Kaelynn and I went to Silver Creek Falls for a day trip. It was fun. We didn't hike any but it was still fun. We took great grandma and grandpa Blackburn. They had fun and hadn't been there in a few years.  

It hit 80 degrees this past weekend and we went camping. The weather was great on Friday then it got dark and cold. We like to tent camp and boy ohh boy was it cold that night. Poor Kaelynn she slept fine through the night but the next morning was cold and foggy. She kept crying "I want to go home" It broke my heart. Well I decided to take her for a drive to get warm and Jared stayed at camp to clean up breakfast, (yes he did dishes). We were gone about 45 min. I didn't think Jared could get into too much trouble in that amount of time......boy was I wrong. He go into an argument with the camp host and was packing the tent up when we got back. Well our fun 3 day weekend was cut short and we went back home. But we did go to the zoo the following day.......



The zoo sure was fun. Kaelynn is at a good age where she know all the animals and was so excited to see them.  She love the elephants and monkeys.(2 of her favorite movies are Horton Hears a Whoo and Harry and the Henderson's, I know its not a monkey but she thinks it is) I was a lot of fun and she walked almost the whole was so she was so tired by the end.  It was also a nice hot day and felt good to get some sun.

Well Happy Easter. Kaelynn hit the mother load on Easter. Saturday there was an egg hunt at church. Hundreds of eggs fulled with candy and Kaelynn was ready to eat it all. She caught on quick that the eggs went into her basket and she was going as fast as she could to fill it. There was also a brunch that Jared and I were helping coordinate. We are now on the activity committee for our ward. It was great the gal who set everything up had an emergency and went out of town that week. Jared and I were just called and had no clue what was going on, but somehow we pulled it off. Thank goodness we had lots of people volunteer to help. It was a bit crazy.

Kaelynn and cousin Lane. It took them a little while to warm up to each other.

We had a busy week. Jared's brother and family came into town. Everyone got together and had dinner and a good ole time. Kaelynn loves to play with the cousins. I will say I got a headache but it was worth it to see them have a good time. What can you expect with 7 kids in one house.

Well it's been a while, I kinda forgot I started this. I went back to work after being a stay at home mom for almost 2 years. Yes Kaelynn my monster is almost 2. She is such a hand full. She has her own opinions an everything! Yes she is in a big girl bed now. It's great she hated being in her crib.
