Spring Break Activities

We had such a great week of fun activities with all our friends!! The kids were highly entertained! One day we did shopping and lunch at the mall..another day we had a pool day...another day we headed to the Irvine Park and did horse back riding, the train, the zoo and a picnic in the park. It was such a blast! Then to top it all off we did the bounce house place where the kids were set free to jump wild and that they did! It was a fun week and I was exhausted by the end of it. We discovered that Brinley loves to trot now while riding the horse and is quite the rider...she must take after her Grandpa Fenn. Dylan loved swimming around like a fish. I think he's going to be an even better swimmer then Brinley and that is hard to top. He just loves going under water and holding his breath and is not scared of anything...with or without his floaties he thinks he can swim on his own. It's going to be a rough summer keeping an eye on that kid...luckily I won't have to worry about Brinley:)He also loved jumping in the bounce houses and still loves balls of any shape or size. They're both getting so big and it's soo fun now to see Dylan interact with his big sister...oh how they both adore each other:)It's hard to believe another one is on the way! Good thing we call Brinley our little mother hen she doesn't let Dylan out of her reach or sight she's constantly taking care of him...even I sometimes get tired of it and we all know when Dylan's had enough...he'll start to bite her:)I don't blame him...hey at that point she deserves it right?



















Happy Easter!!!

We had a great Easter with the kids and Drew's family. It started with the kids coming down to find their Easter baskets of toys and candy. While Brinley search the whole house for Easter Eggs...Dylan discovered that M&M's at 7 in the morning is the perfect breakfast:) He LOVED all the candy and was on a sugar high all day long. Brinley on the other hand didn't care for the candy inside the eggs it was all about the egg hunt! Later that afternoon after yummy homemade cinnamon rolls and conference we headed to Drew's parents house where all the cute Easter games and festivities began and oh what fun the cousins had playing egg relays, scavenger hunts and filling their buckets with candy only using tongs! Brinley loved her new lady bug kite and flew it high in the sky...she couldn't of been prouder:) We ended the day with a yummy dinner and a touching video on the Savior and the true meaning of Easter. It was such a special Easter Day:)





















Grandparent Visit

It's always fun when Grandma and Grandpa Walker come to visit us! The kids love to play with them and get tons of attention and of course I love it too! We can't forget Uncle Matt and it makes it so much nicer that we have Uncle Tanner and Aunt Lindsey living by us too. It just so happened they came to visit on the tail end of Aunt Sara's visit....so needless to say it was a big family gathering minus Uncle Scott who was at school. We missed you Scott:)We had a great time though and the weather couldn't be any better..thanks for the memories:)
