Easter 2018

By
Our neighbor, Tanya, and I walked up to the fire-station by our house with the boys for our community Easter egg hunt. The boys had a lot of fun on the bounce house and getting all the eggs! 





 Coloring Easter eggs with Grandpa and Grandma VanHorn and cousins! Dylin wanted to eat while he colored the eggs lol.

 Cousin fun!



 We hosted my family for Easter. I made a hunt and pinata game for the kids to enjoy.



















 Cousins waiting to go find their eggs!
 We also went over to the VanHorn's for Easter lunch and their tradition of Real egg hunting!


This was the first year we did not buy our kids Easter baskets and made all the activities we did as our family of 5 centered around Jesus and the true meaning of Easter. Each day leading up to Easter we read part of the Easter story and watched and listened to the boys and how they are developing their own understanding of this very important day. I loved seeing how each remembered certain parts in certain ways and how much they remembered from last year! Jamin even remember the significance of the rooster and crown of thorns. Ultimately, I pray they took away that Jesus died on the cross for my sins, their sins and everyone else's sins, and that he raised on the third day so that he can live inside of each one of us and guide us and teach us! He is Risen! He is Alive! Thank you Jesus for being crucified and fulfilling every promise!

You can definitely tell a difference in our house when there is warm weather outside! Lots more silliness and fun!  Silliness during lunch...Dylin put this bucket on his head and thought it was the funniest thing ever.  Some pictures of my handsome man....I love you so much Jamin!

Road Trip Part 5

By
Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous!  Just driving in Harvey!  We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
