Easter Sunday

Easter 2012:
We had a beautiful day.
We were lucky enough to spend the day with the Osburn boys and love them.
Went to church
Played at the park
 and spent the evening with the family having an Easter egg hunt and eating lots of food.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Easter Week Festivities:

It started with Gardner Village and their Easter egg hunt:
{Love Whitney's outfit?? She is pretty independent these days and will only wear what she wants to.. and it almost always has to be a skirt or a dress. I guess there could be worse things. ;)}
 

Engh's Easter egg hunt:
 

Grandma Donna hosted her 1st annual Easter egg hunt at her house for all her great grandbabies:
 

Gma Donna's:
 

And we ended at our house dyeing Easter eggs for the Easter bunny to hide:

 

City Creek

City Creek is awesome!
Great stores... Fun water features... and my favorite attraction.. the Chick Fila in the food court! Can't get much better than that!

 

 

Recent Highlights

Our friend Darren turned 30:
 

I turned 27:
 

My mom will be turning 30ish :) on Wednesday so we had a pre- birthday dinner for her (and me):
 

And Whitney had about the most dang cutest preschool crafts for the month of March. It was all about ocean animals. Here are only just a few. SO stinkin cute! If anyone is looking for a good preschool teacher for next year in the Sandy-ish area, Ms Doyle is fantastic!
 

San Diego

We went to San Diego and tagged along with Danny on a business trip. We went with the Sean and Shell Davis clan and had a great time!  For the first week we stayed at a beach house in Oceanside. The kids had such a fun time playing at the beach. The first day that we went out Whit kept saying over and over, "This is the best day ever!" I love her.

 

 

All tuckered out. I love sleeping kiddos!

 

The many cheesy smiles from my lil man. I can't get enough of him!
 

 

We went  to Old Town in San Diego, walked around and went to the Mormon Battalion Center. Way cool and such a fun atmosphere.
 

DISNEYLAND
I had really wanted to go to Disneyland but had a hard time selling Danny on the idea. However, once he found out that the Neilson family was going he was all in! We tagged along with them and had a blast.
 Although we got drenched from the rain, it's still the happiest place on earth! I LOVE DISNEYLAND! And it's 10 x's funner with kids. Whit smiled ear to ear the whole time and they both loved riding on all the rides. With the rain, came fewer people and short lines so that was fantastic! I can't wait to go back.

 

 

 

 

We went  to La Jolla and saw a lot of sea lions just loungin around and we also walked around the San Diego temple.
 

More beach play
 

 

 

We went to Belmont Park
 

At the end of our trip we stayed in a hotel for a couple of days while the boys worked.
Hank's sleeping quarters was the bathroom. ..He didn't seem to mind. :)
 

Our view from the beach house.. pretty amazing!

Weekly Update

This last week..
 We missed dad a lot and skyped often.

Once a month we get together with my highschool friends for a playdate with the kiddos. Alissa hosted this month and the kids had fun playing together. I have loved getting together with my friends. It is fun to catch up on everyone's lives!

Whitney's preschool teacher, Aubrey Doyle, is a really good friend of mine in our ward. She is a fabulous teacher and they always come home with the cutest preschool creations. Here are just a couple of the preschool crafts she made this week:

Our family of 3.. missing Danny but we will see him in a little over a week! Can't wait!

Hank loves being a princess.

Hank found the best spot in the house to drink his ba... right on top of Muffins!

We went to Jump Around Utah (a bounce place) with the family and had a good time!

Kristen hosted our monthly girls night out. It was low key and intimate and the food was delicious. Both kids got to come and Whit was so excited all day long. I don't think she has ever been to one so she was pretty pumped- and really good!

We had a slumber party.

Hank lasted about 5 minutes and then was off. 

I lasted about 1 hour then went to bed.

Jess woke up about 1ish and headed downstairs.

And Ms. Whit she lasted the longest but still eventually ended up in my bed.

But the winner was 'Scala' the pink horse who slept on her pillow the whole night!!

Zoe had her first experience taking a bath with Whit and Hank. I think she liked it!

She is soooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!
