Weekend In Logan

Last weekend we went to Logan for Jillian's graduation. My parents had been down helping Cammie pack the moving truck so Lydia and I caught an early ride up with them. We stopped at McDonalds on the way there for dinner. Lydia really enjoyed the play area there. She could climb up the stairs to the slide and go down the slide all by herself.My mom had set up a chair for Nathan so that Lydia could use the booster seat while they watched tv. However, Lydia wanted to sit in the chair too so my mom went and bought another one for her.
My dad had brought in a load of dirt to add to the horse corral, and Lydia loved playing in it.Hollie has to be right where the kids are at all times.
Nathan also enjoyed himself. At one point he slid down the dirt pile and said it was a slippery slide.Lydia is obsessed with my dad. She even knows how to say Grandpa. She kept wanting to either be held by him or to get into the tractor with him.Lydia and Nathan also just had fun playing in the tractor.
Nathan has been obsessed with compost lately and he wanted to plant some seeds in the compost so he could watch them grow. My dad helped him plant the seeds.Nathan kept asking if he could hold Lydia.On Saturday we went to Jillian's graduation from Utah State. She received her bachelors degree and even graduated with honors!! Lydia had been feeling sick due to teething so Justin and her stayed at my parents' house so Lydia could sleep, so they didn't get to go to the graduation.
After graduation we all went to Pizza Pie Cafe for dinner and then back to my parents' house to just hang out. On Sunday, Cammie and Dan left early to start their drive to Georgia. The rest of us went to church and then had a nice Mother's Day dinner of swiss steak that my dad made.

Moving Cammie

Cammie, Dan, and Nathan just moved to Georgia (well, technically Nathan is still living with my parents for a few more days before he moves there). Before they moved they needed to get their back lawn in, so we had a sod laying party. Nathan and Lydia were the biggest helpers.Lydia stood up by the wheel barrow all by herself. I guess she was feeling left out that she didn't have one of her very own like Nathan does.It looks like Justin was the supervisor.Nathan works harder than most adults do.After a while, Lydia and Nathan went inside to play. They were fighting over who got to be in the car.Nathan at one point was trying to help Lydia get in and was yanking her on the arm and trying to pull her. It was entertaining watching the two of them fight over who got to sit in the car.They sure are going to miss each other!

Wheeler Farm

A few weeks ago Lydia and I went to Wheeler Farm with Cammie and Nathan. We wanted to get a few pictures of them together for my mom for Mother's Day and also just to have some of the two of them together before they moved to Georgia.They were both really good, just at different times. If Lydia was looking at the camera, Nathan was looking away. If Nathan was looking at the camera, Lydia was crawling away.Cammie decided to cheat a little and decided to buy them a candy stick. They both enjoyed it. Lydia wouldn't let me touch it after she started eating it. She had drool dripping down her face and had sticky, sticky hands.They sure have fun together.

Three Wonderful Years

Justin and I celebrated our three year wedding anniversary yesterday. We didn't do anything too fancy seeing how he had to work and we had Lydia. However, we were able to go out to lunch and then run to the store real quick during his lunch break.We had plans to go to the Olive Garden for dinner, but those ended up getting changed. When we got to the restaurant there was a twenty minute wait. Justin and I didn't think that it seemed that bad, but Lydia on the other hand thought it was way too long. About ten minutes into the wait she just started screaming and didn't want to be held anymore. We figured that this is how she would probably act during dinner too so we decided to just head home. We stopped at In-and-Out Burger from some drive-through and took it home to eat. So romantic!
Justin and I have loved being married the past three years. We've gone through a lot of changes together in such a short time. We've had some fun times and some not as fun times. We are grateful to have been married in the temple so we can be together forever! I love you babe! Happy three years!

Identity Crisis

Daisy has been going through an identity crisis the past few weeks. She is always standing on the back of our couch. She has also started sleeping up there too. What a weird dog!

Coloring Easter Eggs

We colored Easter eggs on Sunday after church. Justin and I didn't color eggs last year so we decided we wanted to make sure we did it this year.Plus, Jillian and Brady were here so it made it a little more fun too.Justin got all technical about how he did his eggs. He made sure he had the egg holder thingy to dip his eggs with.Lydia liked holding the eggs and for some reason, she thought it was fun. I love how she has her feet up on the table. She is always trying to recline and always puts her feet up. So cute!Lydia and BradyLydia and JillianLydia and JustinMe and LydiaThe finished productsAnd enjoying the finished productsLydia actually watched Justin crack his egg open and then started doing the same with the egg she was holding. She is such a smart little girl! We had a fun Easter and were glad that Jillian and Brady came and hung out with us.

Easter Morning

We bought Lydia a cute, little dress for Easter to wear to church. We tried to get some pictures of her in it, but Lydia always tries to crawl away because she doesn't like sitting in one place.We also took some pictures or us with Lydia.Also, some with Jillian and Brady since they spent the weekend with us.
