Gardening FUN!





This was actually a few weeks ago, but I just found the pictures so I thought I would post them! This is Leila helping me garden! She was so cute. She would use the small shovel to try and dig and would end up with all the dirt on her head! She HATED the hat I made her wear! She would leave it on until I turned the other way or started doing something else and then off it would go!! She was so cute and it was fun to have her out there with me!

Martin's Cove!


This past week, the extended Eddington family had a family reunion at Martin's Cove in Wyoming. So we packed up our camping gear and took the 6 hour drive up. We had a great experience (minus the never ending wind). We did a 6 mile hike and Leila did so good the whole time!
This is us in our pioneer clothes--Leila didn't have a bonnet so we put a bandanna on instead!

Here is Leila and her 2 cousins Sam and Lily--they got to ride in the handcarts most of the time! They loved the ride!
We had a great time! Thanks to everyone who helped plan it!

Logan or Roosevelt?!!

Well, for those of you who are wondering if we have decided to move to Logan or to stay in Roosevelt- this post is for you....
After praying, fasting, and comparing, we have finally decided to stay here in Roosevelt for another year! Logan was great and fun to visit--we fell in love with the area and felt really good about moving there, but we also had similar feelings about Roosevelt. After praying about it we felt the Lord was fine with either decision. We were debating for weeks on what to do and applied for jobs and apartments in both places, but I think the deciding factor came in the mail when Brent received a scholarship here at the Uintah Basin campus for $2500 a semester!! We are so excited about this wonderful blessing, so we are staying in Roosevelt until law school and then who knows where we will go....

Too Many Cupcakes!


Thursday (the 17th) was Leila's Uncle Tony's birthday, so we were invited over for dinner and cake. Well, right as we got there Leila spotted the yummy chocolate cupcakes on the counter that were supposed to be for dessert. She hardly ate anything because she wanted those cupcakes so bad. So I thought, okay, if she shares one with Brent that won't be so bad. After that first one she wanted more. I gave in once more and let her have a few more bites of another one. Then they pulled out the Strawberry short cake which was fabulous (thanks to Angie) and Leila wanted some of that, so I gave her a few strawberries. However, there were still two cupcakes sitting there tempting her so bad. She kept reaching for them and screaming for them, but I told her she had enough- Well, it's a good thing she has a Aunt and a Grandma who love her and gave her ANOTHER cupcake, and as soon as she got it she shoved it in her mouth so I couldn't take it away! Here are just a few pictures to show how satisfied she was after her long struggle to get it.



Let's just say Leila LOVES chocolate and her nose can find it every where it is hidden! Oh well, I guess she gets that from me! Ü
