David and Jocelyn's Wedding

We had a wonderful weekend, Devin's twin brother was married to Jocelyn and it was a perfect day! We are so happy Jocelyn has joined our family! We went down on Friday morning to my parents house where I put together their wedding flowers. Then that afternoon we were able to go to BYU to see Jocelyn graduate. Then that evening we had a dinner at Devin's parents house with all of Devin's family and Jocelyn's to celebrate and to get to know one another before the wedding. Then Saturday was the wedding day. They had a beautiful ceremony in the Mt. Timpanogos Temple and it was amazing to be there and witness their wedding. They both so happy all day and we were all so happy for them! Then they had a wonderful luncheon that afternoon. It was a special day and it was so great to be able be a part of it, Congratulations David and Jocelyn!

Our attempt to get a picture of all of the grandkids together, this is literally the best picture I got of all of them! Trying to get a picture of 5 kids under 4 is difficult!

Camille and Sadie, what cute girls!

Sadie loving being down with the big kids on the steps!

SO happy to be down and out of my arms for a little while.

I love this little face!

Easter Weekend

We had a great Easter weekend! On Saturday we had Easter with my family, we had a really fun Easter egg hunt in the basement because it was raining (but I thought it was a fun new challenge) and then had dinner. Grandma, Sadie and Carson

A cute one of Sadie and Daddy during the hunt, as you can tell neither one of them was too concerned about getting a lot eggs, but they did have fun being together.

Sadie checking out all of her goodies from the hunt!

Sadie loving the bunny from her Great Grandparents and her puppy from her Grandparents, thank you everyone for the sweet gifts.

Then we spent Easter Sunday with the Smith's. We went up to Layton to hear Devin's cousin give his mission farewell talk and then spent the afternoon with Devin's dad's side of the family. We had a really fun afternoon being with family.

Sadie and Daddy Easter morning. This is Sadie's Easter basket, she loved her little duck and her spring outfit that the bunny brought to her.

I am grateful for the Savior Jesus Christ, for His Atoning sacrifice for us and the blessing of the Resurrection. I am thankful for this Easter season when I can take a special moment to pause and recognize how truly grateful I am for the Savior and the gift He has given to me. I love this time of year when spring is arriving and all of the trees are beginning to bud and bloom. I always think spring is a special time of year as we celebrate new life, I think this year I am ecspecially grateful because we have new life in our home, Happy Easter.

Easter Eggs

I love to dye Easter eggs every year, so we decided this week it would be a fun activity for our Family Home Evening. We didn't let Sadie near the dye because she is grabbing everything these days, but she did have fun watching the process and then holding the eggs after they dried. Devin dying an egg for Sadie and her standing by to make sure he does it just right.

Sadie gripping her egg pretty tight, we were a little worried she would crack it.

My favorite picture of the night, what a cute girl!

Here is Sadie and I and the egg I dyed for her, I think she liked it!

The three of us, I love my family!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Happy Birthday Mom! Yesterday was my mom's birthday and Sadie and I took her to lunch and then we went shopping at Nordstrom. It was a very fun girls day! We had her birthday dinner on Sunday night, here are a few pictures from her party. Happy Birthday Mom, we love you!Getting ready to blow out the birthday candles! Devin and I made the cake and I even attempted to write on it. Val makes such beautiful cakes, so I was a little intimidated that I was in charge of the cake. I thought it was cute, but definitely not anything close to Val's masterpieces.

Kyle and Sadie having some fun. It was her first ride on the shoulders and she looks a little nervous. My cute cousin Hannah and her boyfriend Michael, that we all love.

Carson just loves Sadie and he wanted to hold her, they looked so cute!
