Suprises, Birthdays, Easter, And More!!

The past few weeks have been crazy!! Alisha came into town and surprised us the last week of march. Unfortunately I wasn;t thinking and got no photos of her and her cute little Liloes! It was so fun to see her again and to be able to spend time with her. Her kids got sick while she was here which always makes it hard to be away from home and away from the hubby! But well take her anytime we can get her sick kids and all! She got to spend General Conference with us and then set off for the long drive home! We look forward to seeing her later in the summer!

Cole also celebrated his 6th Birthday the end of March!!!! Seriously....I have a six year old!! He is such a great kid and for the most part is such a big helper and an awesome older brother. He is one tough cookie and has received the nick name "The Man Child" from some of his friends Dads. But even tough he has the rough and tough side he can really be such a sweetheart! I love him to death and so glad that he is the guinea pig for all of Jer and I's parenting mistakes, he takes it well!! We decided to have a Soccer party for his birthday, which was shocking because I thought for sure he would want some sort of animal party since he is addicted to "Animal planet" and every library book he picks out is about animals! But Soccer it was! We had all of his little buddies over and for 2 hours had total chaos at our house. I definitely can't do that every year, well just stick to the big birthdays and call it good! We sure love him though and our so grateful he is part of our little family!
Cole's "Soccer ball" cake. Nothing fancy, but it worked!

To Top all that off was Easter!! We headed down to Sunny St. George and for the most part the weather didn't disappoint. We only had one day of rain, but we heated the pool so it didn't matter what the temperature was outside the kids were swim'in! We took the bikes and between the pool, bikes, park and cousins the kids were exhausted by bed time. Which made me even more excited for summer and less excited to come home to a foot of snow in the front yard! Soon enough...right?
