Easter 2011

I don't have too many pictures because I ran out of batteries, but I do have a few pictures of the kids dyeing Easter eggs.

Having fun dyeing Easter eggs.


Daisy loves pink!


Are prettiest eggs ever!


The kids wanted to dye more eggs, but we were all out, so they died rocks (which we have plenty of)!


We always have a great time hunting for candy eggs at Aunt Cindy's house!

Walt had started out real slow when he began looking for eggs, then he got a hang of things and then it clicked and he started running and screaming. He got so excited he started jumping up and down and all his eggs came flying out of his basket. It was too funny!

We had to go to my friend Mel's after church Sunday to get our traditional Easter Sunday Dress picture. Mel made Hanna and Daisy's little dress covers, thanks again Mel you're the best!

Jensen Family Fun

Jeff and Cindy Jensen Family came for a visit. Even though they just live in Vegas, we rarely get to spend much time together, because my sister-in-law Cindy is extremely busy with her private school http://www.journeyeducation.org/
They came out on a Saturday and we went to Ash Meadows. We walked along the trail, the kids played in the reservoir and we saw some pup fish and a craw fish. We went back home had dinner, dessert, Uncle Jeff did a Gatorade test tasting, and we watched Hoodwink.

They stayed the night, came to church with us, had dinner and vegged with us. I am bummed that I didn't take many pictures of our fun "Jensen" family night together, because we had a great time! We need to make it a tradition!

Our Weekend

Me, my mom, Hanna, Van and Daisy went to CA for the weekend while Danny stayed home with Max and Walt. We wanted to save money and not drive 2 cars and Max had been having a rough week so that is the way we split it.

While in CA we went to my cousin's daughters baptism on Thursday night. On Friday we celebrated my brother Kurt's 40th Birthday. On Saturday I was able to attend my cousin Amy's sealing in the San Diego Temple and later that day we attended her reception.

At the reception my nephew Baxter was playing on the water slide (of course we didn't notice) and in his brand new suit he fell in the pool. He was so cute and it was truly so funny, I couldn't help myself from laughing while my sister was trying to tell him that was a naughty thing to do. We had a great weekend. While I was in CA Danny and the boys were busy. They built this triple bunk bed, cool huh?! They put in a water softener we just got for almost free and they built a box for it to sit on and put up new lights in the laundry room. It was a wonderful surprise to come home to. Maybe I should go out of town more often.:)

Our Big Helper

Walt is our little helper. He's the one always wanting to help clean; he vacuums, he'll grab me the broom when needed, refill bathroom garbage bags, clean windows, pick up the backyard toys and even wash the dishes.

Yes, he's washing a knife:-
Walt is also our biggest mess maker! He is just a busy, curious little boy that likes to play, make messes, discover his world and thankfully (currently) enjoys cleaning too.
