What's On My Happy List?

A peek into our week...

This is a darling book about temples that I gave

Kate before we went to the Jordan River Temple

Open House...

 You have to catch a shuttle at a near-by 
church and be bused to the Temple. 

It baffles me 

{It shouldn't, but it does} 

that thousands and thousands of people

 are going through it each day.

Brie tagged along even though she 's 

already been through... 

Afterwards, we stopped off at this dress shop
at South Towne Mall to see if they had any
baptism dresses....

They have a HUGE SELECTION! 

🙌

Kate tried on 12!
Narrowed it down to 5.

We went back the next day to make a
final decision...

Emmsie, Hannah and I were partial to this one...

but she was not to be swayed...

chose the one she liked best. 

It's just as cute!

{Peeps can you even wonder what it's going to be like looking for 

wedding dresses when that time comes.}

😨 

The older girls dragged out their baptism dresses to give me
grief about which one I liked the best and least!
😂

*****

The poppi took us out for sushi to 

a new dive.

Poor Kyleigh couldn't be with us...

Hannah texted her...

"we found you a Texas Fat Boy...that's been to Vegas."

Ky is such a sushi freak she knew 

we were talking about different sushi rolls.

My favorite were these crab, jalapeno poppers??...
don't know what they are called but
goodness me YUM!

Everyone was dy'in over the hubs bento box
and trying to steal his food!

*****

 Friday night drop off to my visiting teachers!
 printable from the VT queen

She has the cutest ideas.

Loved Conference!

*****

Kate and I dyed eggs!

*****

We had girl's night!
Cousin Allie joined us for eats and a movie...

we watched one of our favorite chick flicks

and had a late night Easter Egg Crack Off Competition....

Hannie's egg won.
Last one rolling without a crack!

*****

The Easter bunny paid us a visit and left a trail to the backyard 

of cotton balls

bunny tails.

I think this is the first time I've boughten a pre-packaged Easter Egg basket.
{less hassle if you ask me}
Kate was more than okay with it! ;)

Easter Brunch and Egg Hunt with the cousins!

*****

Kate was trying to April Fool's us.
She tried saran wrapping sister's phones.
Put blue food coloring on toothbrushes.
Switched the inside bags of the cereal boxes!
She's a trickster!
Takes after her sister Emma.
{She pulled off the ultimate prank
on Kyleigh 4 years ago}
...see Here

Now that Kate is 8 she can go to the
Achievement Day activities...
They made cake pops the other day!

I was proud as punch as she
has memorized and passed off the
13th Article of Faith already.
She had the first part memorized when she was 2!

*****

I enjoyed a lunch out with my bestie. 

Zuppas is our go to!

My favorite soup is half of the Tamoto Basil mixed with 

half of the Wisconsin Cauliflower. 

😋

Kyleigh continues to keep us entertained

{We were laughing our heads off last night hearing about her date.}

especially with her plans for her RomeAbroad trip this summer.

She had to attend a yoga class this week at the Krishna Hindu temple

for her BYU Indian dance class.

This weekend she gets to go on a archeology fieldtrip

and then attend a Native Indian Pow Wow. 

Brie wants me to change the blog title to 

"Keeping up with the Coopers"

it would be more like 

"Keeping up with Kyleigh".

The rest of us live a pretty quiet life

compared to her.
