Easter and a Powder Day!

Image
For the past 2 weeks our house has had Easter Eggs everywhere! I had to stuff a little over 2,000 eggs for my works Annual Easter Egg Hunt. Reese loved making a mess with them and playing with them. She made stuffing them very difficult. She would actually help put the candy in the eggs for about 15 minutes or so and then just wanted to eat the candy, and play with the eggs and made it impossible to get them done. Saturday was the Easter Egg Hunt and after all that stuffing Reese didn't even get to come and enjoy it. It was way to cold to have her out. It has snowed Friday night and we had like 30 mph winds that morning. It was almost impossible to scatter over 20,000 eggs in the park with the wind. The wind was blowing the eggs and our prizes all over. But despite the freezing cold we had just as good of turn out as usual. I was shocked! People are serious about their Easter Egg Hunts... haha . BreAna , Lincoln and the boys were in town for the weekend. Reese went and hung out...

Playing Outside

Reese is loving the warmer weather here in Pocatello . I took her to the park behind where we live Thursday and she couldn't have been happier. She smiled and laughed the whole time we were out. We went down the slide a couple times, played in the dirt and I let her just cruise around where ever she wanted. It was fun to just follow her around and watch her explore. We have a hill in the back yard and she loves to run down it. She would fall down.....try to get back up....end up falling forward....and roll about 3 times and get up. Big old grin on her face the whole time and come up with leaves and branches all over her. This is the look Reese gets on her face with she sees the dogs and watches them chase around the yard. She just wants to follow them everywhere they go and gets a big kick out it when they come barreling by her. I'm always afraid Sage is going to take her out but manages to barely miss her and she will just laugh. We are going to have so much fun with her t...

2010 What a year it will be!! Good news all around!

Well it has been a while since I posted anything. We had a little camera trouble and now we are all fixed up so time for a update. We have been keeping busy with Reese, work and skiing. Reese is now 14 months and is busy as ever. She has to climb on everything, run everywhere she goes and loves to chase the dogs around the house. Pu- pu - pu -puppies, bye, hi, Dad and Mom are words she says most the time right now. My favorite is when she says ' yesssss ' and raises her fist up in the air. She learned that one from me while we were watching the Olympics. You have to be careful with her if she doesn't like how something is going she will tell you off. You can't understand what she is saying but you know you are getting the word. We need to be a little more careful when leaving the door open. She will make a straight shot for the yard and cries when be bring her back in and shut the door. It is so fun to watch her learn new things everyday. We are so lucky to have such a...

California Vacation - Day 6 Disney Land ----- Round 3

Image
For our 6 th and final day in California we were back to Disney Land for Round 3. It was raining all day long so we got there a little late and only stayed for a couple hours. We did however get to get a picture with Tinkerbell and ride a couple more rides. We took Reese on It's A Small World and she seemed to like it. We bought her a little Minnie Mouse poncho that she looked pretty cute in and kept her dry from the rain. Really wish it hadn't been raining so we could have enjoyed the full day at Disney Land but I guess we were pretty lucky that Friday was the only day we had rain. We had absolutely beautiful weather the rest or the week and it was so nice to get some sun shine! I think it did us all some good. It was alright though that we were back to the Condo early Friday night so Jesse and I could get a good nights rest to get ready for our full day of driving that we had ahead of us. We got up around 5am and hit the road. It was a down poor of rain as we headed out o...

California Vacation - Day 5 Sea World

Image
I love this picture of Jesse and I in front of the San Diego Temple. I am glad that we were able to stop and take some pictures there. It is such a beautiful place. Sea World was our 5 th stop for the week. Lincoln took all of these photos but I put these of the Dolphins and Shamu because I thought they were absolutely amazing! I just think they are so beautiful. He is extremely talented ! The Shamu show was very fun to watch. It is amazing what they can train those animals to do. After the Shamu show we took the kids over to play in the Elmo play ground. They had some cute rides for the kids and Reese loved playing with all the other kids in the jungle gym.

California Vacation - Day 4 Disney Land ---- Round 2

Image
Wednesday we were back at Disney Land for Round 2. This was one of my favorite days. We went to California Adventure at first. It was the first time that any of us had been there. We rode the Monster Inc ride first and I thought it was a really cute ride. Then we went over to the Bugs Life rides. Reese loved the rides over there. Then we rode the Tower of Terror. It was a really fun ride. It was great we walked onto every ride we wanted to ride. We were able to get in a lot of rides in a really short amount of time. Screaming California was a great ride and this picture is of Logan and I riding it for the third time. I made sure we sat in front so Lincoln could get a good shot of Logan on one of his favorite rides. I'm not sure if he liked this over the Indiana Jones ride but he enjoyed both of them. This was one of the rides in Bug Life and you know how competitive I am....London and I were team 'The Killer' and were were in for the kill in the bumper cars. Look out Br...

California Vacation - Day 3 Universal Studios

Image
We were at Universal Studio Tuesday. Jesse and Reese stayed back at the Condo for the morning while Reese caught up on some much need sleep and Jesse needed to get some work done. When they meet up with us Reese was a whole new little girl. Universal Studio had some of the best rides I thought! The Shrek 4D show was great, the Simpson ride was extremely cool and the Mummy ride was intense! We went on the back lot tour which was very interesting but Reese didn't care much for it. There was alot of stuff going on and some of it kinda scared her. While we were waiting to leave there was a Blues Brother concert going on and Reese loved walking around and dancing. She just looks so Innocent there standing with Chuckie ! I think this is a pretty funny picture. Reese really didn't know what to think about Shrek and was not letting him out of her sight. She didn't want him to get to close. She that was the best picture we could get. That is how she was with most of the Charater...
