Our walk around the Rexburg Temple!!

The temple was so fascinating to the kids. You can walk right around this temple and the kids loved it. It was a bit cold but they were taken in by all the beauty. We are so greatful for the temples in our lives.

Priceless Moment!!

How lucky these kids are to have their Grandpa Ivie in their lives. He is a great example and lots of fun. I caught this moment on my camera and had to share. He had some of the Grand kids around him while he read some stories. You must hear him read stories they are quite intriguing.

Easter Treats out of the Friend!!

Making Bunny Treats!

Sydnee found these treats in the Friend Magazine. She wanted to give them a try so we did.

NEW BABY CALVES!!

It has been about three weeks since we got these calves. The kids love them so much. It is fun to watch them learn and grow as they share Courtney's hobby with him.

Ginger had her calf on a cold raining night. He was so tiny, cute, and rained on. I need to get some up dated pictures cause they are all so cute and full of it. In fact just yesterday, I just enjoyed watching Courtney try and put them all back into the pen. He would get two in and while working on the other one the other three would run out. It was great entertainment. This went on for about five min. I guess I could have helped but I had the baby!!

The calves loved sucking on their coats. The kids thought it was so fun!!

Easter Weekend!!!

What a beautiful time of year to celebrate the resurrection. Our Savior died for us that we might live again. We can see examples of new birth with life all around us as we watch the beginnings of spring. As we celebrate this weekend with family I can't help but reflect on eternal families.

Look at sweet Cashlee. The joy she brings into our home is unmeasurable!!!
Easter egg hunt in town. The kids had a blast. Don't ya just love Chase's Raccoon Hat?

Sydnee is a good Easter Egg hunter!!

My family came from up North to spend the day. We colored eggs and did an egg hunt here at home. The kids had a blast. It was such a beautiful day.

So much fun with the cousins.

Once again all smiles from Miss Cashlee!!

Easter Sunday was a perfect day!! In fact we have late church and it was all I could do to keep them clean. They just wanted to play outside.

Ready for church!!

Easter dresses. They were so pretty.

We are so blessed to have these three beautiful children. They bring so much joy into our lives!!

Courtney turned 30!!

Chase wanted to get into Cashlee's tub. Then when I came back from getting her dressed I found him with his water boots in the tub. The things kids think of!!

Dandy is going to have kittens. So the kids were trying to feel her babies move. Once again who could not resist taking a snap shot of this.

Chase was pushing Cashlee in the stroller.

Chase is painting his bird house. His favorite color is blue. He was concentrating so hard.

Look at that smile!! It must have been the big flower!!

Cashlee is quite the jumper. She gets a going in it and makes us all laugh.

I thought she looked like she was praying.

Her smile is so irresistible!!

Blowing out Courtney's candles. I guess with thirty you need the extra help.

We are so thankful for the old man in the family. HA HA HA!!! He wasn't to excited about this day but the kids thought it was great. They were excited to blow out candles with Dad and go out to lunch. That made the day better for their poor old Dad. We love you Court!!
