Easter!

We had a pretty good Easter. The kids really loved what the Easter Bunny brought them. We just stayed here at home for the weekend so it was kind of a quiet Easter. Sometimes that is kind of nice. I love this Holiday because it is a time to reflect on the great gift our Savior gave us. I am so thankful for him and to know that because of him we will all be resurrected and live together forever. What a wonderful message of hope that is living here in such a dreary world where Satin is really getting his licks in on the family. I'm just thankful to be a member of Christ's church and have such great family surrounding me. I love all of you guys!Breanna got just what she asked for a Princess bike!
Taylor loves his T-ball set.
What some cuties!

Pres. Hinckley


I just love this picture. It's one of my favorite ones of Pres. Hinckley. I just love the fact that he never used his cane. He was such a great prophet, I miss him.

How Much Are You Worth?

I saw this link on one of my friends blogs and thought it was cute. See how much we stay at home Mom's are really worth and what we should get payed. It's just fun to see because I never really thought about what we might be worth I always thought it would be a lot. Now this proves it!

Why Can't They Make These WORK?

I guess Taylor is just too smart and it might have something to do with him getting older now, I don't know, but he is still at that stage where he is always in the fridge and pantry because he thinks he is hungry 24/7. So I bought these fancy child locks and was so proud of myself for out smarting him but I had another thing coming if I thought I could out smart such a mischievous little boy. Ha Ha Ha! How it should work to keep the kids out!
What it looks like when Taylor wants something in the fridge!
Yeah he can open these too! Do you like the little smudge of ketchup on the door jam? This pantry door has a lot of traffic going in and out.

My Little Goof Ball!



Here is my little goof ball. He is always making funny faces so I finally got some of them on camera. Kids are so fun!!!

Quick trip to San Diego!




Me and Justin were invited to go to California with his parents and brother to look at a semi truck for his Dad's business. We thought it would be a fun time to get out. My parents watched the kids so we got a little breather. We left Friday night and came back Sunday afternoon so it was kind of quick but we enjoyed it along with the company. But of course I forgot my camera and so now I can't post a bunch of cool pics and I'm really sorry about that. It's those darn Cobb Webb's in my brain getting in the way again. The highlight of the trip was to go see the U.S.S. Midway museum. Located in the Beautiful San Diego Bay. Me and Justin had already seen it but Justin's parents and Jeremiah (his brother) hadn't, so we had to show them how cool it was. I have posted a few pics of it. This ship is huge! It was so awesome. Those of you who are going to San Diego sometime in the future have to take the time and see this amazing battleship carrier. There were also a lot of jets, helicopters and airplanes that were really cool. Here are just a few fun facts about it that will just blow your mind!
