We are home...




Well, the move went great! We are so thankful for all the help that we received. We have moved allot and out of all the moves this has been the best one...we have been here since Saturday and are almost completely settled in, I have even begun to decorate. I love decorating my home and I love antiques and heirlooms..that's right..old stuff..lol. This house has such a warm feeling we feel right at home. We will be painting the family room and starting on our garden this week..can't wait! Here are some pics of some of the decorating...not done just yet with all of it but as days go by I have more ideas and change things up.

We will be renting the Yamamoto's house,very cute! I know we have moved quite a bit but something about Castle gate has been calling us back....not sure if its because that's where all our support is located or not but happy to be coming back!

Our Easter Weekend

Well, this weekend we had planned to go Camping with some friends,so we left Friday to head up to the mountains, just past Forest Lakes. We started out like this.....



We were all excited to be going on this little getaway,but as we were on the road Austin just did not seem to be doing well at all...he had a fever and was very drowsy. Once we got the campsite and set up all he wanted to do was sleep.So he slept in the trailer while the rest of us did a little of this...



Here is Brooklyn and a little friend snuggling around the campfire. We enjoyed sitting around the fire and a few smores and then turned in..thinking the kids would be up early. Austin talked in his sleep almost the entire night it was clear that he was not doing well at all.It rained all night...well that's what we thought but we woke up to this...


The ground was covered in snow and it was still continuously coming down. Being natives from Mesa...we are just not snow people...the kids took one look out the trailer door and ran back to the bed. It was so cold we all got in the car and turned on the heater. Austin was still feeling awful so we decided the only thing to do was to pack up and head home. The upside to this was being back in time for my families Easter celebration Saturday evening. We headed home and this is what we had to drive through!!...

That's snow!!! We were driving through a snowstorm,it was scary but didn't last too long. We made it home and headed to my brother's house for dinner and an Easter egg hunt. Austin was feeling OK off and on.





Sorry, lol I could not resist that plumbers shot of Brooklyn and her little tush! The kids sat on the couch to watch Cars and Austin fell asleep. When he woke up his temp was 105.9!! Ryan and I took him to an urgent care near bye

Poor guy we were there for about a hour and a half and found out he has an ear infection. Could have been worse :) Sunday night we did pretty much the same thing with Ryan's family dinner and an Easter egg hunt! We also had a late celebration for Austin's 4Th birthday. Overall we had a great weekend and I feel truly blessed to belong to the families that I do!
