Olivia's Graduation

Graduation from Preschool Olivia was excited that means Kindergarten is not far behind! Although she has the shots looming ahead! And then soon it will be her birthday!! We have to go in order of things and when they happen to put it in perspective for her! Like when Landen will be home two birthdays! Will soon have one down. She was ready to head out the door and up the road to graduate! Can you tell? They sang some songs that they had been learning through out the year! Did the actions that went with those songs!
And pondered life as you wait for your name to be called to get that diploma!
And do some more actions with those fun songs you learned!!
Then the diploma and that hat are presented to you and you know you have graduated. Olivia also earned a Bachelors degree for attending two years with Ms. Tamara!
The graduating class of 2009!! Can you believe my baby is going to Kindergarten! Neither can I!!
I held back the tears I didn't want to be the only mom crying! I don't think I'll be that good when she goes to Kindergarten!

Temple Tour!

On the ride home from Island Park we stopped at the two temples that where on the way home. I couldn't get the pictures to move so you get them out of order! This is the Idaho Falls Temple I just love the way the falls are by it! They had a special collection of pictures that we got to see and hear the story behind each one it was really neat. Especially where it was Easter Sunday and nothing made it seem like it. The Rexburg temple and boy is it beautiful!! Wow the blue sky and everything was so green it just stood out! The picture doesn't do it justice! It is up on a hill and just an amazing site!
At the Idaho Falls temple we walked around and feed the ducks. The kids had a great time! Dividing the bread!
Our family minus one!! AGAIN
It was a nice ride home!!

Easter (for Celiece)

Well I finally got the pictures loaded and here they are. For Easter we where invited to my buddies parents cabin which is in Island Park. So we headed up there to spend the weekend playing and we spent a day in West Yellowstone. There was still tons of snow up there but it was warm and the snow was so wet the kids would come in just soaked! Olivia loved playing outside. As you can see it was one of her favorite things! This is Gracie and her buddie Olyvia. They had tons of fun sleeping and playing together. Sliding down the piles of snow! We stopped at the Bear and Wolf place can't think of what its name is and in the gift shop they had this huge bear. This is my Buddie Kim and her beast Brandon and there little family. We have three kids that are the same age as two of hers. The oldest would be Riley in the green he and Nicole are the same age and they aren't very fond of one another, oh well they got along and they end up playing the Wii and Singstar together but we won't tell anyone that. Then there is Jensyn and Megan they are the same age and then, Gracie and Hanna. Isn't it a cute little family!!
Oh how I hate this picture of me but I guess I'll put it on. Our family minus Jerry.
This is the Polar bear at the West Yellowstone Bear and Wolf. This is

Olivia hanging out by the wolves.
The whole crew. We had a great time!
Gracie acting silly in the girls area of the cabin. It worked great for the seven girls we had the older three got there own room just next to this one and then the little four had this area. Megan and Jensyn acting goofy while playing the Wii. What a great thing I love it I wish we would get one!
The adults playing an exciting game of DOMINOS! I love to play them but can you say find something more thrilling! More fun than watching GOLF (no offense to Brandon)
Supper time YEAH! This was Brandon's night to cook we got the next night!! It was yummy! Kim being a goof!!
Breakfast the next morning "B" made his swedish pancakes YUMMY! I recommend everyone try those. We had quite a crew to feed with our four kids Kim's five and one extra! We did it though and everyone got along it was amazing and great! Gracie and Hanna waiting so patiently!
Olivia patiently waiting as well. Isn't she a cutie. Another picture of Cash
Nicole playing the Wii
The crew being goofy and excited to be there!
I do have to add that next to our mad Dominos skills Kim and I sang about all of our Singstar discs in a four hour or more span! Oh do I feel bad for everyone who had to listen but we had so much fun and we didn't get to horsy after! Jerry was very impressed with Kim's skills on the "Baby got back" she knew all the words. Who knew!!! We had the best time!! Thank you Kim and "B" for a great time and we can't wait to go back!!
