Cousins party

The girls got out early on Wednesday for Spring Recess so we had a little party for the cousins at Scott and Julie's.  They LOVED playing in the playhouse and jumping on the tramp since it was such GREAT weather outside.  Jessie absolutely loved watching the girls jump. 

 We decorated Easter Eggs. 

 and decorated cookies! Yummy!

 During conference on Saturday we had a picnic in the living room.  Then Saturday night we got to have Addison and Carter for the night while Jen was in California.  We watched movies and had a GREAT time!

 I LOVE conference. snuggly kids that are warn out from playing with friends and cousins and awesome talks- nothing better :)

For the afternoon session of Conference, we headed to the Jones' for dinner and the annual Easter Egg hunt! We had so much fun and appreciate them for all the work they put into the 5 minute madness that is the "bunny zone" 

 All the kids waiting... so exciting!

 Jessie found her one egg and was happy

 Oh wait-- Jessie saw that her sister had more candy and she wanted it!

Dinosaur Museum

Brielle's Kindergarten class has been doing a unit on Dinosaurs since January and at the end they had a Dinosaur Museum that all the family was invited to. We were able to see all the fun things they have been working on. My favorite part was the recordings they had made of all the dinosaur sounds that was playing in the background. Too cute! Way to go Brielle- you know so much about dinosaurs, it amazes me the things you remember and how smart you are! Love you!

The class has 2 pet Guinea Pigs. Brielle loves to hold them and Mrs Nelson even lets them run around the room to get exercise. 

On the move

 We went to family skate night last week at Classic Skating. Brielle did GREAT on her roller blades and Jessie absolutely LOVED cruising around the rink in her stroller. 

Baby on the move! Jessie is all over the place now and is determined to check out every inch of every room. She also can balance and stand on her knees and will even let go of holding on to something and stand for a few seconds before falling. She is going to be walking before I know it- CRAZY!

 Jessica is getting so good at pulling herself up to things. She is even learning to get down (hallelujah!) But tonight she was standing next to the couch and I got the cute picture above- a little while later, probably about 10 minutes or so I look over and she has laid her head down and looks like she is about ready to fall asleep. She cracks me up- LOVE this girl ;)

High Tea

Activity Days is for girls ages 8-11 in our church. Every year we have a mother daughter activity and this year we had High-Tea. I LOVE being in this calling, the girls are so cute and we have LOTS of fun!  We made fancy hats and learned about etiquette and manners. Then we ate yummy food and drank water (instead of tea). It turned out so cute and we had lots of fun.

 

Its beginning to feel a lot like spring

I don't know about you..but we are LOVING this nice weather!
