Beauty Everywhere

Spring is my favorite time of the year...it always has been, it always will! Here's a few of our favorite spring moments so far. We feel so blessed!
New sleeping bags... gearing up for the Father's and Son's outing.
K's been sleeping in his for 2 weeks now on top of his bed!

Beautiful bouquet celebrating 8 years!


First icecream cone of the season!
Silly boy for Dad's birthday.

Eggs raised locally from a lady in our ward.
Some are speckled and they come in a variety of colors. Who knew?

These beans just grew over night... so exciting!

Our first garden!

The tree I swore Ben killed, grew new leaves!


Skies are fair above us; leaves are on the trees.
Flower buds are nodding, swayed by gentle breeze.
Loving hearts are happy while we work and play.
God is in the heaven; joyous is our day.

In sky and land and river wide, the work of God I see;
Oh may my heart be full of thanks for all he gives to me.

Birds are in the treetops; bees go humming by.
Songs of joy, ascending, Echo in the sky.
Everywhere is beauty; Life is at its morn.
Praise to God we offer for the new day born.

In sky and land and river wide, the work of God I see;
Oh may my heart be full of thanks for all he gives to me.

Dylan looks JUST like Ben in the sleeping bag picture. Way too cute!! He is getting so old, my goodness.
