Blessing Day

Harlee was blessed last week--April 11, 2010. Grandma Lauri bought her blessing dress and WOW! did she look BEAUTIFUL! Brykn was so cute, too. I bought him a suit and he thought it was fantastic. He couldn't wait to wear his "tie-on" and when it was time to get dressed, he asked Brandon how come Dad's suit has a jacket and his just has a "life-vest". Ha! Out of the mouths of babes!

Dustin blessed Harlee and he did such a nice job--thanks, Dustin!

Here's just a few pics--check back, though, I'm having professional pictures taken tomorrow.

A Bump in the Bed...

I always said I wouldn't let my kids sleep in my bed with me...then, I had kids. Some nights its just a matter of survival--stick the kids in the bed and GO TO SLEEP! Unfortunately Harlee seems to have made herself quite comfy ("compy" as Brykn says) in my bed. She looks so little in our big king-sized bed. It's like she's just a little bump!

Easter Time!

Easter means spring and believe me, we are SOOOO ready for spring! Brykn's not a "in-the-house" kid and we all have cabin fever. But, this Easter was cold--brrrr. The night before the egg hunt, it snowed! Nothin' like hunting eggs in the snow.

And, of course, the bunny came to our house. This year I put Junior Mints in a line on the floor from the front door to the couch in the front room. When Brykn came down the stairs, I told him that the Easter Bunny had pooped on our floor! He didn't buy it. He said, "Unt-un, that's candy!" So much for trying to fool him.

The Easter bunny brought Brykn a new pair of cowboy boots, a kite, a new outfit and of course, a basket full of candy. He (or she) brought Harlee a new out-fit, a t-shirt that says, "Treat Me Like You Would Treat the Queen", a stuffed bunny, and a new bottle. Happy Easter!

Awe...

There's really nothing more to say about this picture other than, "Awe...look how precious!"

Color Me Mine

I took Brykn to a little ceramic shop for an afternoon of arts and crafts. We had a great time! He chose to paint a cup with a monkey on it--Curious George--his favorite! He was so proud of the finished product and drinks his coffee (yes, coffee) in it every morning.
