Green Stroller

That is how Clara sits in her stroller. So she can suck on her feet.

New stuff

Clara's cute new highchair and Kelly's new computer! They are awesome. The screen is my favorite part of the new computer. It is so sharp and I love the wide screen.

My 2nd Apartment

I have complained a lot about it but our second apartment hasn't been all bad. I like that we can walk to the library, church, great harvest, and the green way. I have really liked our ward too. The Beetle is our neighbors and most of the time here the for rent sign is up.

Jackson

This is my sister's handsome baby Jackson. He just turned one. Big eyes and 6 teeth make a radiant smile. I love the white shirt and tie. So refined. He will be ready to pass the sacrament when the time comes.

Olivia

Cute Baby Olivia. What a sweetheart. She is going to be loved and protected so well by all her 4 older brothers. She is the new baby of my good friend Gina who was the Young Women Pres when I was the 2nd councilor.

Forsythia

Salt Lake is beautiful. Pocatello is still bare and brown. Parts of my family tried to go down to Thanksgiving Point to see the tulip festival but it was insanely windy. These were taken in my Mom's yard. Forsythia bush, chubby hand with dimples, and Clara with her bored face and looking very casual.

Blueberry Pie Birthday

Kelly is the greatest husband in the world! He doesn't like cake as much as pie so I made him a blueberry pie today. Raw ingredients on the bottom and the finished product on the top! Happy Birthday Kelly! I love you.

Feathers

I am a worrier. I have been working on putting my trust in the Lord and not stressing about money, food, cloths, and where/how we are going to live. I went out on my back porch to take some photos and I found that a pigeon had been killed and eaten. There were feathers all over the place. It was kind of similar to this post. Like last time I though of Luke and Matthew.

Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father knowing. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?

I know that the Lord is mindful of everyone and cares deeply for us. Don't worry.

This darling girl is part of our Family Home Evening group. She is three months and just a sweetheart. She has the longest eyelashes and big beautiful eyes, obviously.

Sprouting

Peas Basil on top, Morning Glory on bottom.
Morning Glory, Basil, Peas, and Forget me Nots have sprouted. I am so excited. I know it is early if they don't make it is OK. I plan to just keep them all in pots and inside for a while.

Danny & James

My Nephews. Handsome boys don't you think.

on Brookshire Road

I like all the different directions the lines on the house were going with the round shapes of the fake plant. The second is of Tulip leafs. I also thought the Dusty Miller looked really cool. Doctor Seuss-ish.

Blue Eyes

I made it a point to wait for a while before I posted another photo of Clara. I doubt that I have waited long enough but I tried.

Zion

It was a beautiful day at Zion. We have been Eastering in Zion since before my father was born. The same spot, same day and mostly the same food. Over the years we have come to feel a sense of ownership over the park. It is like our back yard. The first photo is our family at the grotto picnic area. The second a type of desert oak, I forgot the name. The last photo is of lichen; it is a indication of good air quality.

Egg Hunt

My family has this tradition of taking photos on the steps of my Grandmas house before we let the kids loose for the egg hunt. Clara cryed every time we put her down to take photos. Back to front, right to left. Tate, James, Ty. Sydney, Kassie, Caroline, Maryn, Jackson. Ben, Seth, Clara, Carter.

Coral

These are things that I found at my Grandma house. I think coral is very fascinating and beautiful.

Hunting Eggs

Basket

This was my plan with they wheat grass. The eggs kind of sink into the grass more then I expected but I think it looks really cute.

Egg Dying

My good friend Tosha Williams and I dyed Easter eggs today. So fun!!! Tosha taught me a new technique. I love my Jackson Pollack egg and the volcano egg. I think the dinosaur egg (red and yellow) is cool too. So bright and so fun.

Cupcake

For Young Women's we had a planning meeting. We talked about the activities that we had had, asked if they liked them and planned new activities. I brought these cupcakes. Green for St. Patrick's Day.
