Easter

I hope everyone had a great Easter! I finally uploaded my pics to my computer. Our Easter started on Friday when Grandma Sheila colored Easter Eggs with the kids while mom was at work. Then Saturday we went to the Devey Party up at the bowery in Alpine. We had a great time even though it was freezing. We rode the four wheelers around, played horse shoes with bunny horseshoes, and ate hot dogs. We then had an egg hunt in the brush around the bowery. We found eggs, candy, and deer poo! Marilyn thought it would be funny to put a BYU hat on Liv. Trent didn't think that was funny at all! The next day we went to Grandma Sheila's for our first dinner. Liv and mom played baseball, while dad, Ethan, and Casey fixed the flat tire caused by a screw we ran over. Isn't that just great? Spend all this money for cool tires and drive them one day and get a screw in it! Anyway, after that we went to the Alpine house and had our second Easter dinner with the Kearney clan. It was nice to have it at the Alpine house because no one lives there! We also had another Easter egg hunt where I "regifted" some of the eggs from the previous days hunt! The kids had a great time playing with all of their cousins. Trent got to show off his new jeep to everyone, and we all got to see Brandon and Lisa's new baby boy and Teri's "baby belly"! The following day, Liv took our plastic eggs and hid them outside for Abby to find. She wanted to have Easter for a week!

New Things



Well I wanted change and got it! Trent decided he was tired of driving a car around, so he traded in our car and got a new Jeep. We spent about a month shopping for one and changing our minds a million times. We started out wanting just an old Jeep Wrangler. Then we decided we wanted a newer Jeep Wrangler. Then we decided we would just get a brand new Jeep Wrangler. We test drove a few new ones. Then we decided if we went camping, we would not be able to fit anything but a cooler in the back. So we decided to get the four door version which is the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. It was a much better choice. We then took it to Ultimate 4X4 and got it "pimped" out! I am excited to take the top off and go digging in the mountains! Easter Sunday we drove it to my mom's and let Casey take it for a drive. Trent thought he was just being nice by saying how much he loved it. Come Tuesday night, Shannon and Casey bought a yellow version of the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited! It was funny! Fun times are to come!!

Change


Do you ever feel like your life just needs a change? I have been feeling like that for some time now. I am not sure what change I need to be making, but I just feel like I need a change of some sort. Maybe we need to move, maybe I need a new car, maybe a new job, maybe a new haircut, maybe a new life. Who knows! I just need something new. I do know, though, I need to be more family centered. I need to focus a lot on my family and not just my immediate family. I think I need a new outlook on life and a new attitude. I need to not care so much about certain things and just focus my energy elsewhere. I have been in a funk lately and have had a hard time pulling myself out. I need newness (if that even is a word) I need change! I need to go to Yoga more. I need to change my routine or stick to my routine better, one or the other (not sure which). I need a change of scenery. I NEED CHANGE!
