Awwww

Isn't my husband so sweet!?! I had a good Mother's Day and he made it even better with that previous post from him. Jared and the kids made me a scavenger hunt that took me all over the house to find all my favorite treats/little presents. What a sweet guy. And he has a pretty cute tushie, too.

Sorry honey, I had to :)

Speaking of Mothers, this post is going to be the mother of all updates. The problem with slacking on updating your blog is the pictures really add up. Here's what we've been up to the past few weeks:

I love this picture of my kids. Carter plays computer games while Hayley sits and watches. These two are best little friends and they get along so well together. I hope they always remember how lucky they are to have each other.

Our friends moved away, and I took this picture of the kids the day before they left. Carter misses his little buddy Jordyn and keeps asking me, "why do people have to move away?". It's quite sad.

We went to a Rodeo a couple weeks ago. I think I was more excited about dressing my kids up for the Rodeo, than I was for the actual Rodeo.

This is the only picture because, despite looking adorable, Hayley was not in a picture-taking mood.

With the weather getting warmer, we had our first hot-dog roast of the year.


Have I mentioned I love where we live? These mountains take my breath away every dang time I look at them. It's annoying actually (the whole losing-my-breath thing).


We got to see our good friends the Jarmans. Once again, I always just take pictures of the kids. They're the cute ones.

And yet another hot dog roast/quading, this time with some friends.



This past Friday, we took part in the Move for Health Day in BC - a 3k walk through town. Then we went quading, where we found a picturesque little area and took even more pictures of my outdoorsy kids. They love it.



On Saturday, we went to the Kootenay Children's Festival in Cranbrook. There was tons of fun stuff for the whole family to do, and the best part was it was all free!





It was super fun, we'll have to remember to go back again next year.

This week, we are just chilling at home hoping Hayley recovers from her cold. She's pretty congested and her eyes and nose keep running. She keeps saying, "Mommy, I have more crying on my face" when she wants me to wipe her watering eyes. Poor gal. We need her to recover in time to head up to visit Grandpa, Grandma and Auntie Carly this weekend. Fingers crossed.
