April Fun





What a silly girl!





She absolutely LOVES blowing bubbles!  She asks for bubbles every day!







2 years old

My baby is 2 years old!  She is the joy of our lives!  We took her up to Dry Fork and took a few pictures to put on her birthday party invitation.  They are not professional in the least bit, but I still thought they turned out really cute.  She is such a little poser.  I wanted to write a few of her words  down that she says right now so I won't forget.


grink=drink
hoggog=hot dog (favorite food)
no-nos=noodles
moy=more
hold you=hold me
how=why (this one cracks me up every time)
mama=grandma
bompa=grandpa
mnt=eat

She's talking so well, and learning new words every day.

The other day I was putting her to bed and I asked her, "Brooklyn, do you know how much I love you?"  She said "How much mommy?"  I stretched my arms out as far as I could and said "This much!"  She looked at me with huge eyes and said "That's a lot!!"

She's such a little sweetheart and says and does the funniest things.  She always keeps us laughing. She loves everyone and every animal she sees.  She especially loves cats and dogs, and always asks to go see the goats by our church.  We love her so much!

Trip to Blanding

My cousin Dillon came home from his mission to Independence, Missouri on April 13th, so we headed down to Blanding to go to his homecoming.  I always love a good excuse to go to Blanding to see all of my mom's family.  Dillon's younger brother Dresden had been waiting 11 long months for him to get home so that Dillon could baptize him.  It was a special weekend, going to the baptism and the homecoming.  
Kyler gave a great talk at the baptism.
Dresden, Brookie and Marcie

Me, Brooklyn, Dillon and Ben

Dillon and Kyler have been good buddies their whole lives.  Kyler was excited to have him home!



It turned out to be a really cold, snowy weekend.

On the way out of town we stopped at the cemetery to visit my grandma and grandpas grave.



Kaden's Birthday

Kaden turned 12 on April 10th.  We all went over to their house to celebrate and had a great time!
