Kates Party!!

While we were down in Rawlins for Kates recital we decided to do a quick b-day party for Kate! She was so excited to do a party!! We went to the park and had it at the park. It was so nice and sunny all day a little windy but sunny. Then about 10 min before the party the clouds rolled in and it started to rain. It didn't rain for very long but it was a little chilly. But of course the kids did not even care. They went out and played and they all ended up with wet bums from the rain on the slides. But it was a lot fun to see Kate with some of her friends.

Cody!!!!

We are moved in and getting settled in Cody!!! I was happy for the crapy weather the first week so i could stay inside and just unpack. I never really feel at home until things are on the walls and boxes are unpacked!! I officially have one box of odds and ends left to unpack!!! Yeah!!

We love this house. It just fits us so well! It was a little over two acres and a great barn for horses. Jake is always playing outside in the yard!! The kids like being out there too!! They are always riding bikes and playing in the dirt!!

Its on a little dirt road about 8 miles outside of town!! Yellow stone is only a 45 min. drive from out house. We are just in love with this little house!! We are going to get horses in the near future and are just so happy!!

We love visitors and our house is always open. So if you want to come to Cody and go to the park and ride horses and just have fun come up and visit us!!!

Coloring easter eggs

We usually do Easter eggs coloring at aunt Lauras but we are in Wyoming this year so we missed out!!! But I could not let my kids go without so I boiled some eggs and got the colors out!! The kids had a blast. Even Kelsey got in on the action!! I have to admit that we made some pretty awesome eggs!! Tagg did so much better this year than he did last year!! It was cute watching Kate be so creative and into her work!! We are going to set them out so the Easter bunny can hide them....I just hope he remembers where he hides them so that we don't have a stinky house in a few months!!!!
Its been fun preparing for Easter and doing the fun family traditions with my family here with us!!! Its nice having visitors from Utah stay for more than one night!!! This is there first time doing that so it has been so much fun!!!

Kates teddy bear dance

Kate had her dance recital the other night!! She did so great!! She got up on that stage and it was awesome!! She loves tap dancing! She was even more excited that dad was there to watch her!! All the girls in her class except one showed up and they all danced so great!! This was Kates first year dancing and she is doing so great, I am so proud of her. I can't go to her dance class anymore though because if I come she just stands there sucking her thumb and doesn't dance. If I don't come all the other moms say she dances great and has no problems!!

She is such a wonderful little princess and we love her!!

Utah trip

We went to Utah to pick up Jake from the airport and just stayed and visited Grandmas and Grandpas and aunts and uncles and cousins!! It was alot of fun!! On sat we horse ridding and Kate is a natural!!! She is so comfortable on horses and just loves to ride them!!! Tagg loves to be on them too. I don't know though if he wants to be on them because he likes them or because everybody else is ridding them and he doesn't want to miss out!
On Sunday we played at grandma leethams house and dad got a new bird that flies and you shoot it out of the sky with a laser gun!!! It is alot of fun and the kids and daddy loved to play it!!
Then we went up and celebrated Uncle Brandon's birthday!!!
We always love going to Utah!
