Chiquita Banana The Original Commercial

Grandma, it's going to be hard without you. But you've given my family so many memories! When asked if I could share some today the first one that always comes to mind is when you and grandpa went to Alaska. You left with dark brown hair and came back with white hair, not gray, WHITE. I asked you "what happened?" you replied " the Alaskan snow turned it white." I replied with " I'm NEVER going to Alaska!"

I found my lucky "7" ring in my hope chest, which is a tradition I will pass on with my kids when they graduate high school. I thought that ring had so many diamonds in it because you always won so much money in Wendover.

I remember you always called "Henry" for me when we came to visit. There was an overflowing bowl of catfood on the porch, and you always made me our favorite drink: ice water.

You always gave kisses, and my husband, then boyfriend Nick was taken aback. I laughed because I knew that was the first of many and they are wonderful kisses. He loves you and he wishes he could be here.

I remember when we all went out to the Mayan to watch Nick dive. We had great seats on the balcony. Nick dove off of the balcony in his speedo and right before it happened you reached up and pinched his butt!

I always begged my mom to bring me up when you and grandpa were having shrimp!

I always asked for a can of apricot pineapple juice.

I remember my dad "willy" driving my to Levan so you could take me home. I would cry so much when he left,, but you and grandpa always made me feel better. I loved playing Snake Eyes with you on that little table in the kitchen!

Easter egg hunts, which I never found the $1 egg. The little playhouse out back, gardening, Kacey and I bugging the bees outback and he ended up with the a bee in his ear.

Your roses always floating in a bowl. Your "Hello?" on the phone. They comfort me, they give me the strength to know that people can live a happy, wonderfully fullfilling life. Thank you for everything you've done, and everything that I've learned from you. I love you grandma and we will miss you so much!

We went to the zoo Thursday and it was beautiful! The weather was perfect, the kids were so good. But I came home to some really bad news, my Grandma Childs had died in her sleep. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it all. It's just so hard! She was sick and in pain and I'm glad it doesn't hurt anymore. I love you grandma.

This is so fun! My girls love to get on the computer so I thought I would share my find with all of you out there in Bloggerville.

Easter

Tallinn was so in awe of all the excitement! Easter morning was so chaotic, fun!

We dyed 5 dozen eggs. I thought it would take forever but the girls were mostly doing it themselves this year!

My silly girls didn't care how cold it was they are having fun burying their dinosaurs and play "Paleontologist."


The Easter Bunny brought us sand and sand toys for our sandbox! SO FUN, I can't wait for the first sand fight...

Tallinn's 1st Birthday

He dove right into his smush cake! He cut out the middle man and just used his mouth. His hands eventually made it into the cake. He also had help from Sienna and Marseille!

Talli-ho was given lots of wonderful toys! No more barbies for him, he got trucks and balls of his own to play with. Of course the girls got spoiled too. We are so lucky to be surrounded by wonderful friends and family!

Update

I'm not allowed to cut hair anymore. Whoops!

He was a little nervous at first, but when he saw Marseille having fun he started to enjoy it!

We are still trying to move back to Las Vegas, however, the housing market is so bad right now we're having a hard time selling :(

But, the good news is that we might be able to plant a garden this summer. YEAH!
