{Easter}

This was Bosty's first Easter! 

We had a good weekend celebrating our Savior and spending time with family!

coloring eggs with cousins

 Isn't he so stinkin' cute! Can't get enough of those bunny ears on that cute little round face!

All the kids had an Easter egg hunt up at my Parents before dinner. 

The Easter bunny left some goodies for B :)

It's official that every holiday is SO much better with a little one to enjoy it with!

Vegas Vacation

A few weeks ago we went on a family vaca to Vegas! It's been a while since my whole fam (mom,dad,siblings and grandkids) have all gone on a big vacation together. Out of state, that is. Some might not think Vegas is big, but for my family, trying to get about all 30 of us somewhere far, takes some work :) My parents love to travel and have lots of time share points, so they used some points and got us all rooms at the Hilton Grand Vacation Club on the Strip. (where we always stay in Vegas) We love it! The trip consisted of swimming, eating, Circus Circus, shopping!, Hoover Dam, some more shopping and eating, the Dolphin and Lion Habitat at the Mirage, New York, New York roller coaster, all the Strip action and more! We had so much fun being with everyone, well close to everyone ..my bro and bro-in-law and one of my nieces couldn't make it! we missed them but, It was a party and i love my family.

 

Mr. Giggles

I love hearing these giggles all day. He's such a little goof!

He was laughing all because i was blowing on him and on his toys. 

New Ride

For a while now we've debated about selling Preston's car and getting a larger mid-size SUV. With the baby and all of the extra room we need, especially for vacations, we did it.

(who knew one little boy could need so many things!) 

Anyway we sold P's car and within a day we had this pretty 4-Runner! 

(All thanks to my cousin and his hook-ups!)

We love it! I've always wanted a 4-Runner and i'm happy to say i am very satisfied.

We already initiated it into the fam and took it to Vegas last week. It was so nice to drive in and have that extra room.

 

7 Months

My sweet little Bosty Roo turned 7 months today!

It's hard to believe it! He is growing up so fast. I know i say it every month older he gets, but it's true. Time goes too fast! I know every mother knows the feeling.

My sister snapped a few of these pictures a couple weeks ago. He's such a handsome little thing.

He is a ladies man. We can't go anywhere without getting stopped so people can see him and tell us how freakin' cute he is! Like we didn't know?? ;)

He is the sweetest, happiest most perfect little boy. seriously. We are so blessed. 

Ah, i love him!

Sad News

This is my sister Heather and my brother-in-law Jeff with their kids Kaylee and Kaden. I love this family so much. I have always been close to them. I love her kids like my own. This past weekend they got news that Jeff got a new position in his company. That position is moving them to St. Louis. Here came the water works. Jeff leaves in April and the rest of the family will move out in June when Kaylee gets out of school. I will miss them so much. The worst part is they don't know if they'll ever come back to Utah, just depends on where Jeff's job takes them. I know it's common in a lot of families to have siblings live in other states. But not mine. We've all been lucky enough to all still be here in Utah. HOME. So it will be a big adjustment and hard to get used to. I don't know how anyone gets used to not having their family close by. Our kids were supposed to grow up together and play together. Now they'll maybe see each other a couple times a year. I'm happy for them and Jeff's success, but i am going to miss those babies so much. And my sister and brother. Now Prest and I are just going to have to have a savings dedicated to plane tickets -just to go out and visit them. Wish me luck that i will get used to this. So far, it's not working :(

My Lovers Birthday

March 9th was Preston's birthday! 

He had three different celebrations throughout the week with family. He got this new bike from his family. He's already ridden it a lot and is excited to really test it out in the triathlons this summer.

 

Mimi and Payton and Presley

The day of his b-day Boston had his 6 mo. check-up, so we went to that and then went out to lunch, opened some presents and went to Gateway and did some shopping and went to dinner at Happy Sumo. 

He still has a surprise present from me, coming soon :)

The birthday boy!

 Yesterday we celebrated with my family.

He got some new clothes, gift cards and new temple clothes, that he really needed!

We love you Prest! Hope you enjoyed your birthday week :)
