Happy Birthday Macie and Mason!

Hard to believe that 3 years ago this month our family grew by three precious bundles of joy! Audrey, Macie and Mason! Now they are turning 3! Amazing! (Audrey is still in Spokane for another few weeks... then they will be home too!)

Today was Macie's 3rd Birthday... Mason's is next Sunday. So we decided to celebrate them together!

Kaylie's Shower

Here is the beautiful Bride to Be!

Our beautiful Kaylie is getting married! Hard to believe! I think she was just barely a baby screaming all the way home from Lake Powell in her car seat! If we didn't like Bryce so much...we might have to lock her up!

Bountiful Baskets!

Lizzy taught me a new trick today! She called last Monday and had me get online and order a "Bountiful Basket" for $15.00. It is a co-op of people that buy produce together. I had never heard about it...but she heard about it in Cedar. We had to be there at 8:45 to pick it up. It was well worth the effort!

Here are the volunteers setting it up for us.

Baskets Baskets and more baskets!


We each got a fruit basket and a vegetable basket!
For $15 we got bananas, apples, black berries, pineapple, cantaloupe, potatoes, carrots, broccoli, chard, lettuce, tomatoes, and more things I can't remember! Starting in 2 weeks it pick up will be every week in PG at the Lincoln Academy. Remember to get on line Monday at 4:00 to sign up! You can also get 5 loaves of whole grain bread for $10.00 more. I LOVED IT!

Happy Birthday to my Beautiful Taylor

Hard to believe that Tay is turning 15!
She is a beautiful young woman and I am so
proud to be her "Granny" ! Love you Tay!

April Fools! Maelynn is Here!

Grandma ~ Mae ~ Hal

All of us....

Matt made Grandma show off her muscles... 79 years old and she looks like this! She puts many men to shame!
She used to come over and the kids would get their friends to arm wrestle her and she would whip them every time! Hilarious!

Easter Egg Hunt!

What happened to those warm days we used to have for the Easter Egg Hunt? The last two years have been so COLD! Once again we hid all the eggs in the house... Still really fun!

I have lots of pics of my kids on these stairs...now it is the some of our grandkids! Brings back a lot of memories...
I did something different this year... I bought prizes instead of candy. The kids each got coupons in their eggs....for different prizes. I think the moms were happier and it was actually cheaper than ALL THAT CANDY! However it took a lot of thinking on my part... The kids loved it and it may become a new tradition!

Macie and Mason hunting!

All the eggs.. FOUND~ !

Choosing prizes!

Too much to choose from...
