Spring time!!

I love the farm life in the spring. Baby calves lambs and puppies! And Kaydence loves ridding the tractor with her papa mark

Easter Idaho Style

 HOPPY Easter!! This year is probably one of very few I have spent not camping with my family. But It was a wonderful time!!! We woke up got bathed and hair and Sunday dresses on for church had breakfast and then we noticed the Easter Bunny had came Saturday night! So we then went on our hunt. After that we ate lunch and went to church. After church John and I got our casual clothes on and took the girls for a walk to the nearby park. We had a great time  just enjoyed the beautiful weather! I am so grateful for Heavenly father and his plan he has for us, his sacrifices have made life so much easier for me to be comfortable with all the trials that come up in life knowing that if I keep trying my best I am ... covered. :)

 D'Enna loved it, as usual happy little thing.

 Kaydence was so cute helping D'Enna find eggs and putting them in the basket.

 The Easter bunny brought Bubbles, John and the girls played outside while I made a quick lunch before church.

 Play Time

The gravel is kind of nice, but doesn't work so well with sandals and toes. ha ha

 John tried to get Kaydence to smile into the sun...... didn't really work. lol

Our Baby D'Enna is one!

What happens when a mom decided she is going to do a simple birthday cake and then gets on pintrest 2 days before the big party?... Stress, mess and too many fun ideas!!! I have fallen in love with the cute little owls that have flooded cyber land. So we ended up with cake pops and D'Enna got her own owl smash cake! 

 Forgot to buy something for eyes... back to the store.

Forgot to put the ears on...

 Finished the owl smash cake and got the cake pops finished.

The mess I made and left(it was 2:30 am.)

The Final treats! minus the ice cream, They were so cute, but i still bit their heads off. :)

So With the way our rental is set up we could have had our party at our own house, but we literally only have 5 chairs besides our couches. So we didn't think everyone could fit. But John's Aunt and uncle live 5 minutes away and was generous enough to lend us there home for the afternoon.  So we had Judy, Grandpa Dan, Papa Mike and Grandma Susan, Grandma and Grandpa kloepfer, Stephanie and Siri , and Kayla Tyson and there baby bean.

Great Grandpa Dan, D'Enna loves to cuddle him.

 Papa Mike! He and Susan came all the way from  Manti to come to her big party. They picked up Kayla and Tyson with them as well. It was so super nice of them to make the drive!!!!! Sorry to all the rest of you we really didn't want you to feel obligated to to come up. If you were wondering why you never got an invite.

 She never really dug into the cake. It was funny to watch her such the bits of frosting off her fingers. She just wanted to eat the starburst flower i made for the owl. Silly girl.

 Stephanie and  Siri.They were at John's aunts house just visiting. Siri is 6 days older that D'Enna so it is all ways fun when they can get together.I think she liked my owl treats the most. ;)

She got super spoiled clothes dolls, cash and books. What more could a 1 year old need!

Texas!!! Wedding and Sea World(with our Daddy)

 We had the best trip.  My cousin Jessica just got married in San Antonio. She was a beautiful bride, I can't wait to see what fun things her and her new Husband Eric do! My Dad and John traveled down  Thursday so they could work a few more days, while the rest of us, Grandma rene, my mom, brother Zack and his family All flew out Tuesday so we could help my Aunt with last minute details before the wedding. Besides the 4 days of rain and 40 degree weather I really had a great time.

What does it take for  8 Adults and 4 kids under 4 to travel??? All this and  more!!! Ha HA, The shuttle guy thought we were NUTS I am sure.

Nothing like having 2 babies passed out in the car when you are alone at a hotel... yup they both ended up waking up By the time I got them out and in the room, and D'Enna thought she had slept for the the night. 2 am bedtime that night.

Sea World

So have you seen a cuter baby? This girl LOVED LOVED LOVED  the dolphin, bird, diving show! She was so cute clapping and squealing  the entire show. 

Pretty sweet camera on my phone. ha ha. She Shamu show still isn't what it used to be when  they trainers swam with the whales. who cares if someone got ate.... ok that might have been terrible.

 You thought these were squeakers, nope children chew toys. Or Maybe D'Enna's is attacking her?

 All us crazy tired kids, Ashley, Carla, Brandy, Mindy is hiding, and McCoy and Atley fast asleep

So what would  Texas be with out some new hair styles? Have you guys seen these crazy curlers, no heat, and they don't pull your hair, I slept ...OK in them and kaydence thought they were fun ALIEN  hairs.

D'Enna's hair is coming in so well! I can't wait to start the games of killer hair styles. 

 So my mom treated all the girls( minus D'Enna too little for the china spa) for manicure or pedicures!!! Kaydence and Atley were so funny. This is Atley getting her piggies painted.

So a few of the bridesmaids asked if I could help with hair( still not sure how I got nominated) But I was super excited to be able to help. Not to mention the dressing room was SSSOOO MUCH FUN!!

So my aunt rented a 15 passenger van to tote all of the relatives around for the wedding since so many of us flew in.  My mom was the designated driver, but this night she got a little crazy with her parking skills! If you can't tell she parked oh 10 feet away from the curb. no big deal in the city, hee hee hee

My cousin has a super awesome  band(by me saying that does it make it lame?) anyway Hardluck Heros look them up!  He didn't play til midnight so we went to Whataburger after and  had a lot of fun making  memories!!!

We had a great night with my cousins at  a Spurs VS Wizards? game. ha ha. the stadium had sweet seats! And the Spurs won.. I guess it was a no brainer but still a great night out.
