My Yard

Every year a bird lays its eggs in our driveway rocks. It is really aggressive and protective. It is fun to watch it's tatices but we feel bad when we bug it to much.
 Daffodils, tulips, poppies, flowering cherry and Ron.

 Eliza is champ at washing the dishes. She really enjoys the time and I am glad that the dishes get rinsed and I know where she is.

Easter in Kolob

 Kolob is so fun and different. We had a picnic and egg hunt. We went on a fun hike and saw an owl. I enjoyed seeing cousins and letting the kids roam around a bit. It has been a good change but still preserves the spirit of the celebration. The place is improtant, but more important is the people and time. I love Easter!

Storehouse Meeting

I always feel the spirit at this meeting. I love all my family so much. I am glad to be a part of this family circle.

Banana Cream Pie

We got Kelly a deep freeze to go hand in hand with the smoker he got for Christmas. It really has been a delicious several months. Kelly is the best! God only know what i'd be without him.

Tea Party

With all of Margaret's talk about party preparations, Eliza wanted to through one of her own. She has a darling little tea party where she set the table and served all her little girly friends. It was so so so cute!
