Great Cousins

This is Nyah and her cousin Raegan...they are about six months apart and destined to be great friends. Yesterday they started interacting for the first time


This is a video of Nyah playing with her other cousins...she laughed so hard for about a half an hour she couldn't breathe and started coughing . The best squeals and laughs took place after I shut off the camera (of course.) But the video is still pretty cute!!




Nyah is coming up on her 6 month mark this week! She is really starting to get the hang of sitting up!

Fun With Great Grandma


This is Nyah and Great Grandma Kress...last Monday Nyah and I took a drive to Rockland ID. Possibly the smallest town in the world? This is where Grandma lives and tends to her magic garden. Growing up I would eat fresh peas out of the pod and listen to the birds sing in this garden. I wanted to help plant it with her this year so we went up. However, it was too WINDY :(. So we did puzzles, watched who wants to be a millionaire, ate tuna fish sandwiches and went for a walk.

I always tease my mom about the hands she passed on to me and I think got passed on to Nyah...this is where they came from...Grandma Kress. So here is a 3 generation hand photo (just missing my mom's.)













Since we couldn't garden we went for a walk...and Great Grandma might be old but she was MOVIN!

We spent the weekend in St. George at the races.


"Close But No Cigar"

So, as many of you already know...we took a little drive. After the horse races in St. George we thought we'd check out the Grand Canyon. We drove 100 miles to find out it was CLOSED FOR THE WINTER!!!! So all we got to do was stop at this crumby souveniour shop...



This is our family photo "in front of the Grand Canyon"




I don't think Nyah minded at all





I tried to Ninja-kick the gate down so we could get through...Didn't work!



We were WAY bummed about our wasted drive so we checked our GPS for another point of interest in the area...we found that there was a great cave not too far from where we were...and...it was freaking CLOSED!!!!!

Nyah's First Swim




A couple of bathing beauties.

Nyah's Easter Dress


EASTER BLISS


Every year Connie puts on the most FABULOUS Easter extravaganza!! We look forward to it every year...this was Nyahs first year to participate. (Well hang with Grandma while her parents pushed little children down to get to the eggs in the yard.) :)

I requested that my Easter basket be hid in an easy place (I guess hanging from the chandelier in the entry way is considered easy?) :)






This is Nyah at the doctor just before she gets her shots ... I hate shots, it is so sad! She has no idea whats coming. :(
