“A happy family is but an earlier heaven.”

-George Bernard Shaw -







So this weekend was conference and Matt's Family has a tradition of going to the cabin in Mt. Pleasant and watching conference there! It is so fun and we haven't been to the cabin since we found out we were pregnant with DeLa, so we were really excited to go! Plus it was DeLa's first vacation! She did so good, especially on the trip down their and sleeping in a new place! She is so wonderful!
Here is the DeLa Bug in her cabin garb! Grandma Lee got her these cute jeans and a cabin onsie with trees and moose and cabin stuff all over it!  She looked adorable!  And it was flannel and kept her nice and warm since it SNOWED while we were up there!

Here is Matt with TayTay (Matt's sisters youngest son) He is so cute and gives such great hugs! Such a snuggley kid!

HELLO!!

Just chillin on the couch with Dad! Listening to conference!

Here is Grandma and Grandpa Lee cooing at DeLa as she coos back! They love her so much!

 
Here is Matt with Abby . . . Bella's Arch-Nemasis! Bella is not the fondest of Abby! But Abby LOVES Bella and was harrassing Bella to play with her all weekend! Bella at one point even got in the cupboard to hide from Abby! Hahahah . . . Her safe haven was atop the back of the couch on anyones shoulders she could find! She made it through the weekend though . . .and in one piece! Below we forced them in a picture together! You can see Bella trying to find a way out!


Caught Grampa sleeping as he held DeLa! SOOO TIRED!

Here is Matt Coloring Eggs! We had so much fun! I have to admit I . . . think mine were colored the best!

THE EGGS!
Matt's eggs are the back 2 and mine are the front 3! Rainbow and Tie Die! Im sooo good! The pink/purple one I dedicated to DeLa

This is Amy's egg (Matt's older sister) It was her dedication to Matt! So Appropriate!

ALL THE EGGS!

I tried to take cabin-esque photos with ALL of Grandma Lee's cabin trinkets!

EASTER MORNING!
 The Easter Bunny visited us at the cabin and brought DeLa lots of presents!

Silly Face! I love when I catch these on camera!


She was loving this bunny that Granma gave her!
Here are her presents from the Easter bunny! She got some new Jam Jams in Easter Colors and a spring outfit and like 6 rattles! She was loving life!

The Little Lee Fam Easter Morning!
Don't judge my tired face!  DeLa woke up every hour this night! I think she was trying to catch the Easter Bunny in action! Hahaha! MAN was I tired!

Easter Coma!  She was so excited (or maybe so tired from no sleep the night before!) She Zonked out!

Here is daddy putting on DeLa's snow outfit! She looks like our little bunny! It reminds me of Christmas Story! "I can't put my arms down!" Hahaha

First time in the snow . . .Doesn't look so happy! I think the Bumbo was a little tight with the snow suite on!  Still so cute!

A Little happier! hahaha. . . Oh how I torture her for a picture!

The Family in the snow! This is just after we took her 4-Wheeling for the first time!  She drove like a pro!! HAHAHA . . . no really though - we took turns holding her and getting pulled in a sled by the 4-Wheeler - SHE LOVED IT! All the bumps and noise! She was in heaven! I will have to load the video we took and blog it later! It was fun!

My 2 little marshmallows!

Mommy and Baby girl!

This is the field where we go 4-Wheeling/Snowmobiling

After the cabin we drove home and spent some time with the Hickmans (My Family) for Easter too! DeLa had had a very long day and was a little tired and fussy at my parents house, so my mom suggested feeding here bananas! I immediately said No she's too young and my mother quickly corrected me saying its time to start her on actual food!  I can't believe she is already old enough to start FOOD!  Well I was a little skeptical but my mom mushed up some nanas and added a little rice cereal and sure enough DeLa LOVED IT!  And it only took about 3 tries for her to learn how the whole spoon thing works! What a SMART girl! My little baby is growing up! Her first try at food was Easter Sunday! Yay!

What a wonderful ful weekend! On top of all the fun we he had, he also had the opportunity to listen to general conference and hear the prophet and the 12 apostles speek! I always love conference! Especially when it is on EASTER!  This year was a little harder to listen to with the baby and being tired! (Thank goodness they have a whole Ensign dedicated to it so I can read what I missed!) But through it all I love listening to conference. One thing that continued to stay in my mind was (I can't remeber who said it but) when it was talked about how EVERY relationship we create here on earth we are creating it for eternity! It made me think of all my friends and especially my family! I am so glad to know that FAMILIES ARE FOREVER! I am grateful for all my wonderful friends! And I am grateful for my Savior! Those are the relationships I can't wait to have for time and eternity! I am so grateful for my Savior for breaking the bands of death that we can have eternal relationships and that one day we can return and live with our Father in Heaven! I love my family and I love you ALL!
HAPPY EASTER!
