too quiet...

You know there is trouble when the kids are "too" quiet. Well, this is what I found when I noticed there was NO noise coming from Benton.

strawberries & champaign...or sparkling cider rather

Conference weekend was kicked-off HIGH CLASS! My wonderful brothers and sisters-in-law rolled out the red carpet. We were treated to chocolate covered strawberries and sparkling apple and grape juice while relaxing in the hot tub.

To top it off they lit TEEKI torches to set the ambience. It was wonderful. A bit of heaven. My dream come true. The best way to end a wonderful weekend.

The rejuvenated include: Mom, Dad Hatch,Trent, Anne, Travis, Tiffany, Garrett, BJ, Jeni, Cade, Randal, Christy.

Scandal

This weekend I found some RED shoes. I have been looking for RED shoes for awhile now and I found some for only $7.00! So I bought them. I didn't realize the scandal they would cause. Let's just say, after a lot of "Hatch" teasing, I've come to the conclusion that these shoes can't come out until "after dark."

New Addition

My sister, Christine, just had a baby boy this morning. A healthy 6lb. baby boy. We are so excited to have a cousin for Benton to play with. She was induced a week early. Last night around midnight the labor began. Christine decided it was time to go to the hospital at 5:00am. Upon arrival she learned she was already at an "8" and little baby Weston was born two hours later. Everything went smoothly and there was no tearing so recovery will be a breeze.

Congratulations Christine!

We Are a Family

I found this old picture of Christine (sis) with baby Syd, me with baby Alex, and Erica (cousin) with baby Mae. We were all at Sara's (cousin) wedding. I love that we all have babies together. We used to play school, college, house and pregnant ("P") together and now we have gotten to actually live it! I love my family. Sara and Beth...we need a picture with you and your cute babies.

art project

I couldn't stop laughing. The eye holes are the BEST part. I love your mask Tori. I love how you want to wear it EVERYWHERE we go. I love your creativity. Kindergarten is the BEST!

pretty in pink

Yesterday we had our weekly ballet class. By pure chance everyone was wearing pink. I had to snap a picture. It was too cute. We were sadly missing Alex, Maddie, Vanessa and Stephanie in this photo. Till next week.
