Calvin & Emily's Wedding

Calvin is the oldest grandchild on Daniel's side of the family and also the first to get married. He was married in the Payson temple in April and we decided if we could pull it off, we would go. And so we did!! Here is all of Daniel's siblings and spouses who attended the wedding, surounding Calvin and Emily outside the Payson Temple. It was a beautiful ceremony and a beautiful day. I absolutely loved being back in Utah in the spring. Everything was blooming and it was gorgeous. 
 We went to the UVU campus to buy t-shirts and then headed to BYU to get t-shirts at the bookstore. The campus was buzzing!! Graduation time!! Oh it was so nostalgic!!! I LOVED being there!! Even the smell of the food court took me back. We made sure to buy a Jamba Juice in the WILC.
We stayed a couple nights in Salt Lake City with Jake and Tiff. We attended the Salt Lake City temple with their entire family and it was wonderful.
It wasn't a BYU football game, it was an Orem High School soccer game but it had the same feel (sort of). We enjoyed watching Aidan play for his senior night.  
 We went back to the place it all began... The Pizza Factory. The food was delicious as always and we took a picture in the booth Daniel was sitting at the first night we met. 
 A few wedding day photos.

Happy Easter 2019

Our Easter festivities this year were mostly Benny owning every egg hunt he could. Our church had one, his school had one, and our family had one. And he found eggs like a champ!!
The Easter Bunny did indeed visit us this year!

Benny's school also had a special program where the kids released butterflies. It was so cute.

Legoland!!!

I chaperoned Ivy's fieldtrip to Legoland and boy did we have a fun time!!! I had never been and it was a total blast! The park was totally dead so we didn't wait in any lines! The roller coasters were perfect size for me and the weather was beautiful! We stayed late and enjoyed every minute of it. Kiri joined us for most of the day and when the bus went home we had Holland to spend the evening with!

Miscellaneous March!

Here are the in-betweens!

Benny had been begging ever since we went to the trampoline place for Bubba's birthday to go back. So we did!!
 Spent a Saturday tubing and on the boat!
 This cute little guy has been obsessed with the Eurasian badger in his little book but that darn badger is also giving him bad dreams at night!! A real love/hate relationship going on here.  
 Grocery shopping with my boys! Why does eliminating one of my older children make life so much easier?
 Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
 Spending an afternoon in the toy section of Walmart is a big hit!
 Just catching snakes on our back porch like its no thing!
 Youth temple trip. I photo bombed their family picture actually but in reality I am a part of their family so it was all good. :) 
A sleeping, snuggly Benny!
