Spring Break!

For Spring Break we decided to spend a few days in Salt Lake since Blair is down there most of the week we thought we might as well join him and get away for a few days. Despite the weather not cooperating we had a really good time and were able to do some fun things. We met my sister and her kids at Kangaroo Zoo and the kids had a blast jumping around there. We also went to the Living planet aquariam, the Gateway childrens museum, and got a chance to look at a few houses. We also got to eat a lot of good food and Brooklyn's favorite part of staying with Tyson and Katie is always going in the hot tub. We had a great time and it was nice to get away for a few days and get away from the stress of life right now.










My amazing quilt!

So months ago I posted on my quilt that I was working on, well I put it off when we started trying to sell the house. Well with that being so unsuccessful I decided that pulling out the quilt would divert my attention to something else and boost my spirits and it did just that. Not only did I love working on it, but now that it is done I just want to start on another one. Now I am thinking about making ones for the girls. I am so proud of it and as long as you don't look too close it is pretty good. One down and many more to come!

Staying busy!

The last little while has been a little crazy with Blair in Salt Lake most of the week and us here alone. We have been trying to stay busy and sane and have been doing okay. Some days are better than other, but overall we are doing good. The kids keep me laughing and having a good time and I am so grateful for them.

They stay busy doing crazy things and keeping me on my toes. They just love playing on this matress and actually all three played together without any fighting and without Hunter biting anyone. (Both rare)


I bought these new boots the other day and Brooklyn think that they are just wonderful, so she spent most of the morning wearing them and being a model. Hunter also had to have his turn wearing the boots. It was a good thing the Blair wasn't home for that.

Rocking the Halls!

Isabel has been working really hard at reading a lot of books and taking AR tests and this past friday she was able to "rock the halls". I got the chance to go and watch her and it was so much fun to see. They started by playing "who let the dogs out," and then the kids follow the principal running down the hall as all of the other students stand in the hall cheering them on. It was really fun to see and I am so proud of the reader that she is becoming. She was so happy and it was a great day for her.
