Annie's 10th Birthday

Annie made a haul on presents this year. We ended up celebrating it on Mother's Day because of how Michael's days off landed.

Headstart Bear Dance

Every year the Ute Tribe Headstart kicks off the annual Bear Dance. I got a few pictures of Ethan dancing. James even went out with him for the first dance.

Recital part 3

Annie & Emily doing their performance. They are together so I have to get pictures of them both during the same dance.

Recital Part 2

Ethan being a little surfer dude. My pictures didn't turn out to well during his tumbling. He did some really good tricks.

Erica got to perform tonight at recital.

Doll

I made this beautiful doll for a special friend, she has helped me become a better person in the last few years and has really helped me change my life. She was there at the lowest point and to tell her thank you I made this gorgeous doll for her. The picture really doesn't do her justice.

Doing the splits

The girls were doing their splits and everyone decided they needed to try. Michael was very much against me taking his picture.

Easter

We spent Easter Saturday with my family at Caroline's house. The kids dye'd eggs and then we ate lunch before the kids headed out to find the candy and eggs. I didn't get any pictures of them here.

On Sunday afternoon we went over to Michael's parents where the kids dye'd eggs again. Then we had a BBQ. The kids were itching to find the golden egg that Grandma told them had already been hidden that contained $5. Finally the eggs and candy were all hidden and they set out on the hunt.

Oh yea, about that golden egg. Well the kids did their hunt and Grandma gave a few clues and Ammon thought that he had it. Well Colleen had hidden another yellow egg in approximately the same place and that was what Ammon had picked up. So now that the hiding place was up Uncle Nate took it and hid it. For 10 minutes the kids looked and looked, they kept walking past it, looking right at where it was just not seeing it. Finally Grandma went on the hunt and found it. The kids were all upset but she shared it with kids that hadn't found any of the money eggs in the egg hunt. Then Grandpa hid a few dollar bills around the front yard and let the kids find them. Emily found a stash of $3.
