Manny - 6 months

Manny is 6 months old.  Danni got him a party hat with 1/2 represents 1/2 a year.  He is such a little cutie.  I can't imagine what life would be like without this little guy.  Danni is such a good mom and also allows me to take pics with the bow ties.  It's like we have two photo shoots each month.

Memorable Monday
My Kids at 6 months

Manny is about to turn 6 months old.  I wanted to look back at when  my babies were 6 months old.  I had professional pictures taken back then at Sears.  I love how they all turned out.

2 Weeks of Spring Break

Because my parents need 24/7 care right now, spring break is going to be very different.  I still wanted to do something fun each day.  Josh and Emmy have different spring breaks, so there is 2 weeks of fun activities to plan and still take care of my parents.  My kids were very accommodating to my schedule and were willing to help out that we could each enjoy these 2 weeks.   It was important that my parents get the help that they need.

ASU Spring Break Day 1 - We got this fun game at Christmas and thought this week would be a great time to play it.  Danni joined us for the game night so of course we had a blast..  One of the reasons that I like this game is because we can all play at the same time.  No waiting for other's turn.  
Dimension Game
ASU Spring Break Day 2 - We went and got some ice cream.  We have never taken our kids to Baskin and Robbins, so I thought it was about time to see if they really do have 25 flavors.  They actually have more, which made it harder to pick a flavor.  Ice Cream is always fun!!

ASU Spring Break Day 3
 - Josh took Angela to lunch at Wendy's. I was so busy and couldn't get away.  I'm so glad that Josh did something fun with Angela.  That just warms my heart
Lunch at Wendy's
ASU Spring Break Day 4 - Danni took Josh to ASU Tempe campus and had his senior pictures taken.  I love that campus and was thrilled to get some senior pics there.
Palm Walk
ASU Spring Break Day 5 - A trip to Sodalicious.  Our family loves this place and we sure keep them in business.  We need to go there at least once during Spring Break.  We even have our favorite drinks.
Our drinks
ASU Spring Break Day 6 - We rented movies from Redbox.  Movies are always fun, especially when we watch them together. 
Find some good movies
ASU Spring Break Day 7 - We spent some time playing games.  Since it is Sunday, Jim is home and can play with us.  He adds to the fun!!
Fun game
Spring Break 1 - We went to dinner at Barros to celebrate Danni's birthday.  I know that we are doubling up on Spring Break and Danni's birthday, but time is an issue this spring break.  Going out to eat is always fun.
Spring Break 2 -  Josh took the girls to see Captain Marvel.  I'm so glad that he took the time to do that.  He had some cuddle time with Manny and hit up Sodalicious.  Cant' get any better than tha.

Enjoying Spring Break
Spring Break Day 3 - We roasted marshmallows at Grandma and Grandpa Wall's house.  Grandma and Grandpa joined us in the fun.


Spring Break Day 4 - We picked out movies at Redbox and went to watch them at Grandma and Grandpa's House.  We were going to watch the movies outside, but it was a little cold, so we watched them inside.  We made the yummiest hot cocoa too.
Fun at G & G Pace's House
Spring Break Day 5 - We went to Panda with the girls.  That is one of their favorite places to eat, so of course that would be something they did on Spring Break.  
YAY - Panda
Spring Break Day 6- Danni and Angela went shopping and Emily hang out with Kenzie.  Later that night we went to Sodalicious.  We really do go there a lot.  We should try out other places a little more. I love that Danni was able to come spend some time with us during Spring Break.
Hanging Out
Spring Break Day 7- We headed up to Fountain Hills to watch the fountain turn green.  We left after Sacrament Meeting since we didn't have to teach primary.  We loved watching the fountain turn green and spending that time together as a family.  We really needed that time.
