Happy Easter

This Easter was uneventful due to the fact that we are moving AGAIN this weekend (though just a mile away). Luckily our friends, the Stucki's, had a big Easter bash in their yard complete with a bounce house, food and of course an egg hunt.

The Kennedy's

Mikes good friend Jared, his wife Jillian and their little boy Caden came to Utah for a little visit.  Though it was fun to see the two babies together, it was even more thrilling to see how grown up, responsible and wonderful these good looking single "players" have become.  I think Jillian and I can take credit for the dreamy fathers and husbands they've turn into. (hehe)

Esti's Blessing

This past weekend Mike's parents flew in from Kansas for Esti's baby blessing.  We like to keep things private and chose (as with all our kids) to bless her at home rather than church.  It was so wonderful to have some family attend and participate and to see Esti in our traditional GUF baby basketball outfit that all my siblings and many nieces and nephews were blessed in.

Family Time...

Our family spends a lot of time together and we're lucky to have a Dad that likes to be with us. Usually that time consists of movie/tv watching and most always a laptop in the mix.  Though I admit I love my computer, I'm quite irritated with the TV and would rather not have it in my house.  It's like having ice cream in the freezer and expecting me not to eat it.  Out of sheer frustration, I decided to make dinner time more interactive to force the family away from the big screen.  We all made our own delicious pizzas and enjoyed a few minutes of hearing each others voices instead of the TV.  The kids loved it but  Mike (unknowingly) was a little antsy and lasted about 10 minutes before he had to check his phone and tivo.  We're making baby steps and I'm considering "accidentally" forgetting to pay our cable and netflix bill!  One can dream.
yummy


Rainbow of Eyes

Now that Esti is 7 weeks old, her eyes seem to be shifting to a true blue (though some may say it's too early to know for sure).  It's looking like all my babies will have their own unique eye color.
