Spring is Here!


Here are some most resent pictures. Colton's Birthday and our community easter egg hunt. Enjoy!

Colton took his pic with the Easter Bunny. Libby just ran away screaming!

This pic of Libby is just too cute! I had to show it off.
At Colton's party they had a silly string fight.
All the kids that came to his party, all though he really just wanted his cousins there.

Yeah! My Bulbs have sprung and now I am awaiting the blooms. I've started a Begonia in my kitchen. Soon we will be planting a garden! This year for our garden we are going to do an above ground one at Juliea's house (we will be renting from her and Darin) and we are also doing a "community" garden this year. Our friends have permission to use the lot next to them for a very large garden. We have gotten a farmer in our ward to till the ground with one of his cool machines. So for Family Home Evening we went over there and planted red potatoes and Sweet Peas. We are also doing carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, jalapenos, bell peppers, water melon, cantaloupe, and cucumbers. Anyway, it'll be fun. We are also going to Can jars as much as possible. This will save us lots of money in the winter.

Like I mentioned in the last paragraph, we will be renting Darin and Juliea's house this summer. We are hopping our house sells. Keep us in your prayers. The business Hugh runs comes and goes in spurts and it is really hard to regulate our income. We are cutting back and getting rid of as many bills that we can to keep the company running and our selves taken care of.

Thanks for visiting!

It is good to see pics of your kids. Tell Colton we all wish him a happy belated birthday. Libby is a doll! I thought that you must have given up on the blog:) It has been a while. We will keep you in our prayers. Hope all goes well. Have a happy Easter tomorrow.

Dear Colton,
Please come for my birthday. It was so nice seeing you in Hawaii. Is it cold where you live? I hope to visit you some day. I have never forgotten about you. It has been a long time.
Your friend,
