Tea Party
Even Whit dressed up with them
Connor felt so apart
Such a fun party
I can't believe that used to fit Dallin
When we are in Idaho Whitney and Sadie always have a tea party. So, Whit was getting Sadie all dressed and ready. Then, she realized that Connor wanted to be apart, so she went and found him Dallin's old Ninja Turtle Costume and put it on him. He was so proud!! The only problem was he wouldn't ever take it off. He already thinks he is a ninja turtle, so that didn't help having the costume on. It is so weird to think that Dallin wore that at Connor's age and now he is ready to go on a mission. Time goes so fast! Anyway, it was so cute to see the kids all dressed up for their little tea party. Whit you are the best!

All Good Things...
Whit & Sades
This picture breaks my heart - Dallin has always been so sweet to Connor
What would we do without Whit?
Lunch at Wingers - we get so spoiled!
Krystal's birthday present!
Dad helping Connor bat - so cute!
They didn't mean to, but Sadie and Krystal were matching.

Yes, all good things must come to an end! We have to go back to Arizona to start our 4th year. It is always so fun to come home and spend time with family. We have had the best time and the next time I get to come home there will be some changes - I will have a new baby and Dallin will be on his mission. Change is never easy, and that is why saying goodbye this time will be especially difficult for me. I hate knowing the next time you do something it won't be the same. But, I guess that is what makes life exciting. I am telling myself that anyway! Connor hasn't always been the easiest little boy and Dallin has always been able to still communicate and play with him. He has had so much patience and love for him and now that Connor can communicate a little better they play so cute. Everytime Dallin makes up a game with Connor I feel the tears start to come. I am going to miss Dallin so much and just how good he is with my little family. I hate goodbyes.

Mother's Day was so special this year! It was so fun that Matt and I were able to see our mom's and also my grandma. It is such a special day to celebrate Mother's and their important role in all of our lives. I am so grateful for my examples and am especially grateful that I can be a mom myself. My mom really gave me the true desire and example to just be a mom and serve my kids and put them first. I love you so much mom and you are the most amazing mom I could have ever asked for. How am I so blessed? I am also so grateful for Matt and the wonderful husband and friend that he is. It is also so fun to see my sister's as little mother's and how good they are, and how cute they are with their kids - I love you Jess and Krys!! Happy Mother's Day!

It has been so fun to be home! What a nice break. Matt is doing a Dermatology Rotation here with a guy from his home ward, so that has been so fun for him. Here are just some pictures of the past week. Doug and Rebekah came for a couple of days before they left for the summer and it was so fun to see them. I won't be able to come home again for awhile because I will be too far along to travel, so I am just trying to enjoy my time. Even if there is snow on the ground on May 1!! Global Warming huh???
