Helping with projects.

    Kayli requested a little help in her front yard and her dad and two brothers kindly came to her aide. Fun stuff! 

A little tree trimming.

And a little tree removal.

    Looks good! I enjoyed playing with the girls while the guys did the dirty work. 

    It's also been a week where Carter turned 19 and he's celebrating his big day in Florida with Rachel, so no cake for us, but sunshine and beaches for him. Happy birthday #4, middle child and all around funny guy!

An oldy but a goody!

A little throw back and present day horror!

    The first photo has nothing to do with the past or horror, just two cute girls with their Papa on a Sunday afternoon.
 
    And this little gem was sent to me this week from the WAY BACK, the summer of 1988 at one of many fun-filled girl's camps in Nevada with my cousin Sara and Uncle Mike.
This was the summer before I turned 14.

    Now on to the horror! I was reminded today of when Kayli cut her own hair, not once, not twice, but THREE times! These photos are from the 3rd disaster and the subsequent haircut she had to get. Who knew just 24 years later not one, but two of Kayli's own girls would cut their own hair and also need haircuts. Such naughty girls!

Sorry about the poor photo quality, this is what you have when you can only take a photo of a photo with your phone.


Back when we called Kayli 'Butch'. 

    What a 'fun' road down memory lane. Dang kids with scissors! They only survive because they're cute even when their naughty.



Before and after Harley's haircuts. Beau did the top style and the professional did the bottom cut.

    And then, if that wasn't bad enough, Beau, who's first haircut was courtesy of Harley, had to then go and take one more whack at her own bangs and really make it obvious. There's no hiding this self haircut.
Harley's contribution.


Beau's idea of bangs getting trimmed. What a stinker!

    So there it is! All scissors are officially band from existence!

Cutest girls!

    I love these cute grand-girls! They're the cutest! I never will grow tired of photos of Reese and the Wendel girls hung out with me today and they're always a hoot.

Baby Reese on her first family vacation.


Elliot is adorable!


And who thinks I should get Harley her own 'grandma' glasses for birthday? She's so silly!

    A great week but few photos. General Conference was great and I'm excited to study all the talks in the next 6 months. What a treat and blessing!

Happy Easter & Spring Break

    Fun shared photos of baby Reese, an indoor Easter egg hunt, a garage project and my fingernail splurge. It's been a great Spring Break and Easter and I'm beyond excited for the upcoming General Conference weekend!

Baby Reese is getting so big!

    The cute Wendel girls were pretty excited to hunt for eggs, sadly the weather forced us to do it inside.
 


The eggs were so 'hard' to find!


How cute is Elliot!?

    And Greg took most the week off from work and got this corner of the garage all organized with new shelves and containers to house all his electrical and sprinkler supplies. He's so handy!
 
    And I'm on my 3rd set of gel nails and I'm beyond thrilled, this is a luxury I'm definitely hoping I don't have to give up anytime soon.

 

    Now lets see what the Lord has in store for us this General Conference.
