Jumping

Avarie's cousin Kaylee got a trampoline this past week and Avarie was there when they set it up and she was able to jump on it with Kaylee and a few of Kaylee's little friends. She was giggling the whole time.

Easter Sunday Morning

This is easter morning when Avarie found her basket that the easter bunny brought her. She was so excited if you cant tell.

Hiking in St. George

While we were down in St. George we went hiking with Tori and Jason and their kids and Matt, Kent, and Karla. Avarie had so much fun. When we got to one area there were pools of water that the girs had fun playing in and around.

This is Avarie looking up at her dad. Can you tell she loves him.

Easter 2009

This Easter was a lot of fun. We went down to St. George and easter Saturday they have a hunt for the kids and Derrick's grandfather's farm and have a big get together. Also there was an easter egg hunt at the park earlier that saturday. We had a lot of fun. Avarie loved picking up treats and putting them in her basket.

Derricks Comissioning Ceremony

On March 19th Derrick had his comissioning ceremony at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. It was a lot of fun to see and one of quorum of the 70, Lance B. Wickam, performed the oath of office. It was a really great experience for our little family. Avarie Kept clapping and squeeling when everyone would clap for their family member. It was really funny. I am so proud of Derrick and his accomplishments.

The closer we are getting to this move the more excited we are getting. We are going to go down in August and look around and hopefully find somewhere to live. I am sorry I have not updated lately. I will post some pictures of Avarie hopefully tomorrow.
