Easter Time

Every year since little Hallie Potter has been alive, we have gone to Baby Animal Days. Our little group has grown to include Hannah and sometimes Jackie. Hallie and I have always had so much fun. So this year I was even more excited because I have Brynnlee to also share this experience with.

We had a lot of fun looking at the baby animals. Brynnlee loved them and showed this by squeezing them a little too hard! When I showed her the duckling, she grabbed his bill and wouldn't let go. She tried to grab the fur off the rabbit. I really had to protect these little guys. But she wasn't afraid. I was very glad to see that.




The next Sunday was Easter. Kevin and Brynnlee were very excited to see what the Easter Bunny had left in their basket. Brynnlee found bubbles, and boy did she love them!



Brynnlee also enjoyed being all dressed up in her adorable Easter dress. She loved posing for pictures. Isn't she a doll?



Our Tiny Vacation

Early in March Kevin, Brynnlee, and I went on our first family vacation to St. George. We packed up the car and drove down. Things were great until the blizzard! I tried to stay calm as Kevin gripped the stearing wheel and squinted to see past the snow. We drove 35 mph down I15. Finally after hours longer than we had planned, we made it to St. George. Of course, the weather was perfect there!

We spent a couple of days hanging out together and visiting Tesha and her family. I went to their sealing. They adopted a little boy six months earlier, and now it was time to include him n their eternal family. It was beautiful. It was such an experience to see this sweet family add another eternal member.

After Kale's baby blessing on Sunday we headed down to Las Vegas to visit Grandma Boggio and Aunt Vickie. They were going to meet Brynnlee for the first time. It was so fun to see them hold her, and it was cute to see Brynnlee sitting in her great-grandma's lap. We only spend a day in Las Vegas--I think that is plenty.
