To Eagle Idaho we go!

We took the 8 plus hour car ride to go visit our cousins in Idaho. They live in a super cute little town called Eagle, Boise is really close and a really fun city. Thanks for all the fun Downie's!

The yogurt shop, YUM!

We went to the zoo

Brooklyn trying to climb the tree with the big boys, she did pretty good!

Devon turned 7 while we were visiting, happy birthday sweet boy

Loving the snake

Trent was totally captivated by the swinging monkey's

more fun at the zoo

Don't call the cops on us, brought back childhood memories of packing in the car, no seat belts, (I am not saying don't wear seat belts) and going places with friends

The coolest Candy Shop ever

Brooklyn and Lauren watching Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory in the candy store

Load your basket up!

The cigarette gum, remember these??? My Grandma used to get them for us. O the memories

One huge jaw breaker and gummy bear

Lauren is 2 1/2 and rides this scooter like a professional

Devon got a new bike for his b-day. His eyes lit up like a Christmas Tree when he saw it.

Snuggles

Fishing

My sister Rachelle has always had a love for animals, between her guinea pigs and Lacey's rats growing up I have not been able to muster up enough love for these rodents but Brooklyn loved it.

Baby Girl Seston's Shower

I had the honor of throwing a baby shower with Laura and Sandy for Bri and her baby girl. We had so much fun preparing for the shower and it turned out to be a really fun evening.

Adorable mommy Bri!

This was the sweets table and let me tell you it was amazing. I did not bake a thing for that table so I can say that everyone who contributed did a mighty fine job. Peanut butter & jelly cupcakes, Tammy made, pure deliciousness, a bundt cake that looked as good as it tasted, cake balls Yum!, and other little treats.

Some really cute gifts! Aren't girl gifts so fun

Bri and her little helpers, Brooklyn and Shae. Bri was so patient and kind to let them hold up every single one of the gifts, thanks Bri.

Laura (the master mind behind the shower), Bri and I.

Some really great friends...Laura, Tammy, Mommy Bri, Mommy Amy, Me, and Karen

I love this picture of Bri, so beautiful

Phil came when the shower was over to help Nate eat the left overs. Mommy and Daddy Seston!

Brooklyn's First Hair Cut

Brooklyn got her very first hair cut. Larissa had the little girls lined up and one by one cut there golden locks. Just a little off the ends, a much needed trim. Brooklyn held very still and really enjoyed having her hair cut.

It must get worse before it gets better!

Nate's mom came into town to help me clean/organize. We had to keep reminding each other that it gets worse before it gets better. You clean one thing and it leads to another and so on. We got a ton done and I am sooooo thankful for the help. Trying to clean out the pantry with two little kids climbing up your leg proves to make for a log process that never quite gets done. So with Janet's help this place is looking spic-n-span!

Janet took Brooklyn to Borders Book Store, they were having a little craft thing and Brooklyn came home like this. Pretty cute.

Both the kids were snuggling up with Grandma.

Grandma made Brooklyn a "princess dress" as Brooklyn calls it. It is a curtain panel but she loves it.

Trent is finally liking Strawberries. He is not much of a fruit guy, loves the peas and green beans. I have no idea why he wants peas over fruit but he does!

Brooklyn loves Strawberries

Trent opened the color draw and crawled right up inside of it

Some other random pics...playing with our friend Beckham

Ok this really should have been in the Easter post, but I just couldn't leave it out. Janet, Ashley, Laurel, Nicky, Molly, and probably some others had a peep making night. I LOVE peeps, I mean I really love them. SO they sent me a box of them. They made them from scratch and I was very very impressed! SO cute

Brooklyn Loved them
