Hoppy Easter

We went to an Easter Egg hunt with Jared and JJ and their kids(Josh's brother and his wife and 3 kids) which was super fun. Of course when the fun began both kids went different directions so I only got pics of Kaytlin at the egg hunt!

Then we colored Easter Eggs! Kaytlin thought the eggs would be better eaten rather than colored! Brayden just got right down to business getting them colored!

And of course, I bet you all thought it was sort of strange to let Brayden dye Easter Eggs in a white shirt. I planned it that way at least taking a yucky shirt to dye in because the white shirt has holes in the back from the dryer... but we used the left over dye to tie dye his white shirt! What a novel idea huh? We can't forget about their new Easter clothes... Kaytlin got a cute dress and Brayden has on his new church digs!

Aren't they the cutest kids?

The weather has been wonderful this week besides a snow or rain storm periodically but during one of the nice stints we played outside! With warmer weather the kids love to be outside more! I took lots of pictures on our first day back outside after winter so have fun and enjoy the warm weather with us! By the way this is the first time Kaytlin got to use her swing we bought her for her Birthday!

Then after swinging for awhile we went on a bike ride! We rode to the library and the bank!

And the next day we went out in the nice weather and we went to the river and fed the ducks! Of course they were hungry... when aren't they!

All in all the weather has been great so of course we have to enjoy it! The next few months will be just as fun as this month has been!

Josh celebrated his 28th birthday! I know he is getting old! Anyway... we went out to dinner and i made sure the waitress knew to make a fool of him. They came to the table and put balloon ears on him and sang really loud! They had all you could eat steak fries and so we took advantage... we love to eat!

A Day At A Glance!

First comes food! We had a bag of bread on the kitchen table where Kaytlin was able to get ahold of it. She was hungry because it was shortly after she woke up! We caught her in the act and thought it was hilarious.

After we feed the little ducks its bath time! Both Kaytlin and Brayden loves baths! When brother doesn't take a bath with her Kayltin likes to lay in the water and kick and splash so i get wet!

After bath time its dress time! Brayden picks out his own clothes and Kaytlin's on most days. On this particular day i put her hair into 3 pigtails. I had to get a picture and share with you all! When i take Brayden's picture any time now he has to be a goofball but I love my Goofball!

Recently we came in contact with a family that is truly hurting and amazing. To even know the extent of love, peace and joy something tragic has to happen. Through one small act others may know love! Our family is truly blessed! We have each other here on earth and we will be together throughout all of eternity with our Heavenly Father! Having that knowledge has helped many of those that are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I can't relate nor do i ever hope to relate to the story i will share with you. My family growing up was in a similar situation so i kind of know a little bit. I am going to dedicate this blog entry to our friends in the gospel the Gledhill Family. I would encourage you all to take a peek at their blog... http://thegledhillfamily.blogspot.com/ This family has been through a lot within the past year and are still strong and will be together again! You may want to grab a box of tissue because i have certainly shed many tears over knowing their personal story! Thanks Michele for sharing your blessed daughter and life with us! Peace be with Gracie!

So our little Kaytlin is growing so fast! She climbs up and over everything and I wanted to give you all a glance as to what she is up to and how her big brother Brayden cheers her on!

This past weekend Josh and I decided it was about time to get our laundry on the floor instead of on a 3 foot high platform. I must admit i miss the stretching to do laundry every week and it is a big adjustment to have them on the floor! On Saturday, Josh, his dad and brother Jared did it! I can honestly say it looks good but i havent tried it yet. I also must include that the handyman gene did not come through in this family so I was kind of surprised it looks so nice. My dad requested some pictures of the after and i didnt get a chance to get any before shots so kind of picture the platform where the washer and dryer sit. Probably later this evening i will try the contraption out to make sure everything works good!
