MacKay-grams April!


General Conference Weekend
Jason is so great at spoiling me every now and then!


Jacob is becoming quite the origami master.  
He looks up patterns on Pinterest and Youtube and makes some pretty sweet stuff!  
I think these may have been inspired by my Fruma Sarah claws.

Brookie was so proud to be my helper in the kitchen--using a REAL knife and making fruit salad!

Recent crochet projects!  The RS asked my if I could make something for new mothers in the ward, and I thought hats would be fun.  So here's what I've made so far--haha!  I'm such a geek!
 



We kept busy over Spring Break!  The Springs Preserve was pretty awesome!








I love kites.  
We had a park day with the Takos's and Ethan really got into the kite flying! 
He was so cute and so focussed.  It was awesome.

For Bella's birthday, Shannon gave her several options for celebration.  The one she chose was to take one friend to Build-a-Bear--and she chose Brookie!  It was the sweetest thing.  Thank you Shannon and Kevin!  Brook was in heaven and LOVES her new bear! 




Counting down the days until baby girl Archibald is born!  We decided to throw Shannon a little surprise baby shower.  Kevin pretended to take her out to dinner, dropped her at the front of the restaurant, and left--haha!  It was a fun night-- and yummy food--thanks Dawn!I 
I finally finished the blessing dress for Shannon.  It's the most complex pattern I've made thus far.  Very happy with how everything turned out!

Christmas in April!
We spent Christmas in Vegas this year and, due to truly extreme weather conditions, my parents plans to visit in January were delayed.  So, they came to Vegas for a few days before we left for our Cancun trip(more posts coming!) The kids were in heaven having Nana and Papa around.  Grandma Louise came too--to see me in Fiddler!!!  It was so great just visiting and eating and being together.




Happy Easter!



 We all had fun Easter-egg hunting in Davis's back yard.




 Cousins are the BEST!
