Cousins....

These two are going to be the best of buddies!  Charlie thinks Millie is quite hilarious and vice versa.  I grew up with my cousins not really being cousins but siblings.  We had sleepovers every weekend, pageant parties, SLC shopping trips, ect.  My cousins are some of my favorite people still today and those memories we all shared are ones that will last a lifetime.  Even though these guys live far apart, I hope with everything that they still remain close.  And who knows maybe someday we will be next door neighbors. 



Growing up my mom used to make us four girls all matching dresses, especially Easter dresses.  While shopping, we couldn't resist these cute dresses for the girls.

Spring Break, Easter fun and Birthday!

The month of March went by SO fast, we hardly even knew it came and went.  For Spring Break we started off our vacation in Fresno with Cam's parents.  We park hopped alot and just relaxed.  Let me tell ya, it was MUCH needed relaxing for all of us.  I guess I was too busy relaxing to remember to take pictures, I managed to get this one before we left.  We love getting together with these two and can't wait until the next time. 
PS: Doesn't my mother in law look like she's still in her 20's?
The kids and I dropped off Dad at the airport and made our way to St. George to visit the other Grandparents.  Katie was in town from Iowa so with the babies in tow we headed up north to visit family and friends.  A big thanks to Grandpa and Grandma for watching the older kids!  Again, I forgot to take pictures of when we went up north.  I only got lucky that my sister was a good picture taker and have a few of the visit in St. George.  
Since Kate and Mill were in town we decided to stay for a few more days and enjoy the company.  
Charlie definitely enjoyed the family time!  
The kids talked Grandma into dyeing eggs and making an Easter House.

All I have to say about getting these three to take a picture in their Easter best is WOW!
Not one good one!  I am determined to take a redo someday.



Char is really 99% of the reason we don't get a good picture.  She will NOT look at the camera or hold still.  But still, she is the cutest baby around, looking or not!
This year we decided to go out to the Mesa Temple to the Easter Pageant they do every year.  We hadn't been in a couple of years and were SO glad we went.  Jake really understood the message it gave and because of a Sunday lesson and FHE he followed the story pretty intensely.  He knew exactly what was going to happen before it happened and kept yelling out "Look that's Jesus again!"
 We attended the Surprise "Eggstravaganza" again this year.  The kids enjoyed the jumpy slides while we waited for their age group egg hunt to begin. 
Charlie got a kick out of watching the kids run around like crazy picking up candy and eggs.
This would have been the cutest "sisters" picture, but look who's hideing again.  Why bother right?
The best picture of the day!!  ARRRRGGGGG MATEY..........

It was my 27th Birthday yesterday.  I recieved so many cute cards, gifts and yummy treats.  Cam gave me the best present which was coming home early and just hanging out with us!!  We don't get that often so for me it was a treat!  I got to volunteer at Alex's school Easter Egg Hunt, the kids made me a cake and gave me the second best gift which was the COMPLETE Serie of Seinfield!  WOAH!  It's my favorite time of the day, me and Cam laying in bed with our bowl of popcorn and laughing until our bellies hurt!  Gotta love Cramer!  
Cam the man took me to a nice dinner and then we met up with great friends for a local band concert.  Nothing like loud music that makes your insides shake!  It was a great day and I'm starting to feel like the years can now slow down a bit, I'm liking 27, I think it's a great place to be for awhile.
