Easter

2 Replies

On Easter Sunday I fell in LOVE with the children’s outfits. And the sky was all cloudy and perfect. AND my parents were here with their nice Cannon Rebel. So I got myself some new family photos.

We drove ALL over Cedar and hit up tree different spots. Picking photos out of the bunch was WAY easy this year. I am SO excited!

I ordered the prints today and they will arrive just in time for Mother’s Day (It’s my annual gift from Jon and the children). YEA!

So here are the pictures that will be hanging in all their 11×14 glory in my living room.

Kaylee wanted the playground BAD! It was hard to hold on to her (little stinker!), but her wiggling was also making her and Regan laugh sooo……..

But then she gave me this beauty so all was forgiven. Then she ran off to play while we got some photos of Regan. We called it quits for the day when she started screaming from splitting her lip open (lots of blood).


We got some of Regan in the same tree (as above), but I just love his smile at our rock location, so this is the one I picked of him. Oh, I finally got him some suspenders. He wears them ALL. The. TIME. Going to get him more (gotta keep his pants up somehow)!

And all our sweet Mom’s/Grandma’s, don’t worry I ordered your copies as well. It is after all a Mother’s Day tradition now right? RIGHT.

from 2 weekends ago. AKA: Sam’s party weekend.

Good food. Our favorite: Rice and Beans. SO SO GOOD! Kaylee out ate me!

Lots of fun games. Family, and friends. I feel older when my younger siblings have birthdays…….

Regan laughs so hard when his Babushka is around him. LOVE IT.

She was pulling funny poses for her Papa.

Much to everyone’s surprise, Kaylee “helped” Sam blow out the candles.

She was quite pleased with herself.

This isn’t normal Regan behavior. I can count on one had how many times he has done this with me. Ya. I was jealous that he chose to pass out on his Babushka………. (He looks huge here. He’s really not though.)

We decided to check out the new airport. We even saw a life flight plane land. It made us all think of Mom H. (She was one of those rockin life flight nurses in her pre mission life.)

Tomorrow our Cassie Joan is turning 9!!! Dude! I remember holding her new little self in the hospital. Has it already been a year since we were at her baptism?!

K. Never mind sibling birthdays. Cassie and Jadzia Birthdays really make a girl feel older. Dearest cousins of mine, please stop growing up. Thanks so much. 😉

Cassie I promise to keep Kaylee AWAY from your candles!

Traaaadition! TRAAAADITION! (Fiddler in your head now?) This is how we do it.

Christmas Eve dinner at the Jamie & Linda Kreyling Home. We eat Navajo Tacos, Scones with Honey butter, and lots of pie and cookies. Games, Caroling, Stories (“Teach the Children”), & FUN!

Sitting with our stockings Christmas morning before heading over to Jamie & Linda’s for our traditional Eggs, Scones and yet more Honey Butter! We NEVER wake up with enough time to open presents before we are due to go eat the delish. So we dig into our stocking then load into cars. We eat breakfast, play a few games, and THEN we head back home to open gifts. Sam HATES this. She would like us up at 5 am to open gifts “like normal families do”. But we are SO not normal!

Kaylee loves going to Jamie & Linda’s. She always has SO MUCH FUN! Jadzia & Cassie spoil her. And she LOVES to play the piano and they have one. So she is pretty much in heaven there.

Kaylee was very pleased with her new apron (Mama made), and her new Barbie princess movie. Speaking of Barbies. She got several (with tons of clothes) hand me down barbies from Aunt Linda. She LOVES her princess’! She even shared the Aladin boy one with Regan. She got quite a lot of goodies this year. And it was the first year she really got into unwrapping everything by herself.

Dinner with ALL the Kreyling’s Christmas day. This was 1 of 4 FULL tables. It was awesome how much family was able to come. We eat at the Manderin Buffet. You know ’cause it’s open, and there is NO cooking/cleaning required of us. SWEET! Jon still thinks it’s just plain wrong to have Chinese for Christmas Dinner. He is happy that next year Christmas falls on a Sunday. Which means we will not be going out to eat. Sabbath Day and all. He wants a ham. No egg rolls please. (although he happily ate lots at the buffet)

And of course my baby browns! He ate peas, and stole multiple forks (see above photo for evidence). Peas were the only thing I deemed as safe for him to eat. They made a lovely mess. 🙂 He got lots of goodies as well. I made him a couple of ties from some of his Papa’s old ones. And he wears them with his Daddies mission tie clip. I forgot to get a photo of the ridiculous amounts of cuteness. I’ll get one this coming Sunday. It’s to die for adorable!

Oh, and I loved all the cards you sent me us this year. They look so lovely on my tree. I’ll scan my favorite card to share. Never mind it’s HERE. It’s pretty AWESOME right?!

We hope everyone had a lovely Family & Christ filled Christmas!
