then and now

THEN
back in march on a nice spring day we went to Brooklyns playground for the first time, along with the rest of pocatello, to get oustide in the 59.9 degree weather with high winds..(nice day in other words):)
MJs first time...and CICIs TOO!



everyone around these parts have bonded well with our best friend cici...including little peyton! i am so lucky i got to watch her a few fridays in march and this pic pretty much sums up peyton and cicis relationship..best buds :)

that's what i call some stylin shades
st patty's day wasn't really celebrated except for MJ showing off her cute preschool projects!

March 19th the most beautiful baby girl was born to my sissy! Presli welcomed everyone at a whopping 6lbs 11oz and is a very quiet and peaceful lil thing, we love her. everyone is happy and healthy, and very blessed to have such a sweet spirit around.





cici gets to go play at tjs moms a lot with zoey their 4 yr old boxer, they love each other and play for hours...this is after a long day of playing and they were posing for the camera


tjs dad bought cicis brother kozmo, they look like twins, and they love to play with each other too :)

tj gets the honors of taking her to puppy class once a week :) she is spoiled.


NOW
we went down to SLC last weekend for a little getaway, we went to the new mall and it was amazing!

we went to the gateway discovery museum and MJ had a blast!










it was a relaxing little getaway and we topped it off by watching conference in our hotel room. refreshing.

last night we had a family get together at my parents house, tanner received his mission call last thursday in the mail but he was in peru with my dad and sean til yesterday! so we had a celebration! coming home party and a mission call opening! so exciting and fun night!


Tanner has been called to serve in the Chicago Illinois mission reporting to the MTC on July 11! did I mention it is spanish speaking! and my dad was born in Chicago when my grandpa was in dental school!! very neat and so proud of my lil bro, he will be such a good missionary!!
a few weeks earlier mylee learned about missionaries in primary and colored this cute pic of herself as a missionary and she made one for her uncle tanner too! great timing

Peruvian presents! cuties



I have to register my MIMI tomorrow for kindergarten...can you believe?! it is simply crazy...she is so ready to go to school, she will be so smart and make tons of friends! I am excited for her, but i do not want her to grow up!
this is her new hobby and she is so good at it, she can go for 5minutes! no joke she is good.


Happy Easter weekend! love this holiday and spring time.
