Mothers Day

So for Mothers Day we went with my family to Little America for a Mothers Day Brunch. Because Dave has to fly on Sundays we went Saturday instead. Mothers Day would not be the same without my awesome husband. We never give each other gifts for most holidays, the only thing I ask for for Mothers Day is a day to do nothing at all. So Dave cleans, takes care of Dexton, and just lets me rest for one full day. It's the best gift ever!

EASTER!

At Dave's parents house. Dexton having a blast on the trampoline with his cousins.
Easter dinner at my house with my fam.
Mark and Angie
Papa playing lucky ducks with Dexton.
Dexton finding all his Easter stuff.
So every morning Dexton wakes up and runs into our room to wake us up and to crawl into our bed. So I decided to put Bunny print suckers all across his room to...
the hall...to
the Easter presents the Easter Bunny brought him.

We heard the door open so Dave and I jumped out of bed, cracked our door opened and watched Dexton find his stuff. He just looked at all the suckers on the floor to his easter stuff and wanted to touch it but didn't dare. He just stared at it for a while, finally coming into our room and I asked him "Did the Easter Bunny come?" and excitingly he said "Yeah!!" and pulled me into the other room showing me what the Easter Bunny got him.
There were eggs hidden all over the house that he found. It was so fun and exciting. I hope my little Dexton had a great Easter!!!

Painting Easter Eggs!

Just some of the Easter Eggs they painted.

1st time Dexton has ever colored Easter Eggs. He had a blast!
Painted them with his cousins Parker and Madison

Dave promised Dexton to see animals at the Arches. This was the best we could find. He loved it though.

Dexton at the pool. It was too cold so he just put his feet in the water and sat in the hot tub.
At the Arches. So cool!
Our friends Alex, Tava

Best Daddy's!

So our good friends Alex and Tava ran the 1/2 marathon down in Moab. Dave and I were so jealous but we went down to support them in their run. It was Tava's 1st run and she did awesome. Alex did amazing too. We for sure will be running it next year! Nice job Alex and Tava!

Happy Birthday to me Part 2...








So my good friend Eric Toland's birthday is 2 days from mine so we celebrated our bdays together at a sushi/hibachi restaurant, Sakura. The hibachi was great but the sushi was ok. It's an all you can eat sushi place, but wasn't a huge fan. Good though, but not fantastic! It was a fun night with our friends. I have the best group of friends in the world! And later that night we went to pizza factory and got their yummy brownie/cookie dessert...omg heaven in your mouth! It was so good! Thanks to all my friends that made my birthday so great!!!
p.s. my family celebrated mine, Angie's, and McKenzies bday at Red Lobster. I forgot to take any pictures...dangit I hate when I do that! Thanks Mom and Dad! It was great!

Happy Birthday to me Part 1...





So Dave took me out alone to one of my favorite restaurants in the world Happy Sumo! Yum I love sushi! It was so good I seriously could have eaten two more rolls it was so yummy. It's just so dang expensive! And then Dave took me to Cold Stone to get yummy chocolate brownie ice cream. My fav! Dave also got me a cupcake recipe book and a gift card to get a massage. Perfect! Thanks for the great birthday baby!

Big Dohnut!


Angie got this huge donut at the grocery store down in Nephi. When Dexton saw it his eyes went huge! Angie and Dexton went to town and surprisingly they did not finish it.

McKenzie's Cheer Try Outs!





Add ImageSo my little sis is following in my foot steps! I cheered all through high school and always hoped my little sis would do the same but she always said she wanted to do sports instead. But one day she asked me if I could help her with Cheer try outs! I was so excited!!! When I tried out you had to do it in front of the whole school! I know embarrassing! But this year they had closed try outs and a practice try out open for friends and family. So Angie and I drove down to Nephi to watch our little sis and waited the next day after her real try outs to see if she made it...and she DID!!! We were so excited! Congrats Kenzie, you worked hard for it!!!

Disnleyland 2010!

Kyle is Dextons cousin but was more like a big brother at Disney. He made sure to look out for him and to keep his hand.
Kim (Dave's sister) and family were at Disney last week. They too have season tickets and ours are about to expire in April so we decided to make a little trip down to go together. Dexton loves his cousins and had a blast. We fly for free so the vacation is cheap for us! Dexton has been to Disneyland around 5 times and Disneyworld 2 times. Though after our tickets expire we probably won't be going for a while. I'm disnied out!
aOn the caterpillar ride. Dexton and Kamryn are so brave and put their hands up during the ride.
We went to this yummy but pricey restaurant in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. My sister n'law and brother n'law get this every time they come to Disneyland. It's the Monte Carlos sandwich. Oh my gosh it was so yummy!!! A ham and cheese deep fried with this delicious jelly to go with it. $21 but so worth it...once :)

At the restaurant
At the "Bug's Land" show. Dexton was scared so he was holding onto his cousin Kyle. It was so funny and cute.
Our little bugs!
Dave and I went on a ride while Kim and Kendell watched the kids. While we were on the ride Dexton decided to stick a cheeto in is nose...
Trying to figure out how to get the cheeto out...
Kendell, the awesome dr he is (aka dentist lol) got a plastic fork, broke the ends off and used them like tweezers and got the cheeto out. Thanks Kendell!
So Dexton has been to Disney a ton of times now, we don't own the movie toy story, he's only seen it once half way but he loves buzz all because of Disneyland. This and toystory were his favorite rides!
Dexton and his cousin Kamryn watching the Star Wars show. One day Dexton will be old enough to participate. Dave has taught him to love star wars, those nerds :)

Dark Vader...
Dexton driving the car.
Dexton loves horses so we had to go show him this one.
BEFORE: Excited, pumped, happy to be on a rollercoaster...oh wait
AFTER: Terrified, scared, nervous, what the heck is this ride!
I'm a little tea cup short and stout...
Dexton LOVED the tea cups!


Dumbo!
There was live music at down town Disney, and the kids were having a blast dancing.
Kyle and Kamryn love their cousin!
Nemo!
Dexton and Kamryn made some new friends at Disney.
On the shuttle to down town Disney. We got to ride up front with the driver. It was cool and the kids loved it.
