Happy Easter!

Madison with her Sunday Easter basket!!


She started her day with chocolate and laffy taffy...she was WIRED all day long!! Look at those lips...so cute!

Madison said, "look mom, the Easter Bunny brought me a starburst! Did he get it at Walmart?!" Ha, I think we might have one more year before she puts it all together...lol!!

This is a picture of Madison throwing a tantrum after I broke the news to her that she could NOT have anymore CANDY!

Madison all ready to go to church!!

Madison coloring Easter eggs at Grandma and Grandpa's house!! I love this picture of Madison!

Grandma Sue helping Madison dip her eggs!

Aunt Brook! Brook was quite the egg decorator...she brought her A game!!

We hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Sunday!! We are so blessed to have the atonement in our lives, and I am so thankful for Christ and his atoning sacrifice! I am nothing without him, and I am so grateful for his LOVE!

Tyler's 30 and Richard's 60!!

RICHARD'S 60th BIRTHDAY!
Last weekend we celebrated my Father in-law's 60th birthday here in Vegas!! Everyone came into town, and we had a great time!

Madison and Alexa giggling together! It is so fun to watch them play together!
Alexa just being her cute little self! She is one of the happiest kids I have ever met! I don't think she ever has a BAD day!!

Trevor and Bode! Bode was eating his Easter basket...so cute!

Daddy and Madison before the Easter egg hunt!

Madison in action! She was so funny about getting the eggs; she only wanted to get the easy eggs! She would freak out if she had to crawl under a tree to get an egg! She had a blast though!!

My handsome hubby!

Tyler's mom made 2 memory books for Richard! One included 60 reasons why we love him, and the other was a scrap book with pictures of him and the family over his lifetime! It was a great gift, and he really LOVED it!!

Grandma Sue with Bode and Madison!

Richard rarely smiles like this for pics, but I just happened to capture this great smile in between his silly faces!!Saturday we headed to the Fab 4 show of the Beatles, and it was GREAT! Then, we went to Outback for some yummy dinner! This is a picture of the gang less Brook, who had to leave a little early! The month of April is a bit nuts in Tyler's family!! We have 5 Birthdays to celebrate, so it is a busy month! We had them bring out 5 ice cream sundaes! There were more people at the table with sundaes than there were without! So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to: Sue, Richard, Tyler, Jeff, and Spring!!

Tyler's 30th BIRTHDAY

Tyler turned 30 on March 9th...we are FINALLY the same age again! I took him out to dinner at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, and then to see Fast and Furious! Our steaks were delicious!! My awesome friend Michelle watched Madison for us so we could have a blissful night! Thanks Michelle!!

Tyler asked for a nice Leatherman this year, so that is what I got him!

I made him some yummy cupcakes! I asked if he wanted to take some to work, and he said NO! He wanted them all to himself! I told him there were 24 cupcakes and I didn't think he would be able to eat them all by himself! After some convincing, he reluctantly took these cupcakes to work with him to share!!

I also got him some shirts, but they didn't fit very well, so I will be taking those back and getting him some different ones!

Madison's new swimming pool

Madison LOVES her new blow-up swiming pool (thanks Aunt Brook)! She watches T.V. in it now! Yep, those are her Christmas PJ's...that's what happens when laundry gets put on the back burner!! :)

Steve and Kalina's wedding

Madison and Anistyn ready to go see Princess Kalina! Madison thinks all brides are princesses, so when we arrived at the Temple, she thought we were at Disneyland!!
Our friends Steve and Kalina were married in the Salt Lake Temple last month, and this is a picture of the gang at the wedding luncheon. I don't have anymore pics of the wedding, because I forgot my camera.

Some pics from the bachelor party!! Yep, that's right, the wives were invited to the bachelor party! It was WAY more fun with us there!!

However, the girls are NOT responsible for the purchases made for the bachelor, so please don't get the wrong impression from these pics! The boys were completely in charge!! I think they found this beautiful night gown at Walmart for $3.00...SO HOT, especially with the chest part cut out...lol!! :) They tried to get me to do the cutting, but I said I wanted NO PART in it!

Do I need to explain?!!

Tyler and I

Ben and Wayne...the happy gay couple! J/K!! Ben is on the left; his wife was home with their twin boys. Wayne is on the right; he is available for all you single ladies out there, and he is an awesome guy!!

Adam and Natalie

Zach and Andrea

Again, do I need to explain?!!

When we arrived to Tyler's parent's home in Provo, we discovered the HEAT was NOT working...it was 56 degrees in the house...yikes!! So, we bundled Madison up, and this is what she looked like!
