Lizzyism

Back in April it was Adam's Mom's birthday and I forgot to write this cute little saying down.

Lizzy: Mom, how old is grandma?
Mom: 29
Lizzy: (thoughtfully) Hmmm, that means that Dad is older than she is.

Love the thinking's of a 4 1/2 yr old! (I am not allowed to say she is just 4)

Easter 2011

One day I received a phone call. I looked at the called ID and it read Mary Bleazard, my Grandma. I was really surprised to be getting a call from her. I answered it and it was my cousin Andrea calling to see if we were coming to Pasco for Easter. They really wanted some more kids for the annual Easter Egg Hunt. I told her we hadn't thought about it, but I felt so loved that they would call and invite us. I spoke to Adam and we thought it was a great idea to head to Pasco to be with family and to get out of the rain!

Saturday was a beautiful 70 degree day in Pasco. We stayed outside pretty much all day soaking up the sun! My parents work in the temple on Saturdays so we spent the day with Andrea and her kids Addison and Caiden. It was so fun since our kids are the same age. We first went to pet the cows. Lizzy was in heaven cause she thought it was a petting zoo with free food. We went swimming in Andrea's indoor 90 degree pool (felt Awesome), played on the playground, jumped on the trampoline, saw the horses, rode the 4 wheeler and Adam rode motorcycles. It was awesome.


Sunday we went to church and then went to the Bleazard family party. I LOVED these parties growing up. All the families would bring food for a huge potluck, we would have an easter egg hunt and visit and play games. I love my family so much and it was so fun to see my aunts, uncles, cousins, & grandma.






Blackmail or Embarrassment

Lately James has decided he does not want to be left out of playing dress-up. The only dress-up he has is his dinosaur Halloween Costume from last October so he has resorted to wearing some of Lizzy's. I could not resist taking a picture to use as blackmail or to embarrass the boy later in life--ya never know when these will come in handy. Adam is definitely not happy about his clothing choice, but was pleased to see he was still playing with his favorite toys.

Visitors

At the beginning of April my Uncle Ron, Aunt Marjean and cousin Katie and her family came to visit. It was really fun to see her and get together especially because her kids are just a tad younger than mine. Lizzy and Ariana were instant friends and James was so excited to have a boy, Corban, to play with. We got together for dinner, took our first trip to the zoo this year and Lizzy and Ariana did their hair while we watched General Conference.
