Sping is here

Spring has finally decided to arrive and we are so happy about that. Here is a peak at some of the things that we have been up to.

A couple weekends ago we watched the Apple Blossom parade. Josh and I took Branson to the youth parade and he loved it so much we decided that we should take him to the Grand Parade the next weekend. It was fun to watch the parade with The Grillos, The Sandersons, Jason, Sue and Kathy.

Thanks to Uncle Jason for helping me keep Branson out of the street



The weather has been so nice the first thing that Branson wants to do each morning is go outside. Here he is still in his pajamas coloring with his chalk from the Easter Bunny

Just like in the previous post B loves riding on the tractor with his daddy. Our lawn mower is much louder than Grandpa's so Daddy makes sure that Branson wears ear protection when riding with him.
Josh and I wanted some time to do a pilates video so we gave Branson a snack to keep him entertained. He will eat anything that he can dip things in, he mostly eats the dip and while he is dipping he says dip, dip, dip.

Last Saturday we woke up to some serious rain, after spending so much time outside last week Branson wanted to go outside. After trying to tell him that we couldn't go outside because of the rain I decided that we would just go out and have some fun. Branson loved splashing in all the puddles.

Dr. Ben

Last week Ben graduated from Medical School. We were wishing that we could be there to celebrate with everyone when we learned the next best thing. The U of M was streaming it live.

Branson loved watching and cheering for Uncle Ben.

Babies, Birthdays and Bunnies

Easter weekend was the perfect weekend for us to head over the mountains to visit my parents.

Saturday Baby Girl Layton was due so we went to visit Sarah and Brian, but baby girl must not have wanted to meet us yet because she decided to stay put in mama for another week.

Saturday afternoon was my high school friend Keri's baby shower. It was great to catch up with some of the ladies that I don't see nearly often enough.
Sunday was my mom's birthday. Cast and all She made her own birthday dinner and dessert and we all enjoyed eating it.
The Easter Bunny found B at Grandma and Grandpa's house. He loved digging into his basket then did a quick egg hunt with Auntie Kati and Uncle Forrest.

We couldn't have asked for better weather when we were there. Branson loved running in and out of the house, weeding with Daddy and grandpa and of course riding on the "tractor" with Grandpa.
