I can' believe it is already the middle of March. I haven't been keeping up on my blogging very good lately. So here's some pictures from the last few weeks.
Sienna was really wanting held all day. You moms know how that goes. I was trying to get some laundry done. After taking the clothes out of the drier I set Sienna on top of them so I could put another load in. The warmth of the clothes put her right to sleep. 
We were up in Salt Lake last weekend for Grandma Brown's birthday party. A couple of days later it was Fred's birthday as well. We got him some pirate gear to go with his new boat " The Black Pearl". The boys thought it was so much fun. We can't wait to join the pirate crew and take a ride on the notorious pirate ship.
Grandma Brown had a stroke on her 86th birthday and passed away a few days later. We are so happy for her. I know she was ready to go and is probably really enjoying being with Grandpa again. Her funeral was on Saturday. Steve and I felt very blessed to be able to participate. Steve gave the family prayer and then the life history. I just did a piano solo. I was so proud of Steve. He's such a great example to his family. I know that someday his steadfast example will really pay off.
I do have to share one funny thing from the weekend. Parker asked Steve's mom where grandma was. Jeannine told him that she was with Jesus. Parker left for a few minutes then came back and told her, "Grandma, I can't find Jesus anywhere here." I guess he thought that if Grandma was with Jesus and he could see her then he ought to be able to see Jesus too. I love what kids say. It's one of my favorite parts of being a parent.

I am so glad I am not the only mom that puts their kids in the laundry basket. When Nash was first born that was the only way I could go to the laundry room in our complex. I love the story about Parker and Jesus...too cute!
