Bensen the Grad!

School this year was pretty crazy! When it closed in March it was called a soft 2 week closer.  Well the kids never went back! Trying to get Bensen to do work was painful for all of us, but we persevered, and he graduated! 

I wanted to document our scripture reading, not every night is like this, but I love when they all want to cuddle up.

Mother's Day

Mike and the kids sure know how to spoil a person.
This year they made me a scavenger hunt!
It was so fun!
There were close up pictures of things and I had to find them.
When I found the picture, Mike had made all these fun paper boxes, they had chocolate and little notes from him and the kids in them!
We went all over the house.



I am so lucky to have these people in my life! I am very blessed! 
Thanks for making me feel so special

Happy Birthday Viv!

How is my baby 4?
For her birthday we went swimming at Joys. Nothing is open yet, so it was her only option. But it was an excellent option!
It was a little cold, but the kids had a blast!
I couldn't resist taking a picture of the last day of her being 3.
I'm not going to lie, she was super spoiled this birthday. That is what happens when I am stuck at home with nothing to do but shop online!


We sure love this girl! She is naughty and can be down right mean at times. One of her favorite thing is ignoring people. But she can also be pretty sweet.
She loves to work with Mike, and play outside.
She also loves toys! My other kids never really played with toys. She is good to play by herself with her toys for a long time. 




We are so blessed to have Viv in our family! Happy Birthday sweet girl!

Bed Box

Me and Mike got a new adjustable bed, the kids got a huge box to play with!
And man did they play with it!

I told them once they took it out side it wasn't coming back in the house.
It was fun while it lasted.

Happy Easter

One of the things we have enjoyed during quarantine in school lunch.
Mike has been busy, he built us an entertainment center for the bonus room. It turned out so nice!
While Mike built Vivian was his shadow. She copied everything he did, followed him up and down the stairs. This girl loves to work!
 It turned out so nice!
We didn't get out to get a egg kit this year so we used food coloring and sharpies.
The eggs turned out great!
On Easter morning I made everyone get dressed up even though we had nowhere to go.







I sure love these kids!
After church and pictures we had an egg war. 
Wesley won.
I also made my first Easter dinner! I was pleasantly surprised. Everything turned out and tasted delicious.  We haven't even been seeing the Grandparents. That has been hard for us.

Happy Easter!
I am so grateful for the opportunity to celebrate the resurrection of our Savior. We had a good week teaching and learning more about the Savior. We are so blessed.
