HIke to volcano and Snow Canyon

Easter Weekend has become one of my new favorite Holiday's I've decided. After the Easter Egg Hunt (See posts below), we went on a hike to the volcano up in Diamond Valley. The last time that I had hiked the volcano was about 11 years ago when I was about 7 months pregnant with Daniel, our first child. So I guess it was about time I was hiking it again, being that I am 7 months pregnant with our last child. It was quite a hike but we all made it. In one picture with Daniel, Derrik, Demmy and Marlee their school is in the background! Grandpa and the boys went down the front, steep side of the volcano, while the girls and Danny(who carried Maycie the entire time) went down the safer way. I think Grandpa timed us and it only took us about 28 minutes longer to come the other way. Then on Sunday afternoon we went to the Snow Canyon Sanddunes. This use to be a Hawks cousin tradition. We rolled Easter Eggs, and got buried in the sand and then just walked and played in the sand. I almost forgot, it wouldn't be Easter Weekend without going to the Annual Arts Festival. That was lots of fun too, but I forgot to take my camera.

EASTER!!!

Easter was too much fun! Kallee, Chad, Jay and David all came down to visit. We woke up early and headed to the Winchester Hills Easter Egg hunt at the park. Of course the EASTER BUNNY was there! Maycie was scared of course, (you can see her crying) but the other kids couldn't keep from laughing because they knew who the Easter Bunny really was! (Notice Grandma April isn't in any of the Easter pictures). The kids also had a great Easter morning looking for more eggs at Grandma and Grandpa's house. It was great spending time with family and especially having Kallee and her family here!

I couldn't wait!

Okay I guess I am having too much fun. I had to post one more time today. Danny and I just took a trip to Hawaii and had a great time. We went with Danny's dad and step mom and Danny's brother Jason and his wife Liz. The highlight of the trip had to be when we went to a night show called the Society of Seven. Danny was called up out of the audience and had to dress up as Elvis and sing and dance. It was the funniest. We do have it on video!!!!! The entire trip was great though. We went to Pearl Harbor, the Swap meet, Polynisian Culture Center, Hanuama Bay, and Waikiki Beach. And we were only there for 3 days!

Where do I begin AGAIN?

Okay! Now I am really going to start posting. I did one back in Nov. and then stopped. Of course I never told anyone about it so maybe this time I will. We have been very busy since Nov. So I guess I will just start recapping a few things. December was amazing. We spent time with our families far away and also close by. The kids loved doing the manager scene and decorating the tree. It was a great month!

Then in January the girls had a birthday party with their new friends down here. It was a princess party so everyone dressed up like a princess. Demmy was Belle and Marlee was Cinderella. Grandma April came as a clown and made balloons and lots of fun crafts. The best part had to be Danny dressed up as the Beast. All of the little girls loved him!

January and February have just flown by! We had a wonderful Valentines and the kids are doing great in school. Derrik had his pinewood derby and his car had the fastest track time! (Thanks to Danny's help with all the weight they kept adding)! Then Danny and the kids went on a hike with Grandma and Grandpa Hawks, Terry and Diana and Megan and Torsten. They had too much fun! I of course was hard at work! These are just a few of the fun pictures that show all that has been going on!
