Happy Mother's Day!

We had a lovely Mother's Day at home this year. Ethan sang with the Primary during Sacrament meeting. Brooklyn wanted to go up and sing with the kids really badly, too. Ethan was a little more reverent this time.

The kids colored some cute pictures for me. Ethan colored some pictures of things he liked to do with me. He drew a picture of the park with a rainbow and a soccer ball and a picture of dumb bells since he likes to go to aerobics class with me. Kyle also traced their cute little hands.

Going to the park with Mom makes Ethan happy.








Kyle grilled some yummy mango pork chops for dinner with some yummy sides. We also enjoyed some chocolate fondue.

Last weekend we went to Logan to attend Owen's baby blessing. It was fun to get together with family. Grandma Taylor had an Easter Egg hunt for all the grandkids. Brooklyn was a bit grumpy at first, but had a good time once they started picking up eggs.








When we arrived at Grandma Morrey's house, Brooklyn was interested in finding Grandpa. She saw his horses and announced, "Want to be Jessie and ride Bullseye!" She got to have several opportunities with the horses during our visit. One of the days Grandpa Morrey took the kids to ride the horses. Ethan did a really good job riding Maximus all by himself. Kyle led the horse around the arena, and Ethan didn't need any help. Brooklyn rode by herself for a few yards, but got scared and only agreed to ride if Grandpa was on Bullseye with her.
Back at Grandma and Grandpa Morrey's house, Brooklyn had fun feeding the horses.
Tonight I was explaining to Ethan that someday I might have another baby in my tummy. Immediately after saying this he replied, "One day I will have a hot dog in my tummy." He caught us off guard with that one.

A few months ago, Ethan colored this picture in his Sunbeam class. It's a picture of the world. We thought it was funny that he put our house in Africa.
