Kelseys Wedding

This happy couple tied the knot the end of April. They were so cute it would be a shame not to share a few shots of the day.

Taycee waited paitently at the door to see her heart throb "Uncle Bent"

The kids had a fun time running around and playing with cousins

I wasn't the reception photographer so I got to just take pictures of my kids with a point and shoot like a normal mom :)

The best I could get of them both

Our fam

The cotton candy... that Taycee couldn't get enough of. The pictures say it all

And just to make sure she got every last sugar granule... she licked it clean!

Congrats Uncle Ben and Aunt Kels

Bridals

It was over a month ago now, but I had to atleast post a tid bit of my sisters bridal session. So here is a small sampling of the beautiful bride.

Oh so behind

I am so so behind in the blog world. There are so many things I would like to document that has happened over the last month but it seems that instead of getting caught up I get further and further behind. I still need to post about my sisters bridals, my sister-in-laws wedding, Kadens pre-school graduation and other fun events but I do not have the time nor energy to do it all today so I will just start with these fun pics of the kids first real sleep over with a friend.

We invited Rylee and Cade to spend the night with us so that Rob and Jocelyn could have a night off for their anniversary. The kids were so excited, they played all night and came in filthy dirty so into a bath they went before getting jammies on and ready for bed. They spent a good part of their "bed time" giggling and playing on the top bunk.

The night went better than expected and I would call our first sleep-over a success!

It has been fun having the Egberts just a hop skip and jump down the road. We haven't been able to do too much yet because we have been so busy but we did manage to make it over to see their new place and make some cookies with the kids.

We're looking forward to LOTS of fun time with the Egberts this summer!

Welcome back sunshine

Boy how we have missed you!!

EASTER

Easter weekend went by FAST at our house... or more correctly put, grandma and grandpa Claytons house.

We started with Heathers wedding on Friday and then got up bright and early Sat morning and drove to St. George for our traditional Easter weekend.

Sat night we colored eggs

grandpa helped Kaden

Daddy helped Taycee

They both thought it was the greatest thing ever, and we spent most of the time trying to keep the dye cups upright and fingers out of them.

the finished product

Not sure what to say about this...

I am biased I know... but are they not the cutest ever??

They wore these outfits to the wedding on Fri but it was too cold to get good pics so I took advantage of Easter and snapped a few shots. Also Taycee has HORRIBLE allergies so she looks a little sickly in all these pics. I still find her adorable :D

At the temple, there was a tourist lady on temple square following these two taking pictures as they were walking down the street holding hands.

Our fam on Easter morning, squinty eyes and all.

The egg hunt.

Every year the egg hunt is intense at the Clayton home, probably because the eggs hold things of real value. We made 25 dollars from our findings this year. Luckily the little ones get their own eggs on the grass that are off limits to the big kids.

Taycee loved finding eggs, she had to carry her new easter purse and her egg basket everywhere she went.

Kaden made a haul, his basket was over flowing...

yet somehow he still felt left out when there were no more eggs to find

here is one shot of the big kids looking for the "golden egg"... I found it! :D

Hope you all had a Happy Easter.

Wedding Bliss

My baby sister Heather got married this last weekend. And I know it is totally backwards to post pictures from the wedding day before I even get around to editing her bridals... BUT, I only snapped a few while I was following them around so it didn't seem so daunting to edit the handful I had. :D Her bridals will be posted sometime this week... I hope!

In no particular order... pictures from the temple and luncheon.

It turned out to be a beautiful day, a tad but chilly but no rain at all.

My cute cute parents with Hunter

My cute cute brother and his cute cute uh... fiancé... well almost ;)

We sure did miss the other sister. :(

Kaden wants to be just like his uncle so now they BOTH smile like this.....

Lovely.

Our family hanging out during pics, can you tell both my kids have my husbands sensitive eyes... we have yet to get a good outside pic with eyes open.

For Time and all Eternity

Congrats you two!!
