3!

Happiest Birthday to the funniest, snuggliest, silliest, sweetest 3 year old in the whole world. I couldn't be more in love with my little Claire. She is still such a "bundle of joy". She makes us laugh each and every day, and never ceases to melt mine and her daddy's heart. I thank my Heavenly Father every day for the joyous blessing of being her mom. There isn't a job I could love more than being her mom.
Happy Birthday Claire Bear.
"We love you more"!!
 

Spring Break

The week after the camping trip, Lilly had spring break, so the girls and I stayed in St. George for the week. Last minute my sister-in-law Katie, and her 4 kids, decided to stay with us for a few days. I am SO glad she did. We had the most absolute perfect time. It was so fun! When she drove off to go home, I about burst into tears...I didn't want her to leave because it was so fun. We did movie nights, swam a lot at the pool, caught frogs on the golf course, went to the splash pad, rode bikes, played with "the big blue ball"...it was non stop fun. Seriously.
We also got to spend lots of time with my in laws. I got to meet baby Chambers...what a doll baby!! I could have held him all day long. The girls were in heaven being with another set of cousins, and seeing their Grandma and Pompa. There were several fun nights spent up at Grandma's house...we caught frogs in her pond (again!), and the girls had a hot do roast over their fire pit (I got a night off...heavenly!), and of course, Lilly got to have a sleepover, one of her very favorite things in the world. It is always so hard for me to come home from St. George. It is hard to leave the beautiful weather and cousins. Counting down the days until our next trip!!
 

 

 

 

 

Snow Canyon

For spring break, my family took a camping trip to Snow Canyon. Growing up, we always used to spend Easter there, and we all have such fond memories of it. It was really one of the most fun trips our family has taken. The kids were so happy to ride bikes, play in the sand, roast marshmallow...all the typical camping things. And, no electronics. The kids were just kids...I loved it! My girls looooved sleeping in a tent, and they did so much better than I thought. The keep asking to go again. I loved being with my siblings and their cute kids. I miss being around them! It was 3 days of pure fun!
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tumbling Showcase

A few weeks ago, Lilly finished up her tumbling class, and had a Showcase for family and friends...so they could show off everything they learned. It was darling. Lilly did well, but most importantly, she enjoyed it! I could tell she was a little nervous to perform in front of a big crowd, but she did really well! As soon as she received her metal, she ran as fast as she could into her daddy's arms. It was so darling. Claire bear hugged her and was really excited for Lilly. It was a fun morning!!
