A good April and the End of Another Softball Season!

April was beautiful!  I love Easter and all the fun that it brings!  I love that we celebrate the resurrection of Christ and that we get to celebrate as families!

Tenley thought the Easter hunt was pretty great! 

We decorated eggs at Grandma & Grandpa's house!  Tenley was awesome and thought it was pretty fun to dip eggs in dye!  She then hunted eggs while we all watched! 

 

 

When May 1st hits on the Calendar I know that a break is near.  Softball starts to wind down and life gets slightly less crazy.  This year my softball team went all the way to championship day at the 5A State tourn.  We ended up taking 3rd to Copper Hills and Bingham!  But boy, was it a great run!  Definitely a highlight of my coaching career!

 

 

 

 

A Cold March

March brings lots of exciting things for our family.  Including baby calves and softball season! 
Tenley was a lot of help with the cows!  This girl is fearless and gets right in the middle of it all!

 

It was definitely a cold start to our softball season.  We even had to shovel the snow off of our field so that it would be ready for our first game.  It was a lot of work and pretty hilarious to watch but it was all worth it because the girls had the field ready.  We have a great team this year!

 

February Fun!

Tyler had the opportunity with work to head to San Diego for a Conference.  Luckily, Tenley and I were able to tag along!  A few days before we were supposed to leave Tenley got Croup.  She was sick, sick, sick!  We took her to the doctor for a steroid shot hoping she would be better for the trip.  It was one of the hardest times as a parent not knowing what the best thing to do for your child is.  She did pretty good on the flight, but clearly was not herself.  The first night there she was so sick that Ty had to give her a blessing.  I am so grateful for the power of the Priesthood and that my husband is worthy.  She slept much better that night and we had a really fun time regardless of that nasty croup!

We visited the beach, The Safari Park, La Jolla Cove, The Mormon Battalion, and the USS Midway!

 

We also celebrated Valentines, of course!  I love love! :)

Catch up!

Playing a little catch up after the holiday season.  Unfortunately I lost all of my Christmas pictures:(  I took family pictures for my siblings while home and somewhere in the shuffle the Christmas day pictures dissapeared. So I'll post what I have.  We went to Arizona for Christmas and had a great time.  It was a long drive but Tenley did great!  We bought her a new car seat for the trip and she has made herself right at home in it.  It's a pretty funny sight considering how little she is.  She just hunkers down, crosses her legs and is set for the journey.  Ty got a new drill and I got an awesome ice cream maker (with a sprinkle dispenser)!!  Tenley got a shopping cart, baby, piano, dominoes, bubbles, and a rocking horse.  Her Grandma & Grandpa Nix got her a cute pair of overalls, and a little people car.  Her Grandma & Grandpa Thomas got her a purse filled with little people and a vanity play set!  Basically she got WAY to much!  She is spoiled and she knows it!  It's nice to have so many people who love her!

 Also, Tenley turned ONE!!  It's amazing how quickly time has flown.  She is hilarious, sweet, and OH SO wild!!  She is beyond busy, and doesn't slow down for a second.  She loves to farm with her Grandpa and play with her Grandma!  If she could be anywhere it would either be at Grandma's house or down on the farm.  She's got life pretty much figured out ;) 

11 months!

Tenley is 11 months old!  Seriously, where has the time gone?  It is crazy how quickly time has gone!  She is the sweetest, funniest, happiest little gal i've ever known!  She brings so much happiness to our lives!

A Scaring We Will Go....

We have some pretty fun Halloweeen traditions.  We start with a Jack-o-Lantern pizza from Papa Murpheys (the line was outrageous), then we watch, It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown,  after that we dressed Tenley in her cute costume and went trick or treating at Grandma & Grandpa's house.  Her grandma even had a cute little surprise for her.  We had a fun night.
