Easter Weekend

We took a long weekend trip down to St. George over Easter to go to my new niece's blessing.  Almost the whole family migrated down and we had such a great time together.  It was gorgeous weather, almost like being transported to summertime.  We ate delicious food, played games, went to an egg hunt at the park, there was swimming, golfing, tennis (I didn't get pictures of the sporty activities), dying of eggs, church and might I add great company.  Prepare yourself for many pictures.

Before we headed down to Southern Utah, the Easter Bunny made an
early visit to our house so we had road trip treats and something to
wear for Sunday.  What a thoughtful bunny.

Meeting my new, little niece.  

My sisters and their babies.  There is so much cuteness in this picture.
It just so happened that Talena was also in St. George celebrating her
birthday.  I was excited that I got to go out to dinner with her and
other friends to commemorate the day of her birth.

At the Easter egg hunt at the park.  They let the younger
kids go first.  Here is Super R. showing me his full basket.
He also was quick to share the candy inside.
Too sweet.

King E and General J conspiring together on how to get the
most eggs.

This is one of my favorite pics.  Super R and B. Anu were so excited
to go on the big slide.
Getting prepared to make the jump.
I love this picture.  This is the face of a little boy in pure delight.
Me and Shel dying Easter eggs.  

Michele and Dr. C dying eggs.  He was the only other person who
was interested in helping us.
Our works of art.
After the blessing, we took family pictures
outside of the church.  Here is my
mom and me in our Easter attire.

Too much cuteness for one to handle.

Excuse me, I mustache you a question. He he he.

Perfect way to end the day, with Easter dinner.

  1. Looks like you had a great Easter. I like how Danny's tie is coordinated with your skirt.

    1. Yes, the "Easter Bunny" planned that coordination. :)

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

I've become a finals widow, if you will, meaning Danny is crazy busy trying to finish up the semester.  This has given me extra time to use my crafty skills to get our place Christmas ready.  My first creations were these little paper/foam trees.  I've seen a few variations online of this craft. I put my own little twist on it.  They are really easy to make, just takes some time. Here is what you need: Scrap paper Hot glue gun 1" Circle punch Foam cone (at most craft stores) Toothpicks Note:  You are going to go to the craft store to buy the little foam cone and you will see styrofoam glue and you will think to yourself that would be a good thing to buy for this project.  Don't!  I got the styrofoam glue and it didn't work at all.  Just go with your trusty glue gun, it won't let you down. I think it's pretty self-explanatory by looking at the picture.  You just punch circles out from the scrap paper.  Then hot glue th...

The End of the Road

There is a time when things fulfill their purpose and that is how I've been feeling with this blog of mine. When I started it, I needed my own little spot to share my thoughts and random stuff I found online. However, having two blogs has become excessive. It has been a good run (me and this little blog) and thanks for joining me. For now on, I will just be posting on my family blog . It's a private blog, but send me a message or a request if you would like to view it. Thanks to those who have taken the time to read my silly thoughts or look at pictures of my cute kiddo or some craft I made. It means a lot to me. Signing off, Jannifer

Hello Sunshine

  I've had the book The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron on my bookshelf for a couple of years now. It is a program that is supposed to connect you to your inner creativity. It may sound a little out there, but sometimes I try out there stuff. So after reading the first chapter, I thought, why not? Creative endeavors always feed my soul and as of late, my soul needs some feeding. Part of the program is to take yourself on a weekly artist date. Dating myself to connect to my inner creativity? Younger versions of myself may have laughed at this, but the mom version of myself is excited about the idea of time alone .  In pure defiance of the snow I have seen almost daily for months, for my first artist date, I decided to get a pedicure. I mostly was there for the foot massage, but I figured if I make my toes sandal ready, then surely the weather will take the hint and spring will start making its appearance. (I know, I know, we need the snow, we are in a drought. All the lakes a d...
