Fun Times!



On the only nice day in March we took Hunter to the park to play. He loved it. They have lots of things to do at this particular park. It usually crowded, but on this day it wasn't so that was nice.
Last weekend my mom offered to babysit overnight and let us have night away!! It was so nice, thanks mom! We stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn and went to the Cheesecake Factory. I have never been there, it was good. We had to wait for like 2 hours though. On Saturday we went to Temple Square and walked around. It was so nice out. We were able to toured the Conference Center. I took a picture of the pulpit because they said it's normally down, so people can't see it. On that day they were actually cleaning or something like that and it was up. We were only 3 rows away from it and it is so beautiful so I had to take a picture, who knows if we will ever be that close to it again. After we were down walking around Temple Square we met my mom at Heritage Park. I have never been there and would recommend it to everyone! It is across the street from the Hogle Zoo, and is the place where Brigham Young had a vision of where the Temple would be built. They have a little village to tour and a train you can ride on. We weren't able to go to the village because they don't open that till May, but it was still fun.



Daddy takin' his boy for a walk. LOL. He is so fast so we decided to get him a "leash". It works really well, and allows him to walk by himself. He still falls alot so this helps with all the bumps and bruises!

Outside the Mayan restaurant is Salt Lake. They have a snake that curves around and serves as a bench. He loved playing on it!

He has really become interested in books! He wants to read them, but no be read to. Funny boy!


This was before church yesterday, Hunter was not holding still so I made Brian hold him. Hunter wasn't too happy about that.

Happy St. Patty's Day!!














For St. Patrick's day this year, my friend Amy brought her kids over and we made GREEN sugar cookies. They weren't as green as I hoped they would be, but that's ok. We let Hunter and Karley decorate their very own cookies. I gave them each a bowl of icing and 3 cookies. Karley did awesome!! Hunter on the the other hand couldn't care less about decorating, he just wanted to eat the icing. I showed him how to do it and he still wouldn't even try it. It was still fun. The other day while we were at Target, our favorite store, we found matching shirts for all 3 kids. They say Kiss Me I'm Irish. They were on sale so we couldn't pass them up. It was a fun day and something different. They are so fun at this age!! Thanks for coming over Amy, it was a blast!!

Broken Camera

On Tuesday Brian accidentally broke my camera. It was on the table and he had put his jacket over it and when he grabbed his jacket it made my camera fall off and hit the ground. I didn't think any thing of it until he turned it on to get a picture of Hunter and the screen was cracked. We called Inkley's and it is going to cost $150 to repair it. The funny thing is we only paid $189 for it. So we are searching for a new one. I loved this camera, it was so easy to use and took really good pictures. So far we have been to 2 different stores and they don't have anything in our price range that is as good as my old one. I am so sad over it. I know it's just a camera but it is the thing that preserves our memories. Hopefully I can find a good one that doesn't break the bank!!

Gracie

I have been debating whether or not to post this. One morning a few months ago I couldn't sleep so I went from blog to blog and came across Gracie's blog. She has really touched me. She is a very sick little baby. She was born with a heart defect that is life threatening. Every few weeks I would check in just to see if she was doing ok. Well, the last few weeks she has gotten worse. She was going to go have a surgery done that would help her feel better, but her heart was to weak. They ended up listing her for a heart transplant. One week later she got one, except it wasn't a good heart. No one had any idea that it wasn't going to be a good heart until after they placed it in Gracie. She is now on life support and waiting for the doctors to decided what is best for her. I don't even know this family, but have been praying for a miracle. I just thought that the more people that know about her, the more prayers, the better chance she has of making it through this difficult time. As a mother, I could never even imagine this type of thing happening to my baby. If something were to happen I would want as many people praying for my baby, so that is why I finally decided to post this. If you want to read more about her and her family here is the link to her blog http://thegledhillfamily.blogspot.com/
