt Lake Temple so we wanted to do that. We always go to the temple on our anniversary. I love to do this. It is such a great day to be in the celestial room together and remember the blessing of eternity. The temple was AMAZING! It was so beautiful inside. It was such a wonderful weekend of just us. It is nice to get a moment away from the kids and remember every reason why we fell in love. I am so thankful for a wonderful husband who was worthy to take me to the temple so we can be together forever. I look forward to eternity.

A whole year older and wiser too!

I usually am never in pictures on here. I am usually the one taking them so for a change so my kids remember that I did exist I thought I would post one. This was on my birthday. I had a wonderful birthday! Jaman and the kids always make it such a great day. My inlaws surpirsed me and showed up and took the kids so Jaman and I could enjoy a night out to dinner. We chose one of my favorites..Texas Roadhouse. When I came back Brynn (my sister in law) and Mother in law had dug into my cupboards and made me a cake. So we had some cake and ice cream. Taylor was so excited to show me the cake. And after I blew my candles she was quick to ask what I had wished for. I have everything I could ever wish for so there wasn't much wishing.
