Well we're off to a new home!!!

EAST COAST HERE WE COME!!!
Jon's company is transferring him to the East Coast this spring. It was actually our choice but with Jon traveling there every other week, it has taken it's toll on our family. We are not happy apart and we know this is the job we're supposed to have so the next step is to move forward with faith into the unknown!
We're very excited to be together and make this adventure into a new area! We are looking at houses in Virginia, Maryland, and West Virginia. It's soooo beautiful out there. I flew out with Jon a couple weeks and could not believe how many trees there were. It's right out of a movie. We will probably rent for a year so we can find a house we love before we buy!
We will keep it posted on what we find!!!

April!

We had some family pics finally done! It was super windy and bright but hopefully some turned out cute!




Easter!!
Here are a few pics at Great Grandma Harris' house! She hides the biggest bags of candy all over her yard with each of the kids names on them. I unfortunately end up eating a ton of it! It's all the good stuff too... ugh!

The Easter egg Hunt at Great Grandma Forman's house! Grandma hides different amounts of money in each egg and Hunter found the $20.00 this year. There's only one in all 80 eggs so Hunter was VERY excited!





Kelsee, Shelby and I! Our last Easter with Shelby in 18 months :( :(!! But I am super excited for her mission to POLAND!!! She leaves April 18th!





My friends threw me a HUGE B-day celebration at the CHEESECAKE FACTORY!!! YUM! They brought the cutest balloons and the most WOW cake! They are just the best. That is a huge part of my sadness for the move.. They are my security and my comfort when I need anything at home. They are the best friends a girl could ask for. I don't know what I'd do without them. Thanks girls! I just LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU!!!


Okay look closer at the cake. It's so adorable with a HUGE fondant bow on the front. And so good too. Chocolate with cream cheese layers and fresh strawberries through out! No calories on your birthday right???

February and March Happenings

This is what happens when I hand my camera back to Hanna! These were 2 pics of 20!
This is Bridger's Zoolander Face! HAHA
Planet Play! We went here for FHE a couple weeks ago and it was so much fun! They had really fun rides for adults and kids as well as the ticket games kids love.

I see where the priorities lie with my kids. Games for Hunter and Hanna... food for Bubba!!!

Hunter and mommy on the bumper cars. We SERIOUSLY got the slowest car ever. Hunter was so mad. I really tried to drive fast. Haha everybody made fun of us...especially my mom!!!
Yeah they kicked our butts!!! Bridger absolutely loved it! He is ALL BOY!

Rock Climbing with my cute Young Women! I'm going to miss these girls so much. They have become such a huge part of my life and I just love them!

We went to visit my Great Grandma Forman days before she passed away. We had a feeling to go see her with all the kids and I'm so glad we did. Her memory was fading fast but her eyes lit up so much when she saw the kids. Something about children just makes you feel even closer to the veil. Love you Grandma.




I love the way she's looking at the kids when this is taken. Children are the closest thing in this world to Heaven.

Time with Daddy is so precious these days so when he actually has a whole day with us, we take advantage of his creativity! He taught us how to make paper boats that are waterproof! We took them out into the rain storm and sent them down the gutters! The kids loved it!

Gotta love cozy snow days!

Disney Land!!!

We went to Disney Land back in January but I'm finally getting to my posting! It was such a fun trip. It was ours and my moms Christmas present. We also stayed in this gorgeous house just down the street. It was decorated by bedroom with themes from Disney movies, Had a huge pool in the backyard and a nice hot tub.



I tried taking this while Bridger drove. I could not find one that wasn't blurry!



Grandma's and Grandpa's. They weren't up for the spinning Ferris wheel. It's so fun having them there on trips. They are so awesome!
The kids could NOT have had more fun together!




Okay if you have not been to Disney Land in a while, the Toy Story ride is AWESOME!!!! Especially if you have a boy who loves video games! He still, today, remembers the score of how much he beat me by and that he earned the rabbit compared to my measly bird. Oh the things they remember!


This used to be the Swiss Family Robinson Tree House but now it's Tarzan's playhouse. It's cute but not the same. I miss the old Disney things.


It was pretty cold and still had the Christmas stuff up when we went. So mom bought these cute hats for all the kids to wear at night. We rode the teacup ride and watched the fireworks. Oh yeah and you could watch the fireworks from the hot tub in our yard. AWESOME!



Bridger's new obsession is Winnie the Pooh Movies. So when he saw Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and Eeyore, he was ECSTATIC! That made up for all the rides he couldn't go on :(












What a blast, our kids are already asking to go back soon!
