SISTER BANDA

I know it shouldn't be possible but we now have a niece serving a mission. We were able to go to Washington the end of April to be there when she went through the temple for her endowments and for church for her mission farwell. The day of the temple session Renton wasn't feeling the best so we didn't feel comfortable leaving him with a sitter so Ryan went through the temple and I stayed with the kids. It was great to walk around the temple grounds with the kids, I love seeing the light and joy in their eyes when they see the temple. 



Shauna! I love this girl so much!


 There was a park next door to the temple so we went over and let the kids play for a bit. Josh and Matt were great help in keeping the kids entertained.

Allison is now serving a mission in New England. We are so proud of her and this decision. She is such an amazing woman and I am sure the people of New England are so blessed to have her.  
 After the temple session we went over to Steph and Gordons where we celebrated Samantha's birthday. They were fully equipped with a couple of bounce houses that kept the kids fully entertained with only a few mishaps.
Royden had a blast playing with Uncle Greg


While we were on our trip Reagan lost his first tooth. Why do they keep growing up?

Royden really enjoyed watching the eggs change colors this year. 







 Like always the Easter Bunny was sneaky and hid the kids baskets. Leaunas was in the pantry, Roydens hidden behind the couch, Rentons in his bouncer, Reagan's was in the microwave, Rylands was in the towel closet, and Lydia's was in the bath tub.



Mom and Dad got a couple surprises for the kids also!












Baby boys first easter!
















And the sixlets! I love the boys matching vests! I have the best kids!

And the best family!
