La La La Latest Fun

The weather has improved drastically the past few days. When Scott needs to watch Macy to give me a little time to get stuff done, he will sit on the front porch swing because it entertains Macy. Doesn't she look entertained? ha ha
The weather was so great yesterday the kids convinced me to let them set up a lemonade stand. They had a lot of good customers and ended up with $2.00 each. We will be hitting the dollar store soon I am sure.
Macy has just discovered the piano. She loves it. She will sit there and "sing" while playing. She always watches Ashtyn practice piano so I am guessing that is where she gets it. She was born with long fingers so maybe some day she will be our little pianist.

Cuteness

I painted Macy's finger and toenails today.  She keeps studying her fingers and just can't quite figure out what is on them. 

This is one of my favorite things.  Every time I go in her room to get her from a nap she has pulled the bumper down and is trying to take a peek.

Easter

Easter is one of those Holidays that seem to go on all month much like Halloween.  By the time it is over you are very worn out.  As usual, this year did  not disappoint.  We had our annual McGarry Easter Egg Hunt, went to a neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt, decorated eggs, found baskets, and had Easter dinner at Grandma and Grandpa McGarrys.  Phew!, I am tired just reading about it. 


The kids Easter Loot.  Which prize will be inside their egg?
The adult Easter loot.  Doesn't it look so exciting?

The kids hunting down their eggs
Haylee got a pink bubble gum machine...perfect.  Now she just needs some teeth.
We always enjoy a good laugh over something, I don't recall what was so funny but apparently something was.  (from left to right: Noah, Rob, Ashlee, Dad, Mom, Logan)
Macy go in on the action too...


The kids colored Easter eggs during conference Saturday morning.  They had a lot more fun than they are showing in this picture.


Easter morning, Macy playing with the toy the Easter Bunny left her. What a nice surprise.



The Bunny hid Brigham's basket in the baby's jumper. Brigham is sure the bunny jumped in there for awhile too.


Someday Haylee is going to wish she got dressed Easter morning...Ashtyn with her goodies from the bunny.
Getting ready for the neighborhood Easter Egg hunt.  (It was a blizzard outside so we went to plan b and had it inside a church by our house)
All the kids getting ready to hunt down some eggs
Can you spot Brigham?
Success!
Hope everyone had a good day and remembered the true meaning of Easter despite all the activies going on.

Haylee's Birthday


For Haylee could hardly wait for her birthday this year.  It makes it even harder when your big sister gets to celebrate hers 10 days before you. 

She was surprised to get Heely's and is working to master them now. She also requested "high heels" and got more of a wedge instead. I really don't think I would have been happy with shoes at age 7 but Haylee was thrilled.



Last year we celebrated Ashtyn's birthday at Arctic Circle because our house was in shambles from having our carpet restreched.  Haylee requested that we celebrate hers there this year.  She got yelled at by some stranger for playing on the toys wrong so it ruined it for her.  Dang lady....if only she had realized it was Haylee's birthday.  Oh well. After that we went to the movie Diary of a Wimpy Kid.  It was a really cute show and I laughed through out the entire show.  Macy slept through it and Brigham sat so still that I thought he was sleeping too.  Needless to say I was glad we went.  It was a decent day outside so when we got home we went for a bikeride and then hung around the house for the rest of the day.





Happy Birthday Haylee, I hope you had a great day!
