A few days with Lisa....Haircuts....and cousins!

I went to Thatcher to spend a few days with Lisa while she was there. We stayed out in Solomon with the Herringtons. My parents were in the Bahamas....(Lucky)
Lisa cut the girls hair and I just love their new dew's! We had a great time on the farm watching the cows poop and petting the horses. Also playing in water( wish I could share the pics....but they were naked):)
I just love lisa and we stayed up late talking and running around with our little ones. Thanks for hosting us Nona!

Liv loved playing with cousin Courtney.

Rommie Reunion!!!!

The girls of Dobson Town Center #251!! Back together again! (Almost all of us...we missed you Kindy!)

I lived while these girls during a crucial time in my life. I was just recently divorced and felt very insecure about myself and my testimony. These Amazing women...and I mean AMAZING....helped me through the hardest times. I love them all so much! Jennie always had such wise counsel. Cara was such a great example of righteous living. Jen B. her testimony shined through it all. Leslie was tons of fun!
Lisa was the most Christlike loving person....I just them all! And Sweet Kindy always had an ear to listen
Lisa and Cara (my cousins) were coming to town and so was Jen Noble from the Co! So we got together at my house this past week. It was so great to see everyone as sweet mothers in ZION! I so Wish I had a scanner so I could share pictures from the past..I know all of the girls were placed in my life for a specific purpose. It was so great to see everyone!!






We also had a few other friends and family to come and see lisa and cara...thanks for coming everyone! It was a great party!!

Easter Pics & More

Happy Easter Everyone! Easter Sunday was a little crazy to say the least. Doug got sick and I had to sing in the choir 3 times and direct the primary in Sacrament Meeting. So I found my friend Jess to sit by and when I turned around my girls were gone. I ran around the whole inside of the church for about 5 minutes. I was just about to start going around the outside when someone brought them in from the parking lot! YIKES! I was sick to my stomache! Little liv loves to escape and thinks it's such a fun game....UG! A colored all over the walls during the meeting with crayon (it came off though). Just a super busy overwhelming day for me. Most days are NOT like this though. I don't me to sound like a grounchy mean mom. But I was done with them when we got home.
We then went to My sweet Sis-in-Laws for a super yummy Easter Feast with a Honey baked ham. This is her front yard. I took pics last year here too in their Easter dresses...I will have to go dig those out.
I just Love My Audree's face....she is such a sweetie.




Livvy wasn't quite in the mood that day. A few quick stories about her. She has decided she wants to potty train. She will tell us to Go out! When she is on the pot. And I went to the bathroom earlier ( with her in the room of course...how could she leave my side) and she said, "Mom that's my job!"






Easter Egg hunt in our backyard....check out the adorable baskets my mom made. I had one just like it when I was little.


O was scared to go outside b/c she thought that the easter bunny was out there hiding the eggs...silly one.


Here's Dougie's new work truck and uniforms...I think he looks so cute! This week was slow and he is recoving from an ear infection so he is a litlle discouraged about the business so far, but I know it will pick up.




The girls got, Watercolors, Sidewalk Chalk, and Fingerpaints, from the Easter Bunny. Audree LOVED it! She is such a tactile girl. She loves water and sand and smooshing her dinner food.


I told them to smile big.....this is what I get....don't you just love it!


One last story...and some of you have heard this....
Liv has been climbing out of her crib recently. It hasn't been a big deal until this week. On Tues. she woke up at 6 am and woke up everyone else. Then for naps I layed her down at 1pm and she came out of her room and 1:50. I took her back in there and told her to go back to bed. 3 tries later, I locked her in. She undid the lock and went and opened to the door to where Audree was sleeping. Grr...I was so ticked! I wasn't feeling well that day and really wanted a nap when they were napping. So I went down to Babies R Us that day and spent an outrageous amount of money on a crib tent.

It zips her shut in there and she can't climb out. The first day she liked it...the second day she screamed...."I'M STUCK!!" But she has been sleeping all through the night 12 hours and one 3 hour nap everyday since...so it's been a great investment....
That's all...:)

Vacation in Mexico.....

LONG POST WITH LOTS OF PICTURES!
We are back to reality. We just spent a week with our good friends the Allen's. They have a time share down in Rocky Point about 20 minutes outside of town. It was not at all what I was expecting....this place was fancy!

We spent our days swimming in the huge indoor/outdoor pools. Walking and building sand castles on our own private beach and playing games at night (while the kiddos slept.)
It really was paradise and went by too quick. I got a pedicure with my friend Jess while we were ther and we went into town a few times. Also we went to Church on Sunday and I got to play the piano in Spanish.(Wink, wink) Those days of Sight reading the notes came in handy b/c I couldn't read what the song was.

I forgot my memory card and my sweet Sis-in-Law Allison took in to our friends brother who came down on Sunday. Thanks so much Alli! And I still didn't take enough pictures. I wish I had a pic of our friends that we went with...and the girls by the pool. I never took my camera down there...bummer.
Oh And Liv gave us many scares...she would run out of the room when we weren't looking and run down to the pool..yikes! The joys of 2 year olds!

We got sick on the way home and have been trying to recover all weekend. Doug is officially in business too. YEA! Call us if you need a tune up:)


This is the view from our room


Walking in from the ocean..


Monday in the evening


The kiddos loved burying their feet in the sand....I would then ask "Where's O's feet?" They loved pulling them out and showing you! The little guy on the right is our friend Kirkland. He is the same age as the girls...such a cute kid!


Whee!




Trying something new....I like it.




Outside the box for me....playing with full sun...


Me and My sweetie on the beach. We had so much fun being there with our litlle family.



The Dirt Mall....well it's paved now...but we went there in the middle of the week for fun. There is so much breakable stuff it's not even funny....but we had a good time though. Ate a churro and then on the road to a taco stand for lunch. YUMMO!


We let Liv choose the turtle that she watned it. She went back like 5 times to switch. When we crossed the street she saw some more bobble head turtles and wanted to switch hers....this is the reaction when we told her no!


With Their souveniers(Sp)....they made quick the ruckus walking up and down the street.



Isn't she pretty...I love the colors here...I wish I had more willing models...


Liv petting the ceramic dog...there were so many things to break here.


Audree LOVED laying in the sand. She loves putting food in her hair and fingerpainting too....


We brought some kites and someone gave us one...too bad I cut the kite off when I was taking the picture....grrr.



Little Livvy Loo likes to snuggle...she wants to hold you all day long...



Relaxing


The best picture out of a few hundred....My sweet friend Jess took this...Thanks Jess!


The girls love spinning...
