Family




While I was packing for the weekend trip to Utah the kids wouldn't get out of the suitcase and thought it was super funny. It was so good to be with all my family and go to women's conference with my mom and sisters. The Prophet was the concluding speaker and when he was leaving the building there was not a dry eye in the stadium. It was a great event to be at and mostly just to hangout with family. I loved seeing my Grandma and Grandpa Rammell too.

Plus I came home to a super happy, healthy family. The kids loved having Phil around all weekend and got to see grandparents. Lyla learned to say "dada" and now notices everytime he walks in the room. So it was a great trip all the way around.

Bubbles




These cups are the BEST bath toys (I should note for anyone that gets the concept of blowing the bubbles.) Lyla drank about a half cup of bath water before getting it. You just put a little baby shampoo in a little water and they can blow bubbles that don't hurt if they get in your eyes.

The destroyer






While Miya and Cannon were helping in the kitchen with the dishes Lyla was busy in another room making the disaster. She is amazingly quiet for pulling things down and out of places. I don't know if you can tell, but in one on the pictures she is finding vaseline and managed to get the lid off. That is when I finally came in the room, because she was laughing so hard as she wiped it everywhere. She is super cute, but quite the little handful right now. I am going to Provo on a sisters outing this weekend and I wish Phil the best of luck with all the kids. We will let you know how it goes.

Spring




So we bought this house in the winter and it is just really fun to see how pretty it is in the spring. I love being outside and even walking the garbage to the road this morning I got these pictures. We have been cleaning out gardens and taking down the dog run and house and still have a ton to do in the yard. Washington is the best during spring and summer. You should all come and visit!!!

Hammers


I took my kids to the hardware store and the lady gave them aprons and wood and asked if we had a hammer for some nails. Phil took them out and let them play around with it. We only had one small injury and it was Cannon getting Miya's finger. I thought that was pretty good for the first real adventure with a hammer.
