Smiles!
Doesn't she just have the cutest smile! She is such a good baby. I thought Taylor was a good baby (which she was) but Sadie is a better baby! She just brightens my day everyday with her smile!
She is holding her head up so good now! I can't say enough good things about my kids! They are the highlight of my life. I am so ready for spring! I am running out of things to do inside with Taylor. I think she is getting ready to be outside too. I think this weekend is supposed to be nice! I am keeping my fingers crossed.
Friends Forever!
Umm still spinning. Aren't you supposed to fall down!
Who's behind there?
Taylor and Brylee of course! Oh these two girls are two of a kind. Everything they do is pretty much exactly the same. The way the look at you to the way they never stop going. The Gentas were over the other night and these two had so much fun together. Brylee brushed Taylor's hair (she is taking after her mama!) You will have to look at Amber's blog to see those pictures. Then we took the girls to lunch and they managed to hide behind the blinds. They are crazy but so much fun!

Easter Fun
Easter was so fun this year. Taking Taylor to an Easter egg hunt was a blast. Let me back up for a minute. We have trained Taylor on how to get candy from parades in the past. Ok my mom has trained Taylor. You don't understand how big a deal it is to get the candy. We will block off a huge area at a parade just so the grandkids will get tons of candy! So you can imagine the excitement leading up to the easter egg hunt (for me and grandma!) We had to wait outside a door before we were allowed to go in. My mom using her day after thanksgiving shopping skills inched forward to be the first in the door (which she was.) And she got the best spot in the room. Thanks mom. As you can see in the pictures Taylor is a pro. She got so much candy thanks to grandma shoveling in handfuls while directing Taylor. It was lots of fun. Jeremy teases me that those things are really for me. It could be true:). On Sunday Taylor was so excited to see what the Easter Bunny had got for her. She got Sadies basket first (what a good sister) then went on to hers. She then proceeded to find eggs all over the house. She loved that. Coloring eggs was fun for her too (Courtney is a professional at that.) Everything went great this weekend minus the meltdown Taylor had in sacrament meeting! I have never seen a kid throw such a fit. Oh the fun of being parents. Thanks to everyone for such a fun weekend!

The Wedding
Emily got married yesterdayto Arik Reynolds. Oh it was a beautiful day. She looked so happy and so in love. I love weddings! It was chilly outside the temple but it wasn't snowing or raining. The reception turned out very pretty. In the slide show you will see Taylor dancing. She seriously spun circles for an hour. You can ask anyone that was there. The music would come on and she would just start spinning. If she fell down she would get right back up and start spinning agagin. Taylor was so mad when we left. She kept saying "dance mommy dance." I was afraid she was going to get sick. She was so pretty though in her little dress and her hair curled so cute (Thanks Jess!). Sadie was so sweet and so good all day! We had a great day and we were all exhausted by the end! Congrats to Emily and Arik!

Engagement Story
Jeremy and I had been dating for around 7 months. It was Spring Break and we were going to St. George and Las Vegas. Let me back up a minute. During the 7 months Jeremy and I never said I love you, never spoke of marriage, therefore we never went ring shopping. I wasn't going to bring anything up first so you see nothing was ever said. We are both stubborn I guess. Little did I know Jeremy had bought my ring in February and did a dang good job. I love it!
Ok back to the story. It is April 1st, yes April Fools Day. We stopped in St. George to see grandma and grandpa Stucki and for a round of golf. It was Jeremy, me, Brett, and Josh. When we arrived at the golf course Jeremy pulled out a video camera to capture all the fun. At least that is what I thought. I was in charge of filming while the boys golfed (I am not a very good golfer.) As we would walk from hole to hole Jeremy would ask me how much I liked him. I would say lots and lots and lots. In my head I am thinking "Yes he is going to finally say I love you. This is great."
We approach hole nine and Jeremy told me to golf this one since I hadn't really golfed. I agreed. It took forever to get onto the green. The golfers behind us were getting pretty impatient. (Jeremy tried to go and tell them what was going on, but I said don't worry about it I will hurry.) On the green Jeremy asked me where I used to live here. I turned away from the hole to show him. Meanwhile his buddy had put the ring box in the hole. So I turn around having no clue and putted the ball. It goes clear past the hole. I putt again and once again goes clear past the hole. This whole time Jeremy is following me wherever my ball went. I thought it was kind of weird but oh well. So the third putt got really close to the hole. I go to finally end this putting streak. I look down and there is a ring box. It took my breathe away. Jeremy was down on his knee and proposed. So I got my first I love you and a ring at the same time. He even had the temple reserved. Jeremy was pretty confident I would say yes. He was right.
The funny thing is, is that only my dad knew about it. When I called my mom to tell her she thought it was an April Fools Joke. She told me she had to call me back after she talked to my dad. No one would believe us. It was too funny. We have our engagement on video (thanks Brett and Josh). I love watching it. I get giddy everytime I see it. I am so very lucky to have the husband I do. Love you tons babe!
