Happy Easter!



We had a fantastic Easter this year! Our church had an Easter egg hunt on Saturday that we went to with some friends. Ella and her friend Taylor had a great time finding the eggs! After the egg hunt we colored eggs with glitter and Elmo stickers. Ella was so excited she didn't know what to do:) The next morning my parents and Josh's mom came over. We all went to church service and then came back to our house for yet another egg hunt and dinner. Ella was running around the house, waving her arms in the air and screaming for joy looking for eggs and her baskets! Her grandparents spoil her too so she ended up getting 3 baskets full of toys this year:) She was very thankful! My Aunt Holly had all of her and my dad's 8mm videos put onto DVD and sent them to my dad. We watched them after dinner. They were so fun to see! They began when my dad was 1 year old! It was so crazy to see him running around so young! It was really cute and hilarious:)

Nemo on Ice



We took Ella so see Disney on Ice. The show was Nemo which of course she is STILL obsessed with! Josh and I couldn't wait to have kids so we can take them to all of this kind of stuff! We had so much fun! Ella didn't look away for a second and was pretty upset when intermission came. We had to explain to her that Nemo needed a break and he'd be right back.

California



We went to California for Josh's cousin's wedding (Marnie and Juan). It was beautiful! Marnie looked amazing! Ella was the flower girl and actually walked down the aisle this time! Although she came down with her fingers in her mouth and looking at the ground...hey, at least she did it:) We had a wonderful time there. We stayed at a beautiful resort called the West Lake Village where the wedding was. It was so nice to get away to some nice weather and hang with Josh's family. I feel so blessed to have married into the Wheeler family! They are awesome! We miss you Wheelers!

Murder Mystery Dinner



We surprised Shavonne and Marcus with a going away party last weekend. They are moving to Australia on March 11th so we thought we'd have one last great memory in the States for them. We first went to a Murder Mystery dinner since Shavonne and I have always wanted to do one. It was definitely an experience! Very interesting! We then had a bunch of people, including out of towners, meet at Earl's downtown for a big farewell surprise party. It was a success:) We are really going to miss them!

Visit with Cassie and Aidan!





We had a great visit with our friend Cassie and her new ADORABLE baby Aidan! It was so nice to see her and to meet Aidan! We also got to see some girls that I went to high school with. We had a blast talking about old memories and catching up. In the picture: Kelly, Bridget, Aidan, C, Myself, Ella, Kiera, and Cassie. We miss you Casseopia!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Power Wheeler!




Uncle Chris and Aunt Becca got this for Ella for Chirtmas. She usually rides it around in the basement but the weather has finally warmed up enough to take it outside! She now rides it back and forth to the park:)

Check out my Curls!







Ella is going to be a flower girl in another wedding this weekend in California. We wanted to try something new with her hair. We used the infamous sponge rollers. She got a kick out of them:) It turned out a little curlier than we had thought!
