Our weekend of Temple fun

I love this temple. Although I may be bias cause I was married here, but this is a great temple as all of them are. I hadn't ever been there other than being sealed to Jimmy, but over the past month I have been there a few more times. We had the opprotunity to go with some friends in our ward to the temple. This was their first time. On Friday night we went through so they could receive their endowments. What a great experience for them and us. On Sat night, they were sealed with their kids. Wow, the power of the spirit. One of the greastest things ever.

Villareal Family, it was already dark outside when they had pictures done on Sat.

My funny girl

Jimmy put Hailee in her bouncer to let her play with the toys that hang down from it. Usually she will lay down and just grab and hit at them from laying down. Lately she has been wanting to sit up, who could blame her. She is getting better and better everyday and is falling over less and less. She loves it. She loves it so much I guess that she decided to just sit up in her bouncer and the toys hand right in her face. She would just smile at us, although she wouldn't when I got the camera. She is a funny little girl.

Outting to the park

I am so excited that it starting to warm up again. I have wanted to take Hailee to the park. It was a nice day and it was warm so we put on her sun gear and headed out. She loves to be in her stroller and go for walks. She liked to the swing too. She should though cause we put her in her swing at home. I think that she liked being outside.

Hailee's First Easter

****Just a warning there are a lot of pictures.****

Our festivities started out yesterday with a 9 am Easter egg hunt. It was a cold day so we all bundled up. Me and my sister took Hailee and my 2 other nieces to the hunt. The 2 girls cried since we couldn't go into the ropes with them to help them, so that was kinda a bust. They had an adult hunt after all the age groups went. You think kids are ruthless, I think that adults are the worst. They had rules set, but no one kept them. I was picking up stuff and things were taken out of my hands and I was pushed around and so I just left, it wasn't even fun. I will just buy my OWN candy.

Later that day we went to my parents home and had our Easter party. We dyed eggs or should I say the two older girls dyed eggs, we had a hunt, which Hailee was sleeping, and had our BBQ.

Some of the dyed eggs.

On Sunday, I decided that the Easter Bunny would wait to do Hailee's basket till after church, we have early church. The Easter Bunny left Hailee with two stuffed animals, two shirts, a pair of jean shorts, a Easter book, and eggs which were suppose to have candy. We kinda had a few peices here and there and well there wasn't too much left. She can't eat it anyways.

Right when we put it by her she grabbed it.


She dumped it all out

and wanted to just eat the basket.

The Party

It was fun to go to the birthday party. They had tons of food, I even tried this bean thingy and I am not to hot on bean thingys. They were called Ranchero Beans. They smelled really yummy and so I thought if it smells this good then I should try it. Can I just say they were so good that I just ate them. I guess it is a Mexican dish, it has of course beans, ham, sausage, hotdogs, and I am sure there was a lot of other things like spices and stuff, they were just good.
Soccoro had made all of these pinatas for the party, I think she made 2. She made a sponge bob, a carrot and this zebra Juan got while he was working out of state. It was huge.

They wanted Hailee to hold the stick and take her picture. It was cold outside, so she is all bundled up.

The party turned out really good and the kids were all excited about the puppy they named Cubbie.
