Weekend with the Weddles


We got to go to Chanel's moms house in New Harmony and it was awesome! Skye finally got to put her red cowgirl boots to work! She got to ride horses and 4 wheelers, roast marshmallows, and play with Brooklyn. She had so much fun that when I went upstairs to get her she yelled "not go home!" before I could even open the door. Chanel's mom Sonya played with the kids so that we could catch up a little. Colt was in heaven because he got to sit and watch the Laker's game with Eric. We don't have TV so he was loving the big screen. It was fun to see our long lost pals that we used to go on crazy adventures with. Life has definitely changed since we both had 2 kids thrown into the mix. Hopefully next time we meet up it will be in sunny San Diego, I'm sick of the dang snow!

Westin's Wedding and Easter


My husband must have felt the love in the air because he came home with flowers for no reason at all. I think because his brother was getting married all the memories starting flowing back of the wonderful, blessed day he married me! HA! Really though he is just thoughtful.



Westin and Jessica had the best wedding! They had a photo booth for their wedding book, an ice cream machine, IBC root beer, cobbler, and candy to take home with you. Yes, I would put the food first, but the most important part was the wedding. Jessica looked beautiful, and Wes didn't look too bad himself. We are so glad they finally got hitched and Jess will be a part of the Sampson clan.







Last but certainly not least we had a great Easter weekend playing workup in the backyard, Easter egg hunts, wonderful food, and conference! It was a fun, eventful weekend that was topped off with great words from general authorities. I'm ready to
take a nap now!

Bribes are the bomb!



Skye has had troubles staying in her bed lately and we have been through everything like leaving the light on, taking her back to her bed a million times, and flat out ignoring her. I decided enough was enough because I can't be up with a new baby and a 2 year old. Skye is in love with her friend Emmy's princess dresses, so I decided to bribe her with one of her own. I bought it and told her she could wear it the next day if she stayed in her bed all night. Let's just say she slept in her own bed 4 nights in a row! I let her wear it 4 days in a row everywhere we went. I never thought I would let my kid do that, but anything for a good sleep right?
