Grandma and Grandpa come visit for Easter/Kacen's blessing

We were so bummed when Grandma and grandpa's original trip in January got cancelled but thankfully it only got postponed a couple of months!  We love when come visit and Kacen couldnt wait to meet them!
We made sure Kacen was dressed in the seahawk gear that grandma had sent for his first time meeting grandma and grandpa.  Grandpa was matching so we had to get a picture of the twinners!

Uncle Daniel & Amelia also got to come, Amelia loved Kacen!


These boys LOVE their Uncle Gary!

Kaezli said having Amelia here was like having a little sister.  She loved it!

We were rather bummed that the snow was still here but having grandpa and uncles visit made the snow exciting again! 
They even built a snow cave


We love all the pre Easter activities in Logan, we did some easter egg hunts saturday morning

We ran into the Easter Bunny!!  Kacen was starving at this point...

Kaezli loved her Easter hair

We went to see the Super Mario movie and we all loved it!

Grandma and grandpa's Airbnb had a hot tub that the kids loved!


The Easter bunny came!

We were a bit crazy to have Kacen's blessing on Easter but we really wanted Grandma and grandpa there.  I think it turned out really special!
Annual Easter pictures!

Twinners!

We are so blessed with the best kids!

Sometimes family pictures are like pulling teeth....

We loved having everyone over for Easter lunch after the blessing


Grandma made Kacen the cutest outfit!


Jason gave Kacen a beautiful blessing.  I'm so grateful for this amazing man!


Kacen was being so serious but we are so in love with this sweet boy!
He's my favorite!

Family visiting is the absolute best!




Twisted sugar is always a must when they visit!
And so is Pizza Pie Cafe.  Gary begged for it every day!
Then it was time to say goodbye, that's the worst part of their visits!


We cannot wait to see them again hopefully soon!

The beginning of Dance Season

 March had so many pictures, dance comps will have to have separate posts.  Of course it decided to to post the pictures backwards, just makes it more fun!

The girls had a competition in Idaho Falls, we got a hotel and made it a fun weekend.  The girls loved their trophies!
It took 3 months but finally a family picture!

After the competition we went to Red Robin.  These cute cousins have so much fun together!

My drink was delicious!


These two love dancing!

It's always a fun time to get pictures of these two, there is a lot of sass bundled into these two little bodies!

Jamie helped us make dance mom shirts!

There was a grandma dance off and grandma won!

Hotel breakfast is always a favorite!

We had a fun time finding a restaurant  on a friday night for such a big crowd but we found a yummy place.  The kids loved the big skateboard out front.

Swimming at the hotel is one of the best parts of vacation!

Kacen tried swimming for the first time.  HE wasnt too sure about it, thought it was a little cold but he didnt hate it!


He looked so cute in his swimsuit!

Now to the girls first competition1  It was in Roy so the boys went to the dinosaur park and then to Jamie's to hang out.  We all went to dinner after.  They couldnt fit a group our size so they split us into groups.  We knew the cousins didnt want to split so Jason and I got the littles, Jamie and Christian got the girlies and Chris and Ray got the big boys!  It was fun dinner!

There first comp was the Arise which is one of my favorites!  They had fun and did so good!
Kaezli's team got 2 platinums, 1 high gold, 2 judges choices and 1st over in hiphop

They also won a pizza party!

Kids in america

Sock hop

All ready to go on stage!

Clown

of course we had to lots of pictures of the cutest dancing duo around!




The boys had fun at the dinosaur park while we were dance competition, even though they went through it a lot quicker than they thought they would1  Thank goodness, Jamie was willing to let them hang out for awhile!








We are so excited for a fun dance season!
