Hello, Hello, I'm back. I know that isn't to excting, but I have been wanting to post for a while now, but keeping up with four kids, and all that goes along with that is taking up alot of my time, and when it's not I'm getting ready for more busy busyness. I feel like a lot has been going on lately, but now that I'm ready to post something I'm not quite sure what to say.
First things first I absolutely LOVED General Conference. I have been needing a little something... not sure what, but I absolutely felt the spirit and had a more clear vision of what my goals are. I thought that there were so many great talks on the Youth. I work with them in my ward, and thought that it was great that there was so much counsel given to them. It makes me a little scared for when my girls are that age. I guess it was just a reminder of how important it is to be engaged and aware of what is going on in their lives.
Well Easter was great!!! I loved that is was on General Conference Sunday. On Saturday we went to my parents house for an Easter Egg hunt. The kids always have fun playing in the yard and hunting for all the treasures.
Baylee and her Cheese. What a Doll.
Carson and Dallin.
My sister Rachel and I are lucky that our only boys are 9 months apart. I guess they really are almost like brothers.

My kids always remember the real reason why we celebrate Easter, and that is because of the Resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ.

But with that being said I did have to remind them that the Easter Bunny isn't like SANTA!!!
Oh Well, Kids will be Kids.

What the Heck!! Why was it so cold this Easter?

Little Avery and my Dad. Avery LOVES LOVES my Dad. She will go to him almost more than anyone else. Even me sometimes. Funny Baby.

Oh I love my little Emma. Well She's not really mine, but she could be. She was running around with this little pink hat on. ADORABLE.
Love this picture. My Hubby is so adorable. Doesn't my nephew Gabe look like he could be mine? Maybee it's the coloring of all three of them together. Gabe is so squishy. He reminds me of Carson when he was a baby.
For the girls Birthday they decided for the second year in a row to not have a friend party. They wanted to have a sleepover with their cousins Sydnee and Taylor. They are so lucky to have cousins their age. We colored Easter Eggs, and wached movies, then on Saturday I took them to get their nails done, and eat at my favorite Cafe Rio. What a fun Birthday.

On March 29th my baby twin girls turned 9 years old. I know I can't believe how grown up they are getting. It does seem like time has passed since they were born, but I can remember My pregnancy, and their birth just like it was yesterday. I don't know if all moms of twins would say that they enjoyed having 2 babies at once but I absolutely loved it. I was a first time mom so I didn't really know any better, but i have no complaints.
What do I love about my girls? Well just because they are twinss they are definately not the same. For my own Journaling purposes I'll tell a little about each.

Ok so the best worst part of their Birthday was our trip to the Mayan Resteraunt.
For some reason my kids love that place.
When it first opened they wanted to go there all the time. I admit it was fun, but the food was not all that great.

Well over the years we have gone a few times, but everytime we go they have a different menu, and a differnet set up.
Well this time was no exception. First off the divers were in "loin cloths" what ever happened to swimming suits. Ya they were really good, but that's not the best part.
We told the waiter that we were celebrating a Birthday. They brought out some cake with Ice cream and a sparkler. It was cool.
Well the bill comes and it was a whopping $ 75.00 What?????
The Dessert was almost 9 bucks.
Oh well I'm glad that we were atleast there for a good reason. Like I said the kids loved it and i loved watching them love it.
Oh the things we do for our kids.

My Sweet Grandpa Burr celebrated his 80th Birthday. He wanted to have a big dinner with his kids and grandkids to celebrate the big day.
We all went to Gecko's (his favorite place)
It was great getting to celebrate. But I missed my Grandma Burr. She passed away 2 years ago, and I miss her especially when we get together with my Grandpa.
I'm so lucky that my kids get to have a relationship with their Great Grandpa and Grandma, and that they actually have real memories with them.
Happy Birthday Grandpa!!!

Wow Marn... I am impressed!!! Nice Post! I cannot believe how old the girls are. It just makes me realize how old we are ALL getting!!! Why must we age? That picture with Avery, Carson and the dimples.... SOOOO Cute!! Avery really is in a league of her own.
That was such a cute post Marni! Your kids are so adorable.
It's so fun to be updated on your cute little family. Wow you are OLD to have 9 year olds :) I'll bet it's been fun to have twins.
Yeah, for the long posts! It is fun to read about the kids! I remember getting the call that you had just had the twins, and coming up to the hospital to have you doped up on medicine and a little out of it! Even though the premature stuff is scary, I'm glad you went through it first, so that I was more relaxed when it happened to me! You are such a fun Mom and I'm glad you are enjoying your journey!
