Colorado (Anniversary 2013) & Easter 2013

I'm BACK and I am hoping to be WAY better with posting!  For now We are going to cover our anniversary and Easter. I hope to touch base with whats been happening because it has be a VERY crazy and BUSY days the last 3 years!!
We celebrated our 9th anniversary on March 6, 2013! We went to Colorado for a long weekend there just us two. We also got to rent a car and hotel for a couple days. It was a lot of fun. We also went to see Garden of the gods. Here's some pictures from that time.

 We got an awesome picture frame from the Garden of Gods center and put these pictures in it. To remember this anniversary. We also got the girls little bags of colorful rocks from there. I got a COOL green shirt with bears. I will try to take pictures of some these items and post later. It was great to have time to ourselves and see family in Colorado. Our girls stayed with Aunt Nikki and Uncle Gary, Aunt Trina all of them took care of them and it sounds like they had a blast. Rollerskating rink, movie theater, park and some swimming!

                         Picture for awesome frame for a memory of our 9th anniversary together.

                                              Entrance to Garden of God's.

 We wished we could have bought this. We have had many people guess on the price and the range for guesses is 200-500 dollars. IT's REAL number is just under $1,000!

Easter and Aunt Erika's wedding, California
 Aunt Erika decided to sealed in the Newport Beach Temple which is really close to my grandparents and my parents are about 40 mins from there. It was also Easter weekend. Also girls had spring break that week so the girls and I stayed at my parents for a week. Then Blaine first drove back with Nikki then a week later flied down to help drive all of us back. We had an interesting trip Rachael was getting better at the beginning of the vacation. I got it in the middle and then last but not least was Sabreena. She actually ended up in the hospital shortly after we got home. She is all better and you wouldn't even know that she was there for 4 days UNLESS you hear her have a cough and she panics and ask MOM do I have to go to the hospital?! She is very afraid to go back. Its kind of funny. Here are some pictures of our Easter and Erika's wedding.
