Families

Last week we were able to go to the Payson Temple Open House. It was so great being there with family and be able to talk to Kinley about families being together eternity. The temple was beautiful and we could feel the spirit there. 

We enjoyed some more family time that weekend for Mother's Day. We were able to visit both our moms and grandmas so it was nice to be able to see everyone. 

Grandma Karen and Grandpa Kay came over for dinner and I had to get a 4 generation picture! Love these ladies! 

Kinley got Grammy and Grandma Karen to play card games with her. It was a great weekend full of memories. 

Easter Weekend

Easter is a fun time of the year and I was excited for it to land on General Conference weekend, because what a better way to celebrate Easter, than listening to the prophet and apostles? It is truly what Easter is all about. We also had some fun during the weekend as well. 

With Grammy's help, Kinley made her bunny cake

 On Friday night we had the Batty Family Easter Egg Hunt at Uncle Roy's

There are always so many eggs, good food, and lots of kids to play with

Basket Found!

We were up at my Grandma Karen's on Sunday to watch conference and have an Easter egg hunt in between.

Starting the New Year

We continued our Christmas celebrations into the New Year. On New Years Day we headed over to Dusty's parents to have our Christmas with them. It was a fun day. The girls all got princess dresses. They were a hit

Before school started back up we met up with Tia and her family at Fat Cats in Ogden. There was bowling, miniature glow in the dark golf and presents. It was a very fun day

 

 Tia Tia got Kinley the Bitty Twins - they were a hit!

Kinley was excited to go to a friend's Frozen birthday

Christmas

We had a great Christmas that was really relaxed and a lot of fun. Christmas Eve we went to Tucanos for dinner and on Christmas Day we relaxed, opened presents and then went to the movie Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible No Good Very Bad Day. It is one of Kinley's all time favorite movies.
