Finished Projects

I love The Wood Connection!! I have had a few wood projects that I have completed. It has been so fun to paint with my mom and sister. We made the same St. Patricks decor, which was fun to see how different they turned out depending on our own touches. I had been working on some other wood projects that are also completed, guess I have to head back and get more!! I love doing all these projects in my spare time. Another spare time craft, that takes most of it, is my bows. I love making them and keep having the encouragement to start to sell them. I may just do that!! I have to get everything together before I attempt it though, I will post some that are finished when I get them done. I just made some for my friends softball team to match their jersey's.

Temple pics- we did this with the YW with "I'm going there someday". It was fun for them!!

Wreath that I made.

I love this one, it was really easy to make and fun to do!!

This is for Hailee's room, it was so simple and easy to do that will really look cute in her room.

Just Hailee

Hailee has quite the personality. She loves to help with the house chores, loves to play with her baby, sing, and use her imagination to make us laugh.

One of Hailee's nicknames is binker, since she has always loved her binkies. When asking her oneday what her name was she would say binker and if you asked her if her name was Hailee she would say no and mention a nickname. Funny girl!! She really loves Dora, Ariel, Diego, and most of the shows on Nick Jr. Her favorite is Ariel though. She loves to play with her dolls and LOVES barbies. Jimmy saw her up in her room oneday and she was in her babies cradle listening to the mobile, which plays music.

She didn't want to get out. She is always doing something silly. She loves to dance and loves to have her "dancing skirts"on. Oh how we love her!!

Easter Pics

A little late, but Hailee had a great time with Easter!! She really didn't know what to expect when we told her that the Easter bunny was coming to leave her a present.

When she woke up in the morning I told her that the bunny came and to go down stairs to see.

She was quite surprised to see her basket and that it was full on fun things.

We had a fun egg hunt at my parents, the girls always love being together.

Hailee had to wear the crown, don't know why, but she loved having it on her head.

These are the eggs that she dyed with her cousins. She wanted them in all the colors.

My sister got a caterpillar that you can climb through, the girls love to be in there and put their faces through the holes.

Easter Egg Hunt

Yesterday we went to an Easter Egg Hunt at This is the Place park. They had it separated into age groups which was a great idea. There were a ton of people, so I didn't know how Hailee would do or if she would just freeze since there were a bunch of kids. We got to the spot that was the 0-3 year old and she was so excited to see all the eggs that we on the ground and wanted to go get them all. They said go and I told her to go get the eggs and she took off and started to collect them. I don't think that the parents should have been able to go, a lot of parents were just grabbing eggs and carrying them to their kids. It was over just as fast as it began. With all the kids that were there, Hailee made it out with 6 or 7 eggs which was fine. They all had candy and toys in them. They then were giving out free popcorn, cotton candy, and ice cream. We were standing in line for the treats and there was a little boy behind us that was crying, the lady asked where they could go if their kids didn't get any eggs, so I explained to Hailee why he was crying and that he didn't get any eggs, so her and my nieces gave the little boy some of their eggs. Such a great teaching experience for Hailee, I had her give him an egg and she was so willing to give another egg to share. I was such a proud parent to see her willingness to share to make someone happy. The whole park was free, so we walked around and looked at the park. Hailee told me that she wanted to see the animals and " it would make me so happy" if she could see them. We had such a great time and even though it was really crowded, it was still fun!!

Long Over Due

Nothing much really happens during the winter, except our hibernation. So there really isn't anything to update. We just stay pretty busy during the week and have some fun on the weekends. President's Day I went with my mom to The Wood Connection, love that place!! I got a couple of projects, these are half done, I just need to finish them, just need to get a few more things to get them done. I will have to update the pics when I have them completed!!

I have a St. Patrick's things to paint that I haven't started. I think that most of my free time during the winter is spent making new decor for my home, which isn't a bad way to spend some time.

It was fun to watch Hailee paint her own wood projects, she made sure that she painted every inch on the block.
