Where to start?!?

So much to feel you in on!

Maycee, lately, has been loving this outfit. She calls it her "super spin" outfit. She loves to put it on and twirl and spin all over the house. (for those familiar with Little Einsteins, she thinks she is June)

We spent St. Patricks day in Snowflake. But before we left, Betty wanted to have a big dinner for us! So a few days before we left Megan and I helped prepare our IRISH/ GREEN feast...
Betty used to own a restaurant. Every time we have a get together she insists on a table cloth and REAL dishes! No disposable is allowed!
a green salad...
Green Chile Dip, and guacamole (not pictured), and honey butter for our...
Irish Brown Bread!
green koolaid/ sherbet mixture....
and for the main coarse.....
CORNED BEEF HASH, which I have never had before yet enjoyed, and veggies...... including cooked cabbage (a must from Betty)
It was a wonderful dinner that turned out very well.... We seam to be having more dinners like that. Betty likes to get together with us. I think she is pretty lonely. We like to have her around though...

Well like I said, St. Patricks day was in Snowflake, mostly for these guys sakes....
This is half the crew. All the brothers and Keith got to enjoy a guided fishing tour for their birthdays all thanx to Mama Kimmy! They had a blast!!! So while they were gone on green day the girls all got to gether with the kids and had our own day of sewing and fun!!!

St. patricks day was also a birthday for the girls little cousin, Miss Kimee Tink!!! She is the cutest little Irish Princess you have ever seen!!!
I made matching bibs for the girls for Kimee Tinks birthday and had to get a picture!
It was a fun Saturday. We had all sorts of little things for the kids to discover and enjoy..... green foot prints from King O'Riley (king of the leprechauns).... green biscuits and gravy for breakfast..... and a scavanger hunt with a pot of gold at the end! It was a fun day!

Here are pictures as promised from the last post.....

"Popcron Trees"




Blake in his birthday get up!!!!
He is sure lovin' to ride!!!
.....and he looks pretty good too :)
This is a fun spring craft I recently made!!!
Had the basket....
got the flowers at a yard sale (they were the wrong color)
painted them....
added grass....
and sewed together a coordinating place mat...


We had an unexpected trip to Round Valley this last weekend....
Blake's sweet sister lost a baby...
We went to show our love and support at the funeral...
It was a sad weekend... but so full of love at the same time. We both have a greater love and understanding of what it means to have an eternal family. I am so grateful myself to have been married in the temple so that I can be with my family forever! We love you Kelepolo's, and are so excited for the chance that we will have to some day really meet Baby Bryce!!!
