Waiting for his eggs to turn colors
We made some sugar cookies too. I let them pick out their own cookie cutters. Micali picked two bunnies and Eli went for the football and dinosaur.
Abigail slept soundly while this fun was happening but when she heard there were cookies on the oven she stood next to it and kept saying “cookie”
This last week it was free to visit all the national parks. We decided to take advantage of it. Aunt Kendra came down to deliver a special gift to Micali so she even got to join in on the fun. It was so great to have her with us for the day. The kids had a horrible night of sleep the night before so Eli especially wasn’t feeling up to hiking. He got carried the entire way so we just picked a couple very short hikes and called it good.
(Kendra hiked Abigail up to the arch and gave her to me at the top to get a picture with her)
Last Saturday we went up to Salt Lake City for Kayla and Matt’s wedding. It was a very snowy spring morning but these two were so happy to be getting married they didn’t seem to worry at all about the weather. It was so great to be there with them and we look forward to getting to know Matt better.
Kayla was such a BEAUTIFUL bride.
I didn’t get very many pictures on my camera but here are some to share until the REAL ones come in.
Micali was so excited to be with her princess KK.
I loved spending time with all my sisters. I love it when we all have the opportunity to be together because it sure doesn’t happen very often these days.
This morning we got two cases of blueberries. 24 little six ounce cases. My little ones are IN LOVE. Eli has finished off two of them all on his own. Abigail and Micali have also shared two of them. As Eli finished his second case after naps he immediately went and got ANOTHER one out of the fridge. I had to put a stop to it. I love watching them enjoy healthy food but I had to put a stop to it so they don’t end up sick.
Starting his first container for breakfast this morning. I was shocked when I returned a few minutes later and found them all gone.
FINISHED!!! (I can’t get him to do an open eyes smile)

I have a new fun hobby. It is so great going to the grocery store and saving more than you spend. Here is a picture of my latest venture to the store. These boxes of cereal and granola bars were less than 1 dollar a box. The trick is waiting for the things to go on sale and then using coupons on the sale items.
We have had to get a little creative with where we put all of it. This is a picture of our little stash in the bottom of our closet.
These were all part of my last trip. This is only a small part of it. The total I paid was $88.44 and my savings was $135.90! My kids sure love it that I go coupon shopping they have so many snacks to choose from when we go on our road trips.
