Spring is here

It has been fun watching spring SLOWLY approach. It’s 5-7 degrees cooler for us up here in Mountain Green compared to the valley. We installed a play structure that has already paid for itself in entertainment value! Avery and Dex LOVE it as well as all of the other neighbor kids. It’s like a party everyday around here.

Trevin finished filling our vegetable boxes with top soil. So hopefully we can plant next weekend. And veggies won’t be the only thing growing around here! We signed up for round 3 and our 3rd baby will debut at the end of October.

We had a nice Easter although there was still quite a bit of snow on the ground. It was a pretty warm day. However, the Neighborhood egg hunt from the week before was in full snow gear ☺

We made another trip to St. George during the first of April with all of the Bleggis. The guys rode motorcycles, golfed, and biked. The girls just hung out! And, believe it or not, I forgot my camera AGAIN!

I’m saving up for a new camera so I haven’t been quite as motivated at capturing the moments with the old camera. Here are some fun photos as of recent. Dex seems to be at the age of Kodak moments, so you’ll see several of him. Trevin might not think that Avery’s dress-up tea party with Dex counts as a Kodak moment.

Avery claims that she’s “all about fashion.” I’m so excited about that especially since she’s only 5! Ha, ha! Everyday is a struggle to find the perfect outfit and hair. She just finished preschool and should probably be transferring into 8th grade!

I’m finished with work in 3 weeks and counting, hopefully I can pursue my digital hobbies more then. I did run a 5K last Saturday am. (not very competitively) I’ve been following a very inspiring blog. A baby with meningitis and his family’s journey through a huge trial. Check it out only if you have emotions of steel or a tissue near.

The first photo was taken of Trevin and me in Lake Powell 12 years ago this month!
