Mother's Day Weekend

Saturday morning we headed down to Ephraim, where we spent most of the day with Felicia and Nate at the farm.

Eve was in hog heaven with all the dirt, animals, and freedom to roam a girl could ask for. We went skeet shooting there on the ranch, here she is holding a clay pigeon and sporting her orange ear plugs.

Adia had lots of fun telling us "good job" every time we hit one.


After shooting we went to watch Uncle Nate feed the horses, we got to stop and see the new colts that were so cute. When we got there the kids got a turn at sitting on one of the horses, Bucky I think was his name.


Like I said Evelyn was in heaven, she got nice and muddy and loved every second of chasing Nate's dog Spade.

It was so great to spend some time with Felicia and Nate, Kaylee and Kort. We had so much fun, we'll have to do it again soon.


The next day, Sunday, was Mother's Day. Neil got up and made blueberry muffins with the kids. Then we went to church, Eve and Adia did a great job singing in sacrament meeting with the rest of the primary kids.

Church starts at 11, which is also the time of Lily's first nap. So church is usually a little rough for us both. Soon after Sunday School started she became fussy so I took her into the Mother's Lounge and sat down to rock her. She didn't like that one bit and ended up rolling around on the floor while crying her little eyes out... This is the end result.


A 45 minute nap on the Mother's Room floor. I'll take it if it means a happy baby.


After church Neil promptly got to work putting together my Mother's Day gift. Evelyn and Adia were very helpful.


And here it is! I love it! Its so wonderful to be able to just sit outside and watch kids play.
