Easter Blessings

We had a great day on Easter Sunday. It was jam packed with family and fun! We finally had a Sunday where we could have Cruz' blessing. What a perfect day to do it on Easter! We had all of our families come to our house and have brunch afterwards. Nothing like cramming 25 people and 15 kids into our house. But I do feel so blessed that we have great families to share the holiday with. I also feel so blessed to have two beautiful healthy kids and a husband who takes care of our little family.
We also had a bbq at Sam's moms house later that afternoon and Sienna got to do her 4th Easter egg hunt for the week. We have candy coming out of our ears!!! It almost felt like Christmas with all the loot she received!

My handsome boy-looking so big!




Sienna was being camera shy that morning so we didn't get a family picture of all of us. Little stinker!


My parents with Cruz




Easter morning-The Easter bunny left some awesome baskets!


Sienna is in love with Tangled lately. I think we have watched it everyday for the past 3 weeks!



Easter egg hunt at Grandpa David's and Grandma Annette's house. Cousin Griffin and Sienna are the most spoiled grand kids I have ever seen!


Happy Easter!!!

St. George

We made our annual trip to St. George for Spring Break this year. It feels like its been a long time since we've been to St. George. My family always has fun at the condo in the warm weather and pools. This year we had one day of warm weather-60 degrees was it! The other two days it rained. BOO! It's always a nice break from being inside the house all winter at least. Hopefully next year it will be much much warmer!

One of the highlights of the trip was Cruz sleeping the entire 4 hour drive! AND Sienna slept 2 hours. We didn't have to stop once with two normally loud kids in the car. THAT was awesome!

We went to the animal museum (Can't remember the exact name). Sienna had a great time with her binoculars and cousins to run around with.


I love that she is wearing the appropriate cheetah jacket to match the stuffed cheetah on exhibit


We only dipped Cruz's feet in because it was so cold. Sienna didn't care how warm it was. She kept saying, "I want to go to Curious George to go swimming with Grandma!!"

Bon Jovi

I finally saw one of my favorite 80's bands-BON JOVI!!! Unfortunately it was at the Energy Solutions Arena. Concerts never sound that great in that venue. We were sitting in the upper bowl, so luckily I remembered my trustee binoculars. It was a fun girls night out-one I will never forget!


Bobbi and Savannah sitting in the front seat of Nicole's mustang-totally legal!
Me and Janaye in the back seat READY to ROCK!!!
Nicole, Jen, and I waiting to order. AND I mean waiting and waiting and waiting!!! We ate at IGGY's before the concert! Really good but really slow on service! Everyone had the same idea as us! WE thought we were smart to go to dinner two blocks away from the concert!




They didn't play "Always", my favorite song, but "Bad Medicine" went on for 20 minutes! I did love the cheesy 80's aerobic dance moves from Jon Bon Jovi though! Hopefully this isn't their last tour!
