That's how we roll

I have more Easter photos I forgot to post. Included are the Easter Egg Roll tradition we did with my sister's family.





I made our bunny cake to celebrate. It was tasty!

Lilia lately,

She loves her books! And I've finally convinced her to sit in that chair.
Lily recently discovered the fun of slides.
She loves bubbles.
She was so silly the other morning.
She was such a show-off while her cousins were here.

Learning to hula hoop.
Lily loved these large stuffed dogs at Peebles.
She thinks her new tunnel is so funny,
and Mommy got stuck crawling through it.
Lily's favorite toys are non-toy items, and she loves socks.
I caption this "put a sock in it."

She is no longer afraid of dogs! She loves them!
We played at a friend's house who had a ball pit!

Hoppy Easter!






My sister Rachel and her 6 kiddos are having fun with us during their spring break
.


We started Easter with LOTS of candy and an egg hunt in the back yard.We got all dolled up and went to church. Easter Sunday is always a favorite of mine. I felt especially close to my Savior Jesus Christ. Our pretty Easter Lily!

Lily's 1st Easter Egg Hunt

A family in our ward invited us to an Easter Egg Hunt at their house. There were about 30 kids from 1 years to 8 years old. She kept the bunny ears on the entire time. Before we left they fell off and of course I lost them on the way to the car.


They had 2 bouncey houses, a swing set, and lots of food.

Two trails leading back to a fire pit is where the eggs were hidden. One trail for the 5 and under and the other for the older kids.
Lily picked up 2 eggs and she was done, after all she only has 2 hands!I tried to put them in her basket and she threw the basket and kept her eggs. She found a Reese's cup on the ground and quickly found a way to eat it. It was her only piece of candy today.
We have another egg hunt on Saturday at church. And the Hyde cousins will be here tomorrow! Happy Easter!

Do blondes really have more fun? I guess I'll find out.


Ta da! I did it, with the help of my friend Amber. She is a professional stylist and I asked her to do her magic and make me beautiful. I think she did a wonderful job and I'm excited to see everyone's reaction to my change. She said it will probably lighten a little but for now I'm a brunette. I haven't been a brunette since I was an infant. Lily wasn't upset about it. She came right to me and touched my hair, made a funny face and then hugged me. True love! David smiled and said "It looks good!" (good answer hubby!) Let me know what you think.

Be sure to vote whether blondes have more fun or not. (See the side bar.)

Snapshots into our life, say cheese!

Lily is ready for the beach this summer!


She loves sitting inside stuff, especially laundry baskets.








She has a cranky face. If she doesn't like something, trust me you'll know.





This is the only way we were ever going to eat dinner tonight.
