Mom, dad and Arlee bought her a Dora Skooter and helmet and she loved them she wanted to wear them to bed. Then the next day Mace and I headed in to the hospital at 5;00 am to have our little Izzabella I had to have a C-section which was not my favorite way to have a baby. But Izzabella decided she didn't want to be upside down so she was born on the 14th at 7:20 am shw is 8lbs and 12 oz and is 21 and 1/2 inches long. and is so cute and so much fun black hair is such a cute good baby. The girl love her to pieces. Its fun having a new baby. Christmas was great and we had a wonderful time.

Family Fun

We have had the best times. Now that Mace's hunt is over the girls want to spend every minute with thier dad. So the other day we packed up and went to the ranch for the evening. The girls love going there as well as Mace and I . WE took his new dog and worked her and just played it was so peacful and beautiful. When Mace and the girls went for a ride on the 4 wheeler Lilly and I hung back at the truck and she found the mirror I took these funny pictures of her. She cracks me up.

The other pictures are of Lainee on Her preschool picture day and Paige on her pioneer day. They loved having their hair in the old fashion foam curlers. Lainee asks for it everyday now.

My Pregnancy is going great and the girls are getting so excited for the new baby they can't wait.

we also went camping one night at Koosherm we had a great weekend!

Birthday and Soccer fun!

Well Lainne has turned four now. I can't believe how old she has gotten time just flies by. Her and Arlee share a birthday so I love getting to make them cakes. I made Arlee the cute horse and Lainee the pink castle. This year I decided to make them out of cupcakes and it turned out so great. The cakes were so fun to make. Lainee loves Princess Aurora so thats what she got for her birthday was Aurora stuff. She got the swim suit and new glasses and had to wear them all day even though we didn't go swimming it was so cute.

Paige is playing soccer this year and is loving it. She is getting pretty good and is still a drama queen as usual.

LIlly is just glad to be here and loves her big sisters and wants to be just like them.

Wicked

Okay so yesterday was the best day.  It started off with Angie picking me up at 8:00 am and we were headed to SLC to go and see wicked the play we have been looking forward to seeing for about a year.  We bought season tickets just so we were guaranteed to get tickets to wicked.  So on the way up we listened to wicked and sang at the top of our lungs then we went shopping and went to my favorite restaurant PF changs and Had my favorite Shrimp Lo mein and pf changs chicken.  then we were both so excited we ended up at the capitol Theatre 2 hours early.  So we walked around and were so excited to see the show.  We were both like kids at christmas so when we got inside it was the best there is nothing better than live theatre.  The live orchestra and the costumes and set oh it is so great.  So we got to our seat and the show started and I don't think Angie or I moved an inch we were just glued to the front of the stage.  When intermission came it seemed like it had only been 10 min and it was really 1 hour and 1/2  crazy.  The second part started and it was just as amazing and went by so fast.  It was the best musical I have ever seen and has such a fun story line and twist to the wizard of Oz.  It was a love story and oh so great.  So after the show we were on cloud nine.  We headed to the Gateway to do a little shopping and then we went to eat at Angies favorite restaurant.  Which happened to be The Happy Sumo which is sushi which I ate a California roll which wasn't to bad.  And then for the rest of my food I ordered fried food but I loved it and would so go back. After a fun dinner we headed home which we sang the music from wicked  the whole way home and I  had the best time.  What a great day.  Thanks Angie for a great trip!

Easter Fun

The kids and their hut!

We had such a fun crazy weekend.  We went to the ranch with Mace's family and had the best time.  The kids played and played with all of their cousins.  They rebuilt the fort that their dads made when they were little.  We all had the best time even though the weather didn't want us to.  We have a great big easter egg hunt which is one of the highlight of easter for all.  It is so fun to watch the kids go out and run all over gathering eggs.  We had 14 egg hunters this year and they all got plenty of eggs.  The moms stuffed over 300 eggs and The dads went and hid them.  Ti was a great time.  During our picnic the weather decided we were having to much fun and hailed two inches on us so that ended our fun.  But a great time was had by all.   Sunday Morning the easter bunny found us and the girls had so much fun finding their baskets and eggs.  Then we went with my family to the Koosherm property and had a picnic with them and had the traditional Hansen family Tuna buns my favorite.  I love easter and love making the memories with my families we all had a great time.  Thanks everyone for all the fun!

Happy 30th Birthday Mace!

My Sweet husband turns thirty today.  I am so thankful for such a fun loving caring husband and wonderful dad to our three little girls.  They love him so much.  When he comes home they all three run up and just tackle him.  He is such a great husband and would do anything for me and the girls.  Happy Birthday Mace we love you so much.  

Paige is Seven!

zQZ

I know, I know, I bet you all thought I have dropped off the face of the earth. Well I haven't I have just been crazy busy and really obsessed with exercise.  Anyways My Paige turned seven on Saturday.  She is so cute and so smart.  She reads everything its so fun to hear her read.  This year for her birthday we talked her out of having a friend party and went north for the weekend.  The trip started out a little shaky.  Just as we pulled out from the richfield Wendy's Paige said mom and then started throwing up.  so I pulled over and we cleaned everything up.  But me being determined to go have fun we still headed north.  Paige slept the whole way.  Our first stop was the peaks ice skating arena in Provo.  Paige was feeling better so I had her eat a few pretzels and we went skating.  It was hard for them to do  but oh so fun.  Then after ice skating we headed up to salt lake.  We got take out from Paige's favorite chinese PF Changs and then went to the hotel and ate.  After that we went to the Gateway and shopped and had some fun.  Then next day was so fun.  That morning we woke up and went swimming and then got ready and went to surprize the girls with a trip to the zoo.  On our way their Paige kept asking where we were going. We just said for a ride.  When Mace pulled up to the zoo he stopped at the sign and said Paige read the sign and she read Utahs Hogle zoo and then said ZOO we are at the zoo.  Her and Lainee were so excited and we had the best time.  I decided that winter is the best time to go to the zoo.  Well after the zoo we went to REI Maces favorite store and then Mace and the girls dropped me off to meet Angie for our Play Ain't Misbehavin.  Then Mace and Trail took the kids to the Discovery Gateway.  and the to end the night with a bang we took the girls to the Jazz game.  It was so much fun the girls were so good and had the best time.  Thanks to Uncle Mike for the tickets.  Then we drove home.  Lilly stayed with my parents and she was sick the whole weekend I can't wait for sick season to be over.  Today Mom and Dad came over and we had dinner and Cake and Ice Cream for Paige and she opened her presents.  She got all little pet shop stuff and rainbow fairy stuff.  It was a great birthday.   I still can't believe that my little 7 lb 3 oz baby girl is now seven boy does time fly.  well happy birthday Paige I love you!
