Spring Time

Spring is in the air!
I love spring time.
I love that you get to enjoy the great weather outside, smell the blossoms, AND you get to color coordinate with your family on Easter Sunday. :)
This years edition was brought to you by Grandma Kimmy. She made beautiful matching easter dresses for all her grand daughters... ALL NINE!!! She did a wonderful job. Thank you so much Grandma Kimmy!!


As you can see Lydia wasn't to excited about the photo session. It was her nap time.
~~~~~~~~
A couple weeks ago we had the chance for all the "Brimhalls" to go camping. Keith and Kim Brimhall. Chad and Caskie Brimhall with their kids; Camden, Kaja, Ryker and Avie.
And US...Blake, April, Maycee and Lydia Brimhall.

It was a Blast! We learned A LOT.
We learned Maycee really likes to ride the quads. (thats her in the back)
We learned Maycee has some sort of power struggle with Avie...... Sorry Avie. I'm sure some day you two will be best friends. (Avie and Maycee together on the quad)
We also learned that you should never turn your head while going around a corner, ESPECIALLY when there is a shear cliff on the other side...... Right David?

And also that you should never give the quad to much gas when loading in the trailer.... right Dallin?

And that we should never throw rocks at vehicles.... right Grandpa Keith?

The garden is plentiful!

We Helped dad fix a busted pipe. Since that pipe was fixed, about 2 weeks ago, it has since busted again in another place. I Four-see(?) our project list getting longer....

~~~~~~~~

Here is something FUN! My scanner wasn't working so I had to take a picture of a picture. Results... A fuzy picture of Blake when he was nursery age. Saw this the other day and realized how much him and Maycee look alike.
What do you think?

And here is more of Maycee vs. Lydia...
I think they look like sisters but are starting to develop their own look.
~~~~~~~~~~

Just an FYI: We are taking a trip to Farmington this weekend. We have appointments with administration counselors, college professors, and financial aid advisors at San Juan College to get all of Blake's schooling squared away and hopefully have a better idea of what to expect come August. We also have a couple different rentals that we plan to look at, hopefully we can get a better idea of where we will live while we are there. We are also hoping to visit some family and get acquainted with them. And Also, I think there is a really good chance that we will check out the local Olive Garden there as well, make sure its just like the one here.

I think that Blake and Maycee look so much alike. I never thought that before. Have fun in Farmington, so excited for this adventure for you guys. :)

April, you are such a sweet Mommy! You made the girls look so cute Easter morning with their hair bows and Maycee's hair looked so cute! It's coming for you too, little Lydia!
Grandma Kimmy is amazing! The dresses she made are so adorable! She is an inspiration to me! She truly loves her family, and shows it by the sweet works of service she gives to each one of you!
