The Holy Week ⛪️

Our annual Easter tradition began yesterday with a sweet ride into Jerusalem. This morning we reenacted Jesus cleansing the temple. Tonight we were having family home evening and talking about Jesus and Stella said "Jesus was mad". Our friends who were over were puzzled but she was referring to our discussion in the morning she actually listened during our scripture study, I couldn't be more thrilled.

Happy Birthday Grandma!!/ twin Falls Trip

It feels like it's been a million yeArs since I've blogged. Last week I was in Twin Falls watching my brothers children so he could take his cute wife on a vacation. I was so tired at the end of each night it didn't even occur to me to blog. Being an instant momma to four is not for the faint of heart 😉.  my parents came up to visit for the weekend and we spent Saturday with my grandmother wishing her a happy 91st birthday. She is amazing to me she lives on her own and drives and is just so quick witted. I hope I got a lot of her longevity genes. 

Road trip to grandmas house Pocatello is about 1 1/2 from Twin Falls, idaho. Bless my sweet moms heart for sitting in the back and managing the  troops. 

Dress up wedding style- we had a ton of fun with these guys last week. Hopefully we'll see them again soon!

Take your child to school day

Ice Skating

We went ice skating this week and had so much fun. It was Stellas first time and At first she was terrified but we sat in the penalty box at the edge of the rink for awhile and she watched everybody skating by and that seed to help. I took a few laps myself and by my second lap she was ready to get back out on the ice. She didnt like the walker (which you see in the picture) she just liked to hold my hands and skate. In the end she didnt want to leave, we were almost the last ones off the ice and we stayed and watched the zamboni clean the ice. 

I ❤️ library day

I really do love the library. We go to weekly story time in English and Spanish. We borrow unlimited books for free, our weekly friday night movie night movies and new music for roadtrips. The last two weeks we've been attending an early literacy class. Last week focused on math and science and this week on letter recognition. Its left each class with tons of new ideas. The best part about it is that its all FREE. The photo below is typical of the days when we bring our new books home.
