Horsies...

Brian's aunt Shauna was in town this week so we went out to his aunt Judy's to visit with everyone and the bonus was that Judy has horses. Paige love, love, loves horses {she takes after her mom} and we showed them to Brayden for the first time. They both got a kick out of them...this first picture the horse had been nibbling on Brayden's hand, he thought that was pretty cool.



Unfortunately for us, these horses aren't gentle enough for little ones to ride...and no matter how much I beg-Brian still won't let me get a horse. Hmmmph! So we will just have to enjoy these for now...and any of you that have or know of someone who has horses we can ride let me know we would LOVE to go any time! ;)

Easter Pictures....

We too had a great time this last weekend celebrating Easter...

We dyed eggs...

We hunted for the dyed eggs...Brayden tasted his...and dyed his mouth too. {Thankfully it wasn't permanent}
We also went on 3 Easter egg hunts....one at the SLCM hunt, one at Papa and Bobo's and one at Grandma Coo-Coo's. It was a ton of fun!

And this last picture is what Paige looked like after she attempted to eat ALL of her chocolate bunny.

It was Brayden's first Easter so it was a lot of fun to see him during all of the activities...but the REAL excitement was with Paige. She is really into holidays and doing activites...so thanks to our families who made this Easter a really great one!

Bear Lake...

We went on a snowmobiling trip with some family to Bear Lake. We got to enjoy being away, swimming and snowmobiling...here are some pictures from the weekend.
Brian, Paige and Brayden in the kiddie pool. Thankfully both swimming pools were heated.

Mom in on the action...Paige giving her approval.

My self portrait...everyone else was in the pool.

Brian goofing off....he LOVES to swim, so thankfully Paige is a fish and also enjoys it. I mean I like to swim, but those two could live in the water!

Here's Paige playing and swimming all on her own. Man she is growing up WAY too fast!

Brayden had so much fun, he fell asleep. What a sweetie pie! {What ya don't know is that this little guy is such a trooper, he has RSV/Bronciolitis...which is why he's in the pool because it was very humid in there and good for him. So thankfully we were the only ones in the pool and were able to keep the water off of his head and away from his ears....he is such a good sport!}

Now for snowmobiling....this is Brian, doesn't he look like such a stud!?!?!

In case you had a hard time figuring out who this beauty is....its ME!

Here's what the rest of us did while the other's were out on the snowmobiles. We hung out in Jenny's new truck....they had a dvd player in there which was great for the kids. We tubed and pulled the kids behind the snowmobiles until they were frozen to the core...then they hung out in the truck while we played. It was fun! This is Jenny hanging out with the kids, it was nice to have someone to trade off with the kids, with Brayden not feeling well and all...he stayed bundled up in the truck the whole time. Which he didn't mind because he got tons of attention from all the kids when he wasn't sleeping. ***NOW I'm ready for SPRING!!!***

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

Did the Leprechaun's come to your house??? They came to ours....and we tried to catch them, but we couldn't. So they left us some treats...and turned our MILK green, along with the water in both of the toilets. Silly Leprechauns! We hope you have a Happy St. Patty's Day and that you wore GREEN so that you don't get pinched.

Stop...drop...and ROLL!!!

The Fire Fighters {Captain Price and Fireman Steve} came to Paige's preschool to teach them fire safety...
They each got a Fire hat and a pencil...Paige got the coveted purple one.

Paige shared her fire hat with Brayden....isn't he the cutest dang fireman you've ever seen?!?!

Paige was the volunteer to help show the kids how to "Stop, drop and roll..."

Here's Paige covering her eyes...and ROLLING!

Paige and J.J. driving the fire truck

Here's the rest of the class posing with Fireman Steve aka Scooter on the fire truck.

Here's Paige with Captain Price and Fireman Steve...she thought they were really neat. {As soon as blogger will let me I'll post a couple pictures of the fireman in their fire suits.}

Say Cheese...

Paige LOVES to have her picture taken {for the most part} and is always insisiting on being in every shot I take...AND I love to take her picture. So the other day we went outside while Brayden was sleeping and took some pictures of just PAIGE. Hope ya like em'!

It's not like I don't have thousands of pictures of her already, but here are some updated ones of JUST her. What a doll....gotta love that cute face and those GORGEOUS blue eyes!
