Cute Relatives

Here are some of my cute relatives -- the little boy is Alonzo and the sleeping baby is Abigail. .

Here are a couple more fun relatives. Sarah is the little girl, and Eddie is below -- Eddie wouldn't let me get very many close up's without him moving his eyes -- I got one that makes a great Halloween picture -- his eyes are almost going two directions!!!!

All right, enough for now -- I guess I had better go pay my taxes -- Fed Ex showed up at my door just now, and then maybe I will clean my house. . . I think blogging would be more fun!

Here is Lucy tending my newest neice, Abigail -- born on St Patrick's day.



We were able to do it -- we got the whole quilt tied! Hooray for us!! If those tiny knots that we had to use from the scraps hold, I will be amazed!!! We were scrounging at the end with no more thread and about 7 more knots needed! What a fun memory!



We even got our signs done! AMAZING what you can do with only newborns and lot's of willing hands around!

Sister Reunion

All right, for those of you that see I really posted a bunch -- I had to clear my conscience before I post the most recent -- I still have a couple posts for April -- but different camera, different card. . . Anyway, I just got home from a weekend trip to Utah, ALONE!!! Yes, I know, not a normal thing for a mom with three young boys and a very BUSY husband!! But, thanks to my mom and dad and brother and sister -- I was able to go to a women only retreat with Jake's mom and sisters and the other "in-law" sisters. . . We had a blast!



On Saturday morning, we got up early and went to the temple in Manti. What a fantastic experience! Our session was extra special with Elder Oakes attending that session to -- for me it just added to a fantastic memory!


Manti is the temple that Jake and I were sealed in -- I guess it has some extra memories and specialness just because of that. . .
After the temple, we came home and worked on a big quilt -- we tied and ate -- and ate and tied . . . Are we going to be able to finish?!


Here is when we were getting some of the yummy food that only Lisa can provide -- thanks to her for hosting!

Easter

For Easter this year, we went to our annual ward egg hunt, and then on Sunday, we hid a few eggs inside and out for the boys to find. It was such a beautiful time of year and the chocolate eggs didn't melt outside -- UNUSUAL!!

With Jake home, you would think I would have been able to get better pictures. . . I realize now that I didn't get one of them all together either in their play clothes or church clothes. . . what kind of mom misses that opportunity?!! -- It seems like that day I was doing well to just get pictures of them while they were running everywhere!! :)
