Baseball game and first swim




Yes, we're crazy and took the kids to the pool today! I got Hannah's swimsuit in the mail and wanted to try it on her. Hannah loved it! She kept saying "pretty pretty" and running around. So, Preston decided he needed his on too. So, he went up and got it and we put it on for him. Then he insisted on going swimming. So, we figured we would just let them play on the steps. They had so much fun! It was pretty cold but it really didn't phase them much. I'm sure it would have if they were all the way in. Hannah was kicking her feet and squealing. Preston played with his watering can the whole time. We only stayed for about 20 minutes.
I have to add that I looked at like every swimsuit online. I wanted Hannah to have the cutest suit!! I found this on at Sears of all places and I think it just looks super cute on her and it was only $8!!
Hannah looked so stinkin' cute in that new swimsuit of hers. She just melts my heart.
Also added some pictures from the baseball game we went to last week. Brad's singing group from school, "Docappella" sang the national anthem there so we all went. It was pretty fun. We were cold though. It was kind of a cold windy night. But we had fun. Preston still talks about it and about the guy that fell down. Ha ha. That's what he remembers from the game, I guess.

Slacking









I've been slacking on the blogging thing lately. I'm working really hard with the little free time I do have to get my bow business moving a little more.
We had a busy week last week. We went up to Utah to visit and to do a bridal shower for my sister in law and I took her bridal pictures as well. I enjoyed visiting. It just always goes by so fast when we're there.
I enjoyed conference weekend so much. I love chilling out with my family and feeling the spirit as we hear the wonderful messages. I have really enjoyed Elder Holland's talks the last couple conferences. He is such a powerful speaker. They all are, really.
Brad had all last week off and then had mon-weds off this week. Super nice to spend time with him and the family.
The kids really enjoyed Easter this year. They loved hunting for eggs. They had to open them all right away to see what was inside. They've had so much sugar lately!!
We went to an Easter egg hunt and had one in the backyard. They liked it so much the first time I did it again for them.
I dressed them up on Easter even though we didn't have to go to church. I just wanted some in their outfits. I love dressing my kids up so much! Hannah was such a little princess and she KNOWS when she looks cute. Preston always looks so handsome when dressed up with his glasses and hair done. I have cute kids. I know that.
Brad is busy studying for the board exams that are in July. I can't imagine all the work he has to do to get ready for that.
I'm busy with bows, young women and being a mom. I love being busy. I have been pretty tired lately though.
Hannah talks so much now! I love hearing what she says. This morning she was walking around the house saying "Daddy go?" (where did daddy go?) She knew he had been around for a week or so and was confused as to why he wasn't here this morning. She LOVES puppies and talks about them ALL the time. She got a barking puppy from Grandma Tina for Easter. It's her favorite toy.
Preston says the funniest things. One of our recent favorites is that Brad did a Family Home Evening Lesson on Easter and the resurrection. He showed pictures of Jesus on the cross and we talked about how he died and everything. At the end he asked Preston "So how did Jesus die?" Preston responded with "He crossed the street" HA HA. Guess that one didn't sink in...not that we were expecting it to.
I love being a mom. I love my husband. I love the gospel. I love my life.
