BUNNY DAY

Belated Easter pics. Simple day. Struggles with one. But I got my photos.

HAPPY HAUNTING

It's no surprise that I love Halloween; I thoroughly enjoy going bigger and better with my themes every year. We've been talking about and planning for this year's Halloween theme for a couple of years now. Originally, we were supposed to do this back in 2020, but quarantine kept us home. Then, in 2021, we made a last minute switch to Disney Villains due to our family trip to Walt Disney World a couple of weeks after Halloween. So this year we finally delved into the theme that we had been wanting to do since 2019; Batman Villians. I am SO, SO happy with how everyone's costumes and makeup turned out! And I already might be scheming for next year...

Student Council friends after their Red Ribbon Rap performance. School fall carnival. Downtown Mesa for Halloween costume photo. Splitting/swapping Halloween candy from the ward trunk-or-treat.

MOTHER'S DAY

Mother's Day was pretty simple. I have zero expectations on that day, so sometimes it works in my favor. This year included. And yes, my oldest has now surpassed me in height. Let us all take a moment of silence to mourn this moment...

EEEASTER

 Aside from my OCD manic search for the PERFECT Easter outfits, our Easter was extremely low-key. So low-key that we skipped dyeing eggs and kept Easter baskets and Easter dinner sweet and simple.
