We had the best treat the other day. It was Grandparents day at the school and the kids were so blessed to have their Grandma and Great Grandma come. The day started off at 8:45. All of the students and their grandparents met in the gym for some special tributes. Abi had decided to enter the Grandparent essay contest and we were so excited that she was a winner. She was able to share her essay with the school and most importantly her Grandmas. There were many activities throughout the morning and then they were able to have lunch togehter. Our kids have been so blessed with wonderful Grandparents and they have also have had the special blessing to have Great Grandparents in their lives. To feel love from so many directions is a awesome. Thank you Mom and Grandma for coming and making the kids day. They talked about it for days, you even hit it off with their friends!!

Mac had his first school program and it was GREAT! They did "The Little Red Hen" and I have to say it was one of my favorites. Mac is on the front row with a mask on because he was the Steely Eyed Fox, who liked to steal things from the Little Red Hen. He did such a good job. He was a little nervous at first his teacher had to go behind the curtain and talk him into coming to the front of the stage, but after that he was the STAR!!!!

Easter 2009

What a wonderful Easter we had. We started the weekend off by heading to St. George we met mom and had Cafe Rio (the one thing that I have craved so far!) Then she took the kids on home to Beaver and Kev and I headed to Toucan for a "Night of Romance." Mom and her friend Donna gave us their tickets to see Jim Brickman a piano soloist in concert. It was so fun, Kev even enjoyed it he wasn't sure at first but there is nothing comparable to the surroundings of Toucan and to have the music ring off the red rock was amazing. So thank you Mom and Donna it was a wonderful night.

Saturday we prepared for the Williams annual egg hunt. We have moved it to Saturday so that we are able to keep the true spirit of Easter on Sunday. We just want to send out a very big "Thank you" to mom and dad for how fun they make this every year. It is so fun that they include the adults it helps us feel young again. There is nothing better than being together and sharing and creating memories.

Look at Alex's face he thought this was fantastic all that wonderful candy!

Yeah look at that smile. Little do you know that just moments before he was snatching eggs right out of the grasp of little childrens hands!!! Ok so he played fair this year what can I say he is just quicker than I. What a treat it was to have Megan and Jon there with us. We didn't think we would get to see them but they pulled through for us. Love you guys!

Julie showing Luke that she found money and he needed to look for eggs a little better!

Oh yeah baby, I found a good egg. This was my year, although Jon and Megan did do a little better (I am pretty sure they were cheating hahaha) I still had a good year.

Having Grandma come spend Easter with us was such a treat!

Having fun painting tea set.

Happy Easter! The kids were excited and had a hard time sleeping!

That silly bunny left more eggs for the kids to hunt down. They had a wonderful time looking and enjoyed the fun baskets that were left for them.

Kev, sooo happy to be awake and enjoying watching the kidos enjoying their Easter baskets.

Dad, Mom, and Grandma all headed up to Provo Easter morning to be with Jon while he was set apart into the Bishopric. So Andrea, Julie, and I were in charge of dinner. We had a lovely dinner at Julies house and everything tasted great, even the potatoes I was in charge of, believe it or not! What a wonderful Easter. We couldn't be more blessed to have the familes we have. To have the knowledge that our Savior loved us so much that he gave us his life.

YEAH T-BALL!!!!! Yes it is that time of year again. Mac was so excited to start this year. He was even more excited to find out that Kev was going to be his coach.

Goofy family!

Kev getting his team ready for opening ceremonies. He has the best little helper of all, Abi!!

It looks like a nice day, but, OHHH was it cold. Cold enough for a winter coat!

HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!!!

I hope that you all had a wonderful April Fools day. Mine was full of surprises. I started the morning off with Kev waking me up telling me that someone had shot the van window out with a BB gun. I was livid ranting and raving about the neighborhood we lived in and then Kev added, "Happy April Fools Day!" HAHAHAHAHA

I went about my morning gave the kids their breakfast made thier lunches and then proceeded to have my wonderful breakfast of Cheerios (my favorite thing right now.) When I poured my Cheerios out came Wheaties. Good ol' Abi had switched the bags. We had a good laugh and then I went to take my shower and wouldn't you know all my soap was missing when I needed it. Mac, yes little Mac, had taken it all out before I got into the shower. OHHH those kids picking on the one who is too tired to get them back!!!! They were full of it all day I felt sorry for their teachers!

I wish I could say I had the last laugh but the truth was the boys did. They took the soap out of the shower again before Abi got in. I guess Abi didn't think it was that funny!! I love our kids they are always keeping it interesting!
