Easter - Day 3

This trail was called "Kane Creek" and it was one I had actually never been on before - so it was a new experience for all of us. We went with the actual Jeep Safari instead of just on our own like we usually do so we had a lot of rigs with us. This trail was pretty scenic for the most part but wasn't nearly as fun as some of the other trails. We stopped for lunch at the bottom of the creek bed and the kids had a blast making a dam across the water and of course splashing each other.










After we finished Kane Creek trail we ate dinner and hurried over to Hell's Revenge before it got dark. Hell's Revenge is one of my most favorite trails just because of how scenic it is. It was an absolutely beautiful night and we got some really cool pictures. I was glad we had time to do it because it honestly is something everyone should experience in a lifetime. I mean you just can't get views like that from any road - anywhere!








Easter - Day 2

We drove to Moab Thursday and didn't waste much time once we got there. We set the trailer up called my cousins Trent and Ray and took Jake on his very first Jeep Safari trail. We went on a trail called "Behind the Rocks" and Jake had an absolute blast! I don't think he was 100% sure what he was getting himself into but he had a ton of fun once we started going. I have missed Jeeping so much and it was so nice to get out and have some fun. The weather was beautiful as well as the scenery and of course the company is always great fun! I think Jake is hooked now and we will definitely be going back. :)























Easter - Day 1

So I have an overwhelming amount of pictures - so I decided to break up our Easter by the day.
The Sunday before Easter Lauren, Beau & Kyler came over so the kids could dye Easter eggs together. They had a lot of fun and made good messes - Kyler thinks these girls are crazy! :) We used Kool-Aid this year which I actually liked more than the dye kits and they came out as really pretty colors. They dyed about 30 eggs between the 3 of them and it wasn't nearly enough! We dyed them pretty early this year due to the girls (and us) being gone I wanted them to be done by Sunday when we got back. The kids were so excited they were hoping it would wake up and be Easter the next day!

Spring Cleaning

Well we have made a few changes around the house in preparation for Baby A to come. We decided I needed a bigger vehicle - because the kids while they would have fit, would have been VERY squished in the back. So we just decided to start looking around not really set on buying anything right now - and we ran across this Yukon. It was an awesome deal an '07 with only 40K miles on it - It had cloth interior which was the only thing I didn't love about it so the dealership had leather installed for me and after waiting for a couple of weeks we took it home! It is nice to have so much room and the kids absolutely LOVE it :) we are very pleased with our purchase and I'm excited to take it to California when we go in June.

Addi had her bed replaced a while back because she had just outgrown hers - but I haven't taken any pictures of it because she didn't have matching bedding. Haha I know silly - but we finally found her this horse bedding that she just loves so much and it turned out really cute!

Kambri also got a new bed because Baby A will get her crib - it was much more cost effective to get her a new bed than the baby a new crib because we already had a twin mattress from Addi's old bed. She too went with horse bedding and it turned out super cute - she doesn't sleep in her big girl bed ALL the time yet but she loves to sleep in it most of the time. And I haven't had any problems with her getting out in the middle of the night she goes right to sleep and just yells if she needs anything.

Crazy to think that in just a few short months Baby A will be here and we couldn't be more excited! :)
