Fun with cousins!

The other day Katie had to come to St.George for a dentist appointment for Leah. I told her to bring the others and let them play, because they hardly ever get to see their cousins. They had such a blast together! I am so glad they got to come and play! We did miss Leah though. Also, Katie decided to stay and help me clean and organize the next day. I am SO grateful that she did. She is so talented. She taught me a lot while we were cleaning, and we got most of my house done. I had a lot of fun with her, and I needed the help so bad!!! I have had a lot more energy since then, and I have been able to stay on top of my house work, and finish up the rest of the house. Thank you so much, Katie! You are such an awesome, wonderful sister, and such a good example to me. I love you!

Okay, here are some pictures of the cousins playing:

Broadway Magic!!

I have been singing a lot lately, and LOVING it! Recently I had the opportunity to sing in a talent show called Broadway Magic. It was SO much fun!! We sang Dancing Queen, and did the dance off of Mamma Mia...(never seen the movie).

Here is a picture of us getting ready:
And here is the finished product..... Nice, eh? It was a blast, and we ROCKED the talent show!!!

Going to work with Daddy

The other day Randy had a job in Duck Creek, and so we all decided to go up with him. We had a good time! The kids had fun playing in the snow and watching their daddy work.

Randy got up on this old, crooked ladder 3 stories high to mount the dish. I think it was around 25 ft. in the air. He is so good at what he does. He works really hard, and I am SO grateful for him! Going to work with him and seeing all of the things that he has to put up with and do makes me appreciate him so much more. Thank you, Honey, for all of the sacrifices you make for us. We love you!!!

Happy Birthday Naomi!!

My little girl is 3!! I can't believe how fast time flies. We had a good time. My friend, Shauna, helped me out. She made the cake, and decorated her house all up so that we could have a party for her (It was a stressful day for me). I was so greatful! Naomi and all the kids had a blast. I love you Naomi, I hope you have fun being a 3 year old!

She made this cake and the frosting from scratch!

And all the kids got to make puppets for a fun activity!

Hare Easter Party

This year with the Hare family, we had our Easter party at Randy's sister's house. It was such a blast! The kids had so much fun. Bea and Caren put money in eggs, and the kids try to get the egg with the most money in it. It is the golden egg! Bea hides it really well too. It was fun!

Emma wanted that golden egg SO bad!!! I had to remind her to get other eggs too, or else she wouldn't get anything (one of the big kids usually gets it).
My pictures are backwards, but here is Naomi enjoying her candy.

Daddy helping Briallen enjoy her candy!

Here are a few more of them on the egg hunt:

AND........ Emma found the golden egg!!!!! She was so happy! It had $10 in it! Lucky girl.

This is the kids before the hunt, excited and ready to go.

Bundy Easter Party

This year we had our Dave Bundy Easter party early. We went to Davey and Marylynn's property in Littlefield. We also had the Newt Bundy family there with us. There were lots of fun things to do.

There was an Easter egg hunt,

Skeet shooting,

Paddle boating,

Canoeing,

four wheeling,

and a lot more... It was great to just sit around and visit, and let all the kids play with their cousins. I think everyone in the Cliven Bundy family was there too (minus a couple spouses)! Ammon and Lisa surprised us all and showed up, and Lance and Penny were there too; it was so good to see everyone!

Good little babysitter

The other day the kids were all playing in the back yard, and Briallen wanted in the swing. Emma wanted to push her, so I went in the house for a little while. Emma came and got me to show me something, and this is what I saw:

A tired little baby....hehe..... so cute!

Milking the goat....

For about 5 years Randy has been milking a goat so that our kids can have good, healthy milk. Our awesome neighbors down the street are an older couple who can't drink all the milk, so they let us have some of it, and Randy and the kids go down in the mornings to milk her. They absolutely LOVE to milk the goat, and they cry if Randy ever does it without them. And Randy truly enjoys the time that he gets to spend with his girls. He is such a great dad!

This is them leaving the goat. We live at the top of the hill.

Natalie & Naomi love to feed the animals. They are getting some of the dry leaves to feed them.

Randy has been teaching Emma how to milk. She actually does pretty good.

This is the girls feeding the baby goat some grain.

I am so glad that we can give the kids a little bit of farm experience. It is my dream to one day have a farm and raise my children the way I was raised.

My little Mozart???

The other day I was cleaning the house, and turned around, and this is what I saw.... My little 13 month old baby sitting at the bench playing the piano. It was so cute! She was even looking at the music.....hopefully she will grow to love to play the piano.

Check it out!!!

Hey everyone! My little sister Bailey is starting up a little business making bows and accessories. She is such a go-getter! She decided she wanted to do it just a couple of weeks ago, and is already up and going for the most part. And her bows are cute too. She also does FREE SHIPPING!! I just thought I would help her out by telling everyone I know. Go check it out! www.cutesybowsnthings.blogspot.com .

Naomi's new hair style

Well, after the 3rd time of Naomi finding the scissors and cutting her own hair, I got the hint that she wants short hair for now. It's not the hair cut I would have chosen, but it's not horrible either. My cute little baby. She looks just like I did when I was her age, and I actually think she looks a little like my mom's toddler pictures too.

My lovely "prickles"

Last night I was playing on the computer. Emma came in and pointed at this picture, and this is a little how our conversation went:

Emma: Mom, this is my favorite picture of you guys, I really like it.

Me: really? I like this picture too.
Emma: I can’t even see your prickles (freckles) in this picture.
Me: Nope, you can’t, huh?
Emma: Yeah, I don’t really like prickles. I wish you didn’t have them.
Me: You do?
Emma: yeah.....(thinking)..... there’s gotta be a way to get rid of them........ You would look prettier without prickles.

……..Haha! How funny. It was so hard for me to keep a straight face, and not laugh hysterically. I hope she learns to like them, cause there is a good chance she will get some too….hehe. So cute!
