How I Plan to Turn Our Ugly Doorway, into Something Pretty!

Our doorway is ugly. It's cement... there isn't really anything pretty about cement... So I'm going to change it!

For those who haven't seen it, this is what it looks like:


We are using my MIL's old wash bins, and this is what we have so far:





I know... It's not much to look at YET. But wait until the flowers start coming in. We already have a few:


I've got some more ideas on how to add color. Stay tuned!

Bubbles

Dax got bubbles in his Easter basket, and couldn't wait to get outside to try them:





Has anyone NOT seen Kellen's Christmas gift? This is her:


She enjoys playing with the bubbles as much as Dax!



Boo Boo was feeling a little left out of the action, so Morgan included him in some of the fun.



You would not believe how long we were out there doing this... That kid is addicted to bubbles!

Happy Easter!

Here are some pics from today's Easter Egg Hunt:














Happy Easter Everyone!

Decorating Easter Eggs... With A Toddler


I was all excited to color eggs this year with Dax. He's really been into the art thing lately, and I thought he'd LOVE this. Man... Was I wrong, or what?

This is what I was dealing with:


So not fun. But then, he discovered the stickers that came with the dye kit!


Once I showed him how things worked, he was much more happy about the whole process. This is his favorite egg... If you don't know the 'Don't' story... just know it's the first word he learned how to spell, and that's what he told me he wanted on his egg...


The green was his favorite


His daddy was more then happy to help!





Hope you enjoyed the photo's!

 Happy Easter!

What I wouldn't give for one more day of....

California sun! It's not too cold here in Utah, but it's not as nice as it was in Cali!! We went to the park today and ended up a muddy mess! Dax had fun though... typical boy!




{he's looking for the ducks}


'Hey mom! Did you know there is mud all over this place?'


'Yep... look what chasing you has done to my shoes!'



These flowers are all over.




The only thing better then throwing bark.....

Are YOU ready....?

FOR SOME PICTURES??

I have about a million from our California trip. I already posted some to facebook, but I know not everyone gets on there, so over the next few days, I'll post them on here. :0)

Lets start with these:

The first day we were in California, we stopped by the softball field to say hi to all of the players!




Dax flipped over the Geotrax my brother left at Aunt Mary's


I got to spend some time with my favorite niece, and the weather was PERFECT for outside play time!





Dax can't get his converse on by himself yet, so every time he wanted to go outside, he'd slip my shoes on.



Tea time! My Aunt let him put water in the tea cups, so this was his new favorite game...


Everyone had to participate:


And when I said it was his new favorite, I wasn't kidding. He talked everyone into playing tea party at least once:


Well, that's all for now. Be looking for more pics over the next few days :0)
