Easter!










On Saturday before Easter, we took Rafe to an Easter Egg Hunt at the park down town. It was his first real Easter Egg Hunt and he caught on really fast. He had so much fun picking up the eggies and putting them in his basket. That night he got sick with a fever and was sick for Easter Sunday. But we still had an Easter Egg Hunt in the house for him. He had a good Easter, regardless of being sick.

Rafe's 2nd Birthday!












Rafe turned 2 on April 8th. My Parents and Grama J came out from Utah to celebrate his birthday with us. We had his birthday party with a Cars/Lightning McQueen Theme the Saturday before while family was in town. It was a great party and we enjoyed spending time with family and friends. Thank you all for coming and celebrating Rafe's birthday with us. On his actual birthday we had a little birthday celebration with me, Ryan, and, Rafe and I made him another cake. Can't get enough cake!

6th Year Anniversary!











Ryan and I just celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary, April 3rd. It's crazy how fast time goes by. We went to eat at that Grand Lux Cafe because we love it there and wanted my Dad, Mom, and Grama J to experience it. They flew into town on the 2nd for Rafe's 2nd Birthday Party. We had a good day. Ryan only had school until 10am and then he and my dad were off to go golfing while me, my Mom, Grama J, and Rafe went shopping and made Rafe's Birthday cake. That evening is when we met at the Grand Lux Cafe for a nice dinner. I love Ryan so much and can't believe how lucky I am to have him in my life. He is a great husband and father and I am so proud of him and all of his hard work. I love you Ryan!

Spring Break!!
















So for Ryan's spring break we decided kinda last minute to go to Utah. We couldn't find the sense in paying a ton of money on airfare to go somewhere warmer like Florida, as much as we would have loved to go there. We had a great time in Utah. Ryan went golfing a few times with my Dad and brother, Logan. I got to go to 3 of my friends baby showers, which I am so glad I didn't miss. We played at the park a lot and had a few picnics, celebrated my nephew, Evin's, 4th birthday, went to the Clark Planetarium with Grama and Evin, and spend a lot of time with family and friends. I got to spend a day with my sister that I love so much! Rafe loves his Aunt Sissy! We look like twins with our short hair cuts. As long as the drive was, it was worth it! It was a well needed break for both Ryan and I.

Dodgeball Champs!!




Ryan and a group of his friends from school get together every week on Wednesday nights to play dodgeball at the church. It's a nice way to take out some aggression from school. Well, a guy on their team entered them into a Dodgeball Tournament. There were 16 teams and it was double elimination. They had won every game but one and because they lost one it put them in the losers bracket causing them to play the same team they lost to again. They ended up winning against that team and that sent them onto the championship game against a team that was undefeated. They had to play two series of games, best out of 5 and they had to win them both in order to be the champions. They did and it was so much fun to watch them. We were so proud!

Ryan's Birthday!




























Ryan had his birthday this past Monday. He had school until around 3:00 and then for dinner we went to the Grand Lux Cafe which was delicious. After dinner we came home and had ice cream cake that I made for him and opened his birthday present. It was a nice evening and Rafe loved the cake.

Uh Oh, Tractor Pa!

My mom sent us a video of my dad plowing tons of snow on his tractor. Rafe LOVES to ride on the tractor with Pa and so he loved watching this video of Pa. When the video would end he would become so concerned that Pa disappeared. All he would say over and over again was, "Oh No, Pa!!! Tractor, Pa? Pa, Tractor? Uh Oh, Pa!" It was the funniest thing the first time he watched it. My mom and I were laughing so hard. This is a more mild version of him watching Pa on the Tractor.
