One of my Fave's


I loVe going to watch the Easter Pageant at the Temple. We had front row seats. It was so greAt! During the show Madison Whispered this in my ear, "Mom, I feel like I am really there." How special! I am so grateful to my Savior for his example while he walked on earth. I am indebted to him forever for his atoning sacrifice which makes eternal life possible fo all people...including me and those i Love! We had a traditional "Petes Fish and Chips" picnic as we watched the show. The weather was nice and chilly.






More Egg hunts...with the Derf's



Easter with the Grandma and Grandpa Derfus is lots of fun.


























EasteR Morn

Happy Easter! Today actually happened to be General Conference. So no church just some fine family together time and some good inspirational talks from our Prophet and other inspired people. I really loved all of the sessions of Conference this year and felt the focus on family was so important. That is really all that matters to me in this life are the people that I love most.


Easter eGG hunt with the Allen's

Happy Easter ya'll!










We always have a fun time at Grandma Sharon's house the Saturday Morning before Easter.
The kids all love one another and get along great. The boys wrestle and laugh with eachother and the girls usually play house together. Some of the girls are the Mom's and some are the babies. It is funny because we always think that we hear one of our babies crying, but then realize that it is just the girls pretending to cry...silly GirlZ!!



Spring BreaK....

My dearest Blane...

Man oh man Blane!! You are 4 years old now! Please STOP growing!!!! I wish you could stay little forever. Sometimes Mom calls you my "baby" and you get mad at me...I'm sorry, but you will always be my baby. I love you so much bud. You are so cute. You are super determined to do things that your sister or brother are doing. You get frustrated and mad when things don't go your way. You are so loving... You still give BIG hugs to everyone you love. You are a good brother to Davin, Madison and Vance. You really look up to Davin and I love how much you admire and look up to Dad. He is like your super hero and as long as he's around you are happy. I like how you think you know everything and the way that you tell a story...it is so cute. i want you to know how much mom loves you. you are so special. I love all the questions you ask about heaven. For awhile, you thought that Heavenly father was Papa Dan. You were for sure that he was. I hope you will learn to recognize the spirit and stay close to it throughout your life. I just want the chance to be with you in heaven forever my sweet Blaney! I love you, bud.

My dearest Davin

I can't believe that you are already six. I am sad that I was gone in St. Thomas for Uncle Ricky's wedding on your birthday, but i hope you enjoyed the video I left you. I have to say that you are one amazing boy. You have really found your personality in Kindergarten. You are funny and a jokester. You are also such a sweet, good friend to your peers. I want you to know that I love you so much and that i am so happy with the choices you are making early on in your life. You make me laugh and i love wrestling with you and being goofy together. Thanks for bringing out my goofiness too! Thanks for being willing to come home after school and do your homework and learn your sight words. Your hard work is already paying off... You should always be proud of your accomplishments...Mom sure is proud of you. I love you no matter what and I hope for you to be happy forever and stay close to Heavenly Father throughout your life. You are already remembering to do that. You couldn't find something that you really, really wanted and finally I asked you if you said a prayer to help you find it and your response was..."I already said one, Mom, in my room!" What an inspiration you are to me. I love you scabs!

Mom

PartY, pArty, PaRty, paRtY, parTy, PaRtY!!




Happy Birthday OuR


BoyZ!!!














Yeeeeeeeee
Haaaaaaaaaaw!!






















This was such a great time. We had the whole gym to ourselves. They supplied and served Barro's Pizza, juice boxes and a cake. It was so easy...it felt weird not to have any planning to do.



















So Much fun!!



I was able to host a fun "Princess in Training" session for the young Activity Day girls in the church. It was fun to get a little fancy! I also made these cute little guidebooks that had proper ettiquette and manners for the girls to keep as a reminder of how important it is to be a lady. They loved it and they tried really hard to be "Proper".


Happy Mama's Day

I love my Family. "They are so good to me. I want to share my life with them through ALL eternity!" Families can be together forever.

I love being their MoM! And I hope they are happy to have me as their MoM.
