The Bunny is Coming

As usual Easter was filled with fun for all!

"Do I have to decorate eggs this year. It's boring!" Kayla says as soon as I announced what we were doing. I responded in my usual "moms" voice with,"Yep, there is no option in participating with this activity!"

Yes, in the picture above she is smiling because she enjoyed every minute:) A few minutes after we got started she was counting all the eggs to make sure everyone had an even amount. When I reminded her that she didn't even want to participate so why was she so concerned she said,"Well I forgot how much fun it is!" Ya.....that's what I thought!

It's so much fun doing it with the kids at these ages. Thy put more thought into them and the conversations are always so entertaining:) James and Haylie made Ella, Grandma Anna and Jimmy special ones. They all turned out so cute.

Bandits

 Bandits!

What a great hockey team James was able to be apart of this season! The Bandits were considered the "underdogs" but boy did they prove everyone wrong. They all played so hard and learned so much during the season. James was so sad to see the season come to an end. Everyone met up at Peter Piper Pizza for a little end of the season party. Coach Dave surprised all the kids with signed hockey pucks from the Coyotes and a trophy!

Our newest addition

Haylie's Birthday Party

 Haylie turned the big FIVE!

But that was back in December! LOL With the cabinets being refinished we held off having her party so we could have it at home. BUT....that didn't happen. Thanks to Kim we able to have her party at a park in Power Ranch. It was a perfect place and the kids had a fantastic time! 

Haylie chose her theme this year and it was a Cowgirl/Jessie Theme. I let Haylie pick out what she wanted on her cake and with the help of Kayla she thought her cake turned out perfect! Thanks to Grandma Barnett for making the tags to go in the treat bags that were just amazing. I couldn't have thrown this party if it wasn't for Grandma Barnett & Grandma Anna. Thanks for all your help:)

 

Haylie really wanted a new bike and of course Grandma Anna surprised her with the exact bike she wanted!

Some random pics from the party.

 

Thanks to all our friends who came to Haylie's party and made it such a special day!
