Random Springtime Fun!



Spring is here... I love this picture!  Hailey and Mckenzie could play at the park all day if I let them.

 
Here is another park picture.  Every time we go to a park, Hailey finds the hardest
 way up to the slide and is determined to do it all by herself!  Here she is so proud
 of making it to the top of this rock wall! :)
 

 

Here's Hailey and Mckenzie at their great grandma's 90th birthday party with
their dad and some of their cute cousins!
 

 

Skiing!

We took the girls skiing for the first time with some of our neighbors. Well I don't really ski, so mostly Danny took the girls skiing and I took pictures. :)  The girls had a ton of fun, and did really good too!
 
 
 







Happy Valentine's Day!

We love holidays!  This year we had a lot of Valentine Parties:  One with the neighbors, one at preschool, one at dance and of course one at Grandma's house!  We made lots of heart-shaped sugar cookies and ate our fair share of candy!  By the time Valentine's Day actually got here, I was partied out, but of course the girls were not!  Danny took all of us downtown to celebrate.  We got to ride the train (which the girls think is super cool) and then we ate dinner at Tucano's. 
 
 



 
Check out these cute do's! The girls and I love to find "fancy hairstyles" for me to try on their hair for special occasions! Sometimes they turn out cute, sometimes they don't!  But it is fun to try!
 

 

 

Road Trip to St. George

In February, my mom and I took the girls on a road trip to St. George to visit Great Grandpa.  The weather was wonderful so we spent as much time outside as possible!  We took the girls to Zion's National Park and did the "Emerald Pools" hike. 
 
 We thought the pools would be great going this time of year, but there was no water!  The views were great though and it was perfect weather for hiking!
 

We even saw a few deer on the way down! 

 
The girls favorite part of the trip this time was hiking around Red Cliffs.  They even went through "the crack" for the first time! 
 
 
 
 
And of course, they always love spending time with Great Grandpa!

Starting the New Year!

 
We decided to start off the year 2015 right, by taking the girls sledding on New Year's Day.  We were afraid there wasn't going to be enough snow on any of the hills, but we decided to go anyways.  This ended up being a great decision because it was really the only snow we've had this whole year.  The girls had a great time.  They took turns going down the "big" hill with mom, dad, grandma, and grandpa... but really their favorite part was going down the little hill all by themselves!
