Roundup with dad

My dad (papa mark) found some ponies,and has just got then trained and we thought it would be fun for then to pull a cart. Well we brought a wagon to my parents and the grandkids thought they needed a ride with or without a pony. John is the best sport and pulled them all around for 1/2 an hour or more. And he Ran the entire time. Who needs a pony when you have John. Love ya babe!!

The zoo!

So we were up north (i guess down south for John) for a friends wedding. We decided to stay overnight in salt lake cause we partied so late. The next morning it was overcast and really just beautiful so we decided to go to the zoo. The girls loved it. The new section they opened up is really neat. The polar bear seems to just play all day. With it not being hot alot of the animals were out and about. Like the tigers. We even saw the gorilla? Clear up in the top of a tree. We took a trip on the carousel, D'Enna just chilled on her Daddy's lap and Kaydence loved  waving to the people. "it is my princess wave mom" oh great Kayla Hall this is all your fault. And then the train. It was a perfect Sunday.

Tuachan theater!!

I think my kids have some of the best grandparents ever!!!. From cruises to getaways they take care of us. My mom, Mindy, Atley Kaydence and I all went down to   southern Utah for a few days. We went to mesquite and stayed one night and played in the pool and fun slide they have at the Casa Blanka. Then we checked out and headed the Saint George!! We shopped played in the pool and just had a great time!!  Thewe went to the tuachan and seen Aladdin. The girls loved it. I can't wait to go again next year maybe we can go earlier or way later in the season it was quite hot. Lol Thanks mom.

We moved.... Again.

Sothe place we were renting just seemed like too much for us when we were paying half that for our own home and trailer and payments. So we have moved into a KOA. Ha ha. I am loving it. We are finally using our trailer as a family and the people are all very friendly. There is a cute kittle playground and a swimming pool and we are about a block away from the snake river for fishing. :)
Kaydence also has a pet squirrel. Its name is Snow White." I know mom its not white, but am sure its a girl" she just roams around the park (who knows how many "snowwhites" we have.

Spring time!!

I love the farm life in the spring. Baby calves lambs and puppies! And Kaydence loves ridding the tractor with her papa mark

Easter Idaho Style

 HOPPY Easter!! This year is probably one of very few I have spent not camping with my family. But It was a wonderful time!!! We woke up got bathed and hair and Sunday dresses on for church had breakfast and then we noticed the Easter Bunny had came Saturday night! So we then went on our hunt. After that we ate lunch and went to church. After church John and I got our casual clothes on and took the girls for a walk to the nearby park. We had a great time  just enjoyed the beautiful weather! I am so grateful for Heavenly father and his plan he has for us, his sacrifices have made life so much easier for me to be comfortable with all the trials that come up in life knowing that if I keep trying my best I am ... covered. :)

 D'Enna loved it, as usual happy little thing.

 Kaydence was so cute helping D'Enna find eggs and putting them in the basket.

 The Easter bunny brought Bubbles, John and the girls played outside while I made a quick lunch before church.

 Play Time

The gravel is kind of nice, but doesn't work so well with sandals and toes. ha ha

 John tried to get Kaydence to smile into the sun...... didn't really work. lol

Our Baby D'Enna is one!

What happens when a mom decided she is going to do a simple birthday cake and then gets on pintrest 2 days before the big party?... Stress, mess and too many fun ideas!!! I have fallen in love with the cute little owls that have flooded cyber land. So we ended up with cake pops and D'Enna got her own owl smash cake! 

 Forgot to buy something for eyes... back to the store.

Forgot to put the ears on...

 Finished the owl smash cake and got the cake pops finished.

The mess I made and left(it was 2:30 am.)

The Final treats! minus the ice cream, They were so cute, but i still bit their heads off. :)

So With the way our rental is set up we could have had our party at our own house, but we literally only have 5 chairs besides our couches. So we didn't think everyone could fit. But John's Aunt and uncle live 5 minutes away and was generous enough to lend us there home for the afternoon.  So we had Judy, Grandpa Dan, Papa Mike and Grandma Susan, Grandma and Grandpa kloepfer, Stephanie and Siri , and Kayla Tyson and there baby bean.

Great Grandpa Dan, D'Enna loves to cuddle him.

 Papa Mike! He and Susan came all the way from  Manti to come to her big party. They picked up Kayla and Tyson with them as well. It was so super nice of them to make the drive!!!!! Sorry to all the rest of you we really didn't want you to feel obligated to to come up. If you were wondering why you never got an invite.

 She never really dug into the cake. It was funny to watch her such the bits of frosting off her fingers. She just wanted to eat the starburst flower i made for the owl. Silly girl.

 Stephanie and  Siri.They were at John's aunts house just visiting. Siri is 6 days older that D'Enna so it is all ways fun when they can get together.I think she liked my owl treats the most. ;)

She got super spoiled clothes dolls, cash and books. What more could a 1 year old need!
