Cake Decorating Classes

Melody and I took cake decorating classes at Micheal's and these are the cakes that I made. It was fun to learn a new skill and I've already put those skills to use when making Evie's birthday cake. I look forward to my next cake. It's messy work, but I think it's a fun thing to know how to do. I'm not the greatest, but I don't think I'm half bad. :-)

Happy Birthday Evelyn

It has been one amazing year, I can't believe it's gone by so fast. Evelyn has brought so much joy into our lives. The boys absolutely adore her and she adores them. She is full of smiles, laughs and lots of love. Happy birthday to our beautiful little girl.

Easter Pics

Easter at my parents house was fun. Is was raining the day we celebrated so the Easter Egg hunt was done in the house. The kids still had a good time. Avery playing with his sock.

Ethan with his easter basket.

Hyrum showing off his eggs.

Evie trying really hard to get that candy out of the darn egg. She just couldn't figure out how everyone else was doing it.

Jenna got a lot of eggs.

Uncle Joel bonding with Avery.

Emma had a great time hunting eggs. Here she is opening her egg all by herself.

The Easter bunny put stickers in the eggs this year and Kendal loved it.

Daddy holding a very happy baby girl.

Cousins hanging out on the steps counting their eggs.

Mama trying to get baby girl to sleep.

My Camera is fixed!

Here's Evie hanging out on the kitchen counter while we were doing the dishes. She got a hold of the apple and started sucking away. She thought is was pretty funny.

The first cold day we had this winter. I had to get a picture of Evie all bundled up.

My boys! Gotta love 'em.

Evie has started pulling herself up and walking around the furniture. She can stand on her own now, but hasn't gotten to the point of taking those first steps. We'll keep you posted.

Evie loves this thing. She will crawl around with it hanging out of her mouth. She just chews on the rubber end.

Here is a picture of Evie crawling. Did I tell you she was crawling now. She has been since right after Thanksgiving. Course my camera was broke and I didn't get a picture of her first time, but I will get her walking. She is all over the place now. She is learning how to open cupboard doors and loves playing with everything as long as it is something she shouldn't be playing with. She is a very happy little girls as long as she isn't too terribly sick. Which she has been the past week. We are very happy to have her as part of our family.
