Fun times with Papa

Life in Florida is FUN-mostly because Papa plays with tents- wagons AND feeds the catfish!!

Jason and I had a ROAD TRIP!!! It was a bit of a blur-- because J was tired and I was VERY sick!

we saw lots of pretty things...

and listened to the whole last 2 books of the Hunger Games...

and ATE our way through the US-- but if I don't eat-- I barf...

We also dealt with a LOT of horrid weather-- like blizzards and tornatos-- yay-- the ones in Texas that destroyed the state- we were there! BUT we made it safe and sound-hooray!

I still need to post our road trip -- but I drove the whole way-- so it was therefore, not well documented...so- we are skipping to FLORIDA!!! whoot whoot-- Jason had a 2.5 week break so from Salt Lake he and I headed out ACROSS the country pulling a tiny little Uhaul trailer behind our Santa Fe-- we left the girls with Bookster, Papa and Josh-- for a flying home PARTAY! It was a bumpy ride and while everyone else was praying- or crying- Emmy had her arms up and was yelling "whohooo!! it's getting crazy!- It's like the Matterhorn! I LOVE this!" While Elles slept--

MUCH or our FL time was spent at the happiest place on earth-- DISNEY-- ahhhhhh home again!

Thanks to an AMAZING friend-- who we will FOREVER be GRATEFUL TOO!

Could these girls be cuter?!

seriously?!

Sadly- Elles HATED the princesses-- A LOT.

Emmy loved them as always--

She complimented them on their crowns--

and said she would meet them later at the castle-- so cute!

Elles- LOVING everyone BUT characters...

Disney brings the sweetest of sleep!

From St. George and Jason's family we went to Salt Lake and my family!-- Booky and Papa with all of their grandkids--for the moment at least!

The WHOLE BORCHARDT FREDERICK Clan-- yay!!! Such a cute picture!

The grandkiddos-- Ellie's reaction is very sadly typical on occasion-- why oh why-- she is SUCH a delight normally!

Such adorable cuties!

Happy family!

Enjoying spring with Booky!

LOVING Uncle Dave.

Josh getting the Priesthood from ALL of the men in his family-- what a neat thing!

Hot Tub cousins!!

ALL of the cousins minus Jagger-- what a fun time and ADORABLE GROUP!!!

Uncle Jason was the celebrity and life of the party-- and MY personal hero for entertaining all of the little nippers!

Fun times in Santo Jorge!

We got to stay at Grammy's on our way to Salt Lake-- Emmy LOVED her cupcake, family and doggie filled life! Desiree looks so tired-- but it's the only pic I got with your eyes open mom-- sorry!

Oh MY Word--- could you die at the cuteness?! She still only has 6 teeth-- she is the most adorable thing alive!

Saint Patrick's!

The Leprachaun came and POOPED in our friend's little potty (they were out of town and we used their house for the wettest yard sale in HISTORY)-- he was so rude that he didn't even empty it afterwards-- Emmy was appalled/delighted!

We had gotten a package from Booky--

It was AWESOME.

The ONLY festivities I could find in Bako was at an Albertsons... pathetic - I know. Ellie enjoyed them- see.

They were kind enough to let us buy cupcakes and then decorate them-- the added perk to this awesomeness was that the frosting was soooo dyed that the girls both pooped bright green for days-- I told Ems that it was because the infamous leprachaun had kissed both of them in their sleep== she was again appalled/delighted.
