Ian and I are stoked to hike the Narrows at the end of May, and in preparation for this....We bought Ian a new pack and I got my old pack from my folks! Check out the goods...

Babysitting the Niece and Nephew

Last Friday night we got to babysit Talia and Soren....these were our adventures all in our one bedroom apartment :)

 Tali loved the miniature tent out on our balcony and with a flashlight she had so much fun!

 For a little snack...nothing better than a little life cereal!

 Soren was such a good baby! Just chillin, playing with his book and watching cartoons with us!

 Last thing we got to do before they left is listen to Uncle Eeb read a book.  Tali was so interested!

We very much enjoyed being able to spend a little quality time with our niece and nephew!

Easter

For Easter Ian and I slept in till 10 (can't miss conference!) and then had a delicious breakfast of eggs and hashbrowns.  In between conference we found our Easter baskets and then went to his parents. 

While the second session of conference played Jade, Mom, and I filled plastic eggs full of candy for the little ones.  Then we had an Easter dinner with the family and afterwards the kids went on their 

egg hunt!

Then G-ma surprised all the kids with a bunch of new Easter gifts!

Baby Showers!

Our computer was down for a good 4 weeks or so...which is why I am now just posting this...but here are the pictures of what kept me busy for weeks prior!  I hosted a baby shower for Tiffanie and then co-hosted a shower for Ashley the week after! Congrats to these beautiful mommy's-to-be!

At Tiff's shower we all had to make a baby out of playdough, this was the end result!

I may have gotten carried away with the baby theme....;)
