So much to catch up on!!!

EASTER 2008

We went to my mom and dad's house after Sacrament last Sunday to be together for Easter and more importantly... for birthdays!! This year, it was not only an early, fun easter, but we also celebrated my Grandma's 77th birthday


and although he was not with us, we also celebrated my little baby nephew Eli's first birthday! Happy birthday you guys!! It was so fun to have the family together. Its kinda slow going for holidays so far, me and my brother being the ones that are just starting our families with little toddlers... so its kinda boring... but each year each holiday gets more fun as there are more kids added to our family and as they get older! Checking out their baskets inside...

Both Jayden and Keira did really good at finding eggs this year and being excited. In their baskets they got sunglasses ($1.00 at target and well loved!) and stickers, some bubbles... and few tank tops and a little junk food. Jayden's announcement that there are eggs to be found outside!!!

Keira -Where is that egg at mom?-

A sneaky one in the flowers

Easter stuff and egg finding was fun, but they girls have been more and more excited about the pool at mom and dads! Every day Jayden talks about going to the pool and how cold it is. But she loves it.. and the cold doesn't stop them much.

(see... egg finding in beautiful swimwear!)

It also turned out to be a favorite place for the easter bunny to hide some money eggs for my youngest brother Scott. You've got to have incentive for diving in the freezing pool!! how does $20 in change sound? yep, like incentive enough!

My mom and dad and all their granddaughters!!

Grandma Howells & Tapia Cousins!!!

Chris's grandmother was staying down here for the last month or so! We didn't even get enough grandma time in and she's already left us!! We're so sad that she's gone. But we had some fun! We had a BBQ at our house a couple weeks ago for her birthday and a lot of family was in and out! it was crazy!!
We were also busy the last two weeks with the added fun of added kids!!! Two weeks ago I got to spend lots of time with Micheal and Alicia... they stayed with us and Shirlee for their spring break. And last week we got to have Zella almost every day for a few hours for her spring break. We have some cute pictures of the girls together.
This shows their personalities so much!
