Life is crazy! Good crazy!

Sorry for the lack of postings! Things are totally crazy around here so I'll just fill you in really quick. Last week we decided to bite the bullet and finish the last two bedrooms in our basement, making it completely finished with the exception of a storage room. We got two bids, chose one, he started a last wednesday and he will be done on Friday! Things of been a whirlwind around here! The two rooms we are finishing were filled with storage so all of that stuff is in our family room downstairs. We are also adding a closet to the toy room so we had to empty that room so they can restretch the carpet. So, all of that stuff is also in our family room. We are also adding some shelving to Brynley's closet so we had to empty that mess into her room. Aubrey's room is pretty much the only clean room in the house so we go there for refuge from the mess. But it is a good exciting mess with lots of promise. We are excited. Pictures to come soon.

I am getting ready for Kelly's baby shower! Yay, so exciting! I've never planned a baby shower and I might never again until Brynley and Aubrey are having babies so it has been lots of fun!

I am training for the Little Red Riding Hood bike race on June 5. It is up in Logan and a bunch of girls are going up and staying the night and riding together. There is an 18 mile, 35 mile, 57 mile, 80 mile and 100 mile ride. We are doing the 57 mile. Saun and I are up to 33 miles in our training and it is going great!

My business is booming and I am loving it! I had no idea it would take off like this! I am so thankful I get to do what I love while still staying at home!

On top of this Brandon was out of town two weeks ago, this week and next. Can I be a single mom on top of all that other stuff? We shall see.

Caleb's Extra Special Email

Caleb now has an email address. I thought it would be good for him to practice typing and writing his own "letters". If anyone wants to email him, email me for his address. He would just die of excitement.

The other day he got an email from Aunt Kelly. He was reading it out loud to me and it said "I love you and Heavenly Father loves you..." Brynley, after only hearing half of the conversation says, with amazement, "Is that email from Jesus?!"

Aubrey loves Bubbles

Easter Recap

We had a great Easter and Conference weekend! The weekend started out with a ward Easter Egg hunt at the church. It was in the cultural hall so candy was basically just thrown every where. As you can imagine, the kids were in heaven!



We also decorated eggs.




Saturday and Sunday we watched Conference. This was one of the first times I've been able to really watch and focus in the last couple years and wow, was it inspiring. I tried many different means to keep my kids busy during the sessions. After one of them, this is what I came upstairs to:

The 5 minutes of vacuuming it up was totally worth being able to watch half a session in peace.
Easter basket mayhem:



Sunday we went to my parents house with my Aunt, Uncle and Cousin and Wes and Saundra and their kids. The kids LOVED spending Easter with their best friends! We had an egg hunt and a super yummy dinner.

We had a great Easter this year!





(I have a cute video of Aubrey with bubbles coming soon!)
