Easter fun...


Bridger LOVES his teacher...she is pretty amazing!

Easter egg hunt...didn't get any pics of Kenna because Josh had her...




Working on Kenna's puzzle she got for Easter...

We had a great Easter! I love Easter...everything about it. I love the colors associated with Easter, the flowers, everything! I especially love the true meaning of Easter...the significance of Easter is so amazing. I love knowing that because our Savior, Jesus Christ, loves us so much he was willing to die for us and to be ressurected....that is incredible. Such hope and promise it brings to our lives...knowing that we will be ressurected one day makes life so much more meaningful.

We had a Family Home Evening lesson on Easter and the Ressurection to help the kids remember what Easter is all about. In addition to that we also talked about it often. We also enjoyed listening to conference, which was amazing!
As for the "fun" side of Easter, Bridger had a cute Easter party at preschool...I went in for a few minutes and snapped a couple of pics. He got to participate in an Easter Egg hunt at preschool and did a lot of fun Easter activities. We spent Easter weekend with the Johnsons. We went up early Saturday morning for the Kaysville Easter egg hunt...it was fun, but so cold...I love doing things like that though for the kids to remember. Josh and Kenna went into the field for 0-3 and I went with Bridger into the field for 4-6. Kenna didn't really get it entirely as to what she was supposed to do, but she was excited for candy! Bridger was funny...he raced to the center of the field and ran past a bunch of eggs, and then took forever to pick up any. He fell at one point and was freaking out because he was dirty! haha He did manage to get some eggs and candy though! After the hunt we headed over to the Johnsons to watch conference and visit. For lunch we headed up to Josh's grandma's for her annual Easter party. She does an awesome job with it! We had dinner, then the kids got to hunt for treats in the back yard and she hid gifts for everyone around the house. The kiddos ended up with a bunch of candy and cute new jammies! For the rest of the evening we hung out at Johnsons and dyed Easter eggs. Easter day was fun too! The Easter bunny hid the baskets and when Bridger found his he was so excited. He got candy, movies and a fishing pole! Kenna got a princess ball (she loved it!), an automatic bubble blower, and candy. They also found eggs hidden around the house....Kenna got into this too! It was so cute!!! We enjoyed an amazing dinner and then watched afternoon conference and headed home. It was a great weekend! Oh and I didn't get a ton of Easter pics because I was filming everything instead!

Farm Country...













Today we had a fun play date with a bunch of our "Eagle Mountain Friends". There were 7 of us ladies and all our kiddos...some of us don't live in Eagle Mountain anymore, but we were all in the same neighborhood at one point. It was so much fun to get together and visit with everyone and let the kids play...one of the ladies we hadn't seen in at least a year...sad! We met up at Farm Country at Thanksgiving Point...they have quite a few farm animals there, pony rides, etc. The kids had a blast seeing the animals and riding the ponies! Kenna was funny...she was very cautious the whole time. I would put her down so she could walk around but she would mostly just stand there and watch...I think she was overwhelmed by everyone and everything. She did love the pony ride though! After the Farm we went to a park so we could eat lunch and the kids could play. It wasn't as warm today as it was supposed to be, but it was okay and we had a great time! Yea for warmer weather coming, yea for outdoors and yea for friends!


P.S...More posts coming, including a week in Colorado!

Oh blog...

Oh how I so desperately need to update my blog...and I will in the next few days and I'll even get rid of the Valentine's Day background..pathetic, I know...but here's something funny from Bridger last night...
Okay, so I got my last wisdom tooth out on Tuesday afternoon so Josh was kind of in charge of dinner last night. He made eggs and waffles. Bridger took a bite or two of his eggs and then said, "These eggs are horrible. Dad, I don't think you did the recipe right. It tastes like I have a fart in my mouth." Then Kenna calls Bridger, so he says to Kenna, "Just a minute Kenna, I have a fart in my mouth right now." Oh my goodness, we were laughing so hard...yah, he's kind of gross I guess, but oh my hilarious!!!

Bridger-isms...

Here's a couple things Bridger said yesterday...I want to remember them...love that funny kid!
-At lunch he didn't want to finish his oranges, so he said, "My tummy hurts. I think I have a tummy infection."
-Bridger had preschool yesterday, but his teacher wasn't the one who got him out of the car as we dropped him off(she usually is the one to get him out), so I asked him if Mrs. Jensen was there today. He started to say yah, but then changed to the following, "No, she wasn't there today." So I asked him who was and he replied, "No one...the kids were in charge. Well mostly, one kid was in charge and we just hung out and stuff." Then he starts laughing and said, "I'm just kidding...Mrs. Jensen was there today!"
