Change of plans

These days it seems my life is filled with changes of "the plan". 

We have tried to visit my parents in Mackay three times and either I have been sick,  the kids have been sick, or someone at my parents house is sick.  We changed our plans a couple of weeks ago and visited Jason's parents instead.  Jason's brother Jeff was there with his family, the kids love to play with their cousins and see grandma and grandpa here are a couple of pictures of that weekend.











Jason also celebrated a birthday in February.  Truman, Elleree, Beckett and I decided to take Jason a cake and balloons while he was at work.  The kids really enjoy visiting him, and it made his birthday a little more special.  Here is a picture of his birthday.

Another change of plan was we had to cancel Beckett's blessing.  So we rescheduled it for this last weekend on March 6th.  It was so wonderful to see how many people were willing to come.  Some of the roads were not very good and yet they still roughed it. 

Jason's parents and his sister came over on Saturday to watch the boys play in their last basketball games.  Dillon played awesome he made like 7 baskets.  He was on fire. Truman has yet to master the game.  5 minutes after the game started he was asking us when he could go home.   

It turns out blessing your baby is like having a baby shower.  Beckett got so many gifts!  My Aunt Kit made him the cutest blanket, Crazy lady gave him a monkey onesie (might I add here how smoking hot she looks, she has been working hard) , Roberta made a sweet wall hanging that I love.  Our friends R-Jay and DeAnna came with there two munchkins bearing gift.  Some of my cousins came and so did Heath and Emily, with Peyton.  It was so nice to spend time with everyone.



 This is what Elleree is always doing to poor Beckett.  It is a good thing that he is such a good natured baby!

Elleree decided to help herself to my lipstick that morning.  Kids!








Last change of plan was that right when Jason and I were coming to the realization that our house was not going to sell and we started to make other plans.  We got and offer, so for better or worse our house in Idaho Falls is gone. 

I decided on a new plan.........I am no longer going to make plans!

I'm so glad your house sold, luckies! I might trade the cruise for a sold house at this point. Maybe.....Will you guys come to Blackfoot next week and see my kids?

Hurrah!!
The house is sold. Now if only to find a house where you are.

I'm so glad you were all healthy enough to have the blessing for Mr Beckett. Wish I could have been there.

You all look so cute on the blessing day.

Glad to hear your house sold! That's got to be a load off your mind. Plans do often go awry and you just have to go with it. I have to change plans every day. I come to work expecting to do certain things and almost every day it doesn't turn out that way. I guess it's what makes life interesting. Thanks for the pictures of the fam. It's always fun to see how your munchkins are growing and changing!

It was so fun to be able to be there for the blessing and get to visit a bit with y'all. Your little family is so cute. And YOU look pretty darn fine for a new mom 4th time around!
I wish I could have seen those boys playing b-ball. Kids that age are a blast to watch. Looks like Miss E has the glossy lip smacking thing down pat.
Glad to hear the house sale is official. Who knows what the heck is up next?! I can never remember what I'm supposed to be doing anyway, so might as well change plans.
Love you MIssy!
