I could not ask for more!

We have had a fun and busy last few weeks. Between Easter, My older brother Jerry getting married, nephew birthday parties, sleepovers, and Tate's graduation it's been a blast! Here is what has been going on!!!

Coloring the Easter Eggs with Dad!
Most of the grandkids coloring away. Thank goodness it stayed at least warm enough to be outside for a bit. After it stopped hailing of course!
Kasen finding his Eggs. We had been preparing him for a few days before so he knew exactly what was in those eggs that he was finding!!
Breaking open his eggs. He had to open every egg before he would go and try to find another one. We tried to keep him from eating the candy too, but he was pretty quick!:)
Tate building his Easter Egg trail. The people that stopped by voted that his was the winner. It was alot of fun...cold...but fun! He got extra points because he made the trail through all the trees and brush. Good for effect!
On our way to a picnic at white sands. We all loaded up in the back of the truck and headed out to play in the dirt. It was so nice and warm! The kids loved running down the sand and eating it head first.
Kasen was wearing Aunt DeAnna's hat and wouldn't give it back to her. He wore it like this for a while peeking through the whole in the back...it was funny!
Colt, one of Kasen's FAVE cousins, was eating dirt and showing Kasen how to do the same. It was so funny.
I was able to go to one best friends,Courtney's, wedding bash. She is getting married next weekend and I am so excited for her, We had fun talking and hanging out like old times. It's so nice to be able to get together with friennds and just chat!
Kasen loves getting "up" on top of everything. He loves to turn the water on and play and play in it. One day, Tate just decided that he could just get all the way in if he wanted to get everything else wet including himself. He had a BLAST...and now wants to do it all the time. Thanks Tate!!!
Kasen and Colt having a bath when they came to sleep over a few weekends ago. They had so so much fun. I love Kasen being able to play with his cousins.
Kasen at Ruger's birthday party. this is where he was most of the time in the garden playing in the dirt and with the hoe.
Sweet Kimber. During Ice cream and cake time she just pulled up her chair, went where no one was bothering her and put up her feet and relaxed while she ate her ice cream and cake. it was awesome! She is so dang cute!
Grandpa playing with Kasen adn Colt. SO FUN!
Splashing in the pool this past weekend for Tate's graduation. He didn't get to far in the water, he was a little nervous about all the water and all the people. So he just stayed on his step and splashed away. He had fun!
he would splash then laugh and laugh. I can't belive how big my baby is! It's so crazy!
Tate's graduation. Him and clayton walking to their seats. It was cool because Pres. MOnson was their commencement speaker and it was just really neat to see him in that setting and even though it wasn't church organized or anything I could feel his spirit radiating and it was just so neat to be so close to him. He gave a great speech and was really fun!
Me and my MAN! I am so proud of him and that he has graduated. I am pretty sure that he is the first guy to graduate in his family. Yeah! Good job BABE!

I just loved all those pictures. Sounds like you guys have been busy! Might I add you look super hot in the picture with Tate in his graduation gown. And once again, like I always say, Kasen is so DANG cute! So when's the big move?? I'm going to miss you guys. We need to get together before you leave.
