DeAnne...who the heck knows what she was doing! pretty crazy aunt i have!

So I went on a girls trip with some of my family! Let me tell you, they are completely nuts! I think I'm the only normal one of them all. Just kidding! They get me pretty crazy when I'm with them. We drove down to St. George in April. We got going and hit a BLIZZARD! so we decided to pull off at Beaver and spend the night. We luckily found a really nice hotel further in town. We were thinking of staying at one and it was full of truckers and was pretty getto! This was such a fun trip. That night we played truth or dare. We were so dumb but we were laughing the hole time! I love these trips cause my mom lets her wild side out and it's so fun. The bottom 2 picts are my mom and her baby sister. We were told to pack light and De came with a huge suitcase that took up a full seat. As you can see, my mom had hardly anything and we were laughing our heads off at the difference in them. De had 4 outfits for each day and 20 pairs of shoes and jewelry to match everything. The iron man was going on during the weekend that we were there and we decided to go watch it. It was pretty crazy! Those people that do it have some determination! I wish I had alittle of it. We were the crazies that stayed tell the very end. We went yard saling and drew names and had to find each other a treasure for the day. It ended up being pretty funny. I love that some of my very best friends are my family! We have so many funny stories to tell that I would go on forever. We got lots of free food and did plenty of yard saling to last me over for the year. Fun times!!!

Disneyland here we come!

It's a dang good thing we just got home from Disneyland! This trip happened because I was uploading my blog back in feb and saw all our Disneyland pictures. I was sitting at a park after and asked my friend Melissa if she would want to come with me. Layne was leaving out of town the next day so we decided to leave Thurs night, stay in vegas drive to our hotel friday and do disneyland sat then drive home sunday! Let me tell you, it was so completely worth it! I'm ready to do it again. My parents kept Derek for me and we left the park and went home and packed and left 2hrs later! It was so much fun having that one on one with My! We went swimming when we got to our hotel Friday and then spent the entire day in disneyland Sat. I wasn't ready to come home at all! It was so much fun to just decide last minute and pack our bags and go. We had lots of treats inside the park and had a really good time. Love this memory I have with my little girl!

Derek!

Ok, so since I just finished my last book from all of my blog I am determined to get going again on this thing! There will be lots of old picts but I want them for my books. These are of Derek down in lake powell this summer. He was 16mo. Love this boy!

Derek begging to go outside with his sister! She was blowing bubbles.

We went to ride the horses with Layne's family. Mylee was in heaven! Derek was trying so hard to get on the other side of the fence with the horses too. They loved it!

Yehaw!

Happy Easter! The kids followed their trail of candy to the easter baskets the bunny left for them. They loved it.

Kait, My, and Derek.

We went with Laynes family to Gordies and rode horses one night. The kids LOVED it! My is completely obsessed with them right now! She talked about this night for a long time!

Easter!

I am SO behind on this thing! I am going to try and catch up. Laynes mom has an egg hunt every year. One for the kids and one for the adults. It was so fun. Joel has seemed to score the last couple years. He always finds the mother load but he is always willing to share too. This year he hid 4 different bills on his body and we chose which one we wanted. I was laughing so hard when he did mine. I'll just leave it at that.

All my side got together at Shel's house and we had a picnic and egg hunt. The kids had so much fun this year

We were really bored and decided to take the kids down to the city one. It was crazy! They had fun though.

Us coloring eggs. Mylee LOVED it this year. Derek had fun watching. I didn't let him do much but he was completely content watching.

boring winter night turned fun...

Layne got me a tent for christmas. If you know him that is huge! His way of camping is a cabin. We decided to order pizza, roast marshmellows and watch princess and the frog. It was such a fun night. We let Mylee fall asleep and then moved her and us to our beds. We didn't even attempt to let Derek sleep out there. He was straight to his crib but they both had so much fun.

Random things. Mylee finally letting Derek play with her! Mylee reading hiponotamus with the books on tape. She loved it!

happy 32 layne!
