Easter fun! WARNING.... waaaay long post!

This morning we woke up and let the kids find their Easter baskets. Then got ready and headed down to the Ogden tabernacle for stake conference. Man i thought it was hard to have three kids and my self ready by 9a.m. for church that's just down the road but to have us all ready and to the tabernacle by 9 was a joke. Then to try and entertain three kids for two hours while daddy sits on the stand the whole time was not so fun. But at the end it was all worth it. This was the only picture that i got all day of all three of my kids together.

We had everyone over to our house tonight for dinner & a Easter egg hunt. The guys played a little b ball

Hope your okay Nate :) :)

Saturday morning we took the kids to the Clinton City Easter egg hunt, the kids had fun. Tayler saw the Easter bunny and ran up to him/her? And wanted her picture taken with the Easter bunny she does not look to happy in this picture for some reason.

waiting to run out on the field and get some eggs

Daddy took the girls to the field their age group was at, and i took jace to his age. there was a huge sucker right in front of jace that he could not take his eye off of , it ended up in his bag before the horn even blew to began the hunt.

They got so much stuff, and as we were leaving the fireman said come get some more eggs we have tons so they filled Tayler & Megan's baskets all the up.( not that they needed anymore candy) But it was way nice of the fireman.

Jace trying to get into his sucker

Friday night me and my two sisters and Tayler, Megan & Madison went to the new Hannah Montana movie it was a cute show.

This is my girls being stinkers after the movie was over. They didn't want to go home and they wanted me to carry them.( they are almost 5)

On Friday Kari and her kids came over to dye Easter eggs with us.

Madison & Tayler

Tayler Dyeing her eggs

Megan with her pretty eggs. It was funny Megan kept watching everyone doing their eggs and i had to keep telling her to start dyeing hers

This was every ones eggs after we were all done. I sure miss being a kid and doing all this fun stuff myself, although i did dye a few of my own.

So these are not the best pictures of jace walking i could not get one of him before he would fall. But he is pretty much walking around everywhere if he could only push himself up to the standing position.

I just had to post this picture. Megan was watching a movie in my room and when me & Dustin went in to go to bed this is what we saw:))

Another funny picture i love is this one of jace sleeping this is his new way of sleeping. Me and Dustin find him this way all the time lately.



Well if anyone is still reading this i hope you had a great Easter like us. We are so grateful for the atonement and for our heavenly father and for all the sacrifices he made for us.

Lightning Princess's first game

On Thursday Tayler and Megan had there first soccer game. It was so fun to watch them run around on the field. This first picture was before we left the house. I had the cutest picture of them turned around showing off there numbers and i erased it arrrg:(

All the girls before the game

My little goalie Megan did such a good job she blocked two balls from going in.

when it was her turn to kick the ball out of the goalie lines to her team mates she didn't stop she kept running out on the field and we had to yell to her to stay by the goal.

Tayler enjoying some oranges during half time

It started raining so hard it was a complete down poor but the girls did not care at all. Until the last five minutes of the game a couple of girls did not want to go out cause they were so cold. Well they have to have 7 players out at all times so they needed two more girls out there and none of the four girls sitting out wanted to go out so some nice guy in the crowd said who ever gets out there i will give you each a dollar, so of course both of my girls went running out to play. Thanks nice guy for paying my girls to play ball:)

My niece and nephew came with us to watch the game . When it was a complete down poor i took jace to sit in the car, but they were such fans of the Lightning Princess's they didn't want to sit in the car. So they stayed out with uncle Dustin

Birthday boy!

So i have to say first what a nerd i am. I stayed up Thursday night way late just so i could get jace's birthday post to be posted on his birthday, which is the 3rd and so i was done with the post at about 12:30 pm so i pushed the publish post button. Well after staying up late to do the darn thing the date posted was still the 2Nd. Oh well it got posted. (I could not do it during the day cause Dustin takes the lap top to work) Well we started off the morning by me and the girls going in to bubbas room and singing happy birthday to him right at 8a.m. the time he was born he thought we were silly. Then we played around for awhile then watched good things Utah and guess who we saw on there:) Jace was except they spelled his name wrong i think they got my name and his name mixed up. Tayler & Megan thought it was neat to see him on t.v. We got jace this Cat dump truck for his birthday he loved it, he loves pushing the buttons and dumping the blocks out of the back.

This was his cute little face when he pushed it around. He is walking pretty good, well a couple steps at a time

This was his cake that Albert sons made they give you a free cake for any first birthday without having to buy anything.

The cupcakes i made

I attempted to make a cake today for his first birthday, I thought making a # 1 would not be so hard, man it's hard to frost a cake after it's been cut it's all crumbly. My nephew told me that i should just turn it upside down and have it be a j.

We gave jace a piece instead of the hole cake and it was still a pretty big slice, and he ate the hole thing he even was licking the frosting off his fingers. Jace had a wonderful birthday today we are so lucky to have such great family around. Thanks everyone for the gifts and for hanging out with us all night.

So on a not so happy note:( I went to my friend Christa's house today to take her little boy his birthday present. And as i was standing in her door way i told Megan and Tayler to go get back in the car and so they did but DUMB me left the car running so Megan climbed into the front seat and put the car into drive and hit my friends car. I can't believe how much damage it did from just rolling into her car. Man i was so mad and felt so bad at the same time after i finally left her house i just balled i was so mad at my self but so glad that nobody got hurt cause Tayler could have been standing in front of the car. Or she could have put it in reverse and went in the road and hit an oncoming car. All this while poor Jace was sound asleep in the car what a day to get in your first wreck on your birthday. Sorry again christa thanks for being so nice about it:)

Happy Birthday Jace!

I can't believe that one year ago today i was in the hospital having my beautiful baby boy. We were supposed to be to the hospital @ 6:30 a.m. for a scheduled c-section. But i could not sleep all night and at about 3:30 i was having what i thought were kidney stone pains, since i have had plenty of kidney stones in the past. So we went up to the hospital and got admitted and they put me in my room and made sure i was comfortable. I tried to get some sleep since they said were not sure what my pains were from so i just waited until my Dr. was supposed to come in at 7 a.m. So she got there a little after 7 they got me all prepped for the surgery and after getting my epidural they wheeled me back to the o.r. They got me all ready in there and at 7:55 they said they were cutting me open and Jace Dustin Dance was born at 8: a.m. We were so excited that our long awaited baby boy was here. 7lb.14oz. Proud sisters Tayler & Megan

Today i took jace to get his free picture taken from Kiddie Kandids. They did a great job, the lady asked is he always this smiley. Yes he is, that's why i had to get the top left one of him cause that's one of his new smiles except his eyes are usually closed.

Today my hubby came home from Georgia after being gone since Monday. I am so happy to have him home. The girls woke up this morning and said that they wanted to make a welcome home sign for Dustin they turned out so cute.

They stood at the bottom of the escalator with there signs and everyone that came down read their signs and smiled or said you are going to have a very excited daddy.

This was Megan's She said it was Dustin the tooth fairy. I thought it was so funny.

This was Tayler's it was so cute it was daddy, Tayler. Megan & Jace

For Preschool on Tuesday i had to teach the kids about the letter "V". We did some fun stuff that the kids enjoyed.

We made a Vase made out of a toilet paper roll with flowers made from egg cartons, pom poms & wire.

We also made Carrots (Vegetable) Not really it was Cheetos in a bag:)
And we made cute bird nests just for fun.
