What we're up to

Yes, we are all alive and well at the Barrow household. It's been a crazy month. In the middle of March, the kids and I went to Idaho to help Grandma Twitchell. She tore up her knee by sitting down wrong in a chair on Daniel's birthday, and had to have knee surgery. Lindsay was "Grandma's big helper". She would get Grandma anything she needed and was actually a big help. She is such a good girl and is a really good helper.

March 27-29, we went to Idaho for Hannah's birthday party and McKayla's baby blessing. Hannah is growing up to be such a big girl. Her and Lindsay have always been best friends. They are really cute together. McKayla's baby blessing was good. She is a really cute baby and Lindsay loved seeing all of her cousins. There is getting to be a lot of them! Kamryn, Kelli, Karter, Jerome, Remington, McKayla, and then Lindsay and Daniel. There is always chaos when they are all together, but it is fun. They all love playing together.

Lindsay and Hannah- Best Friends Forever!

Another 'fun' thing we have been up to is moving! We found out on March 9 that we had to be out of our condo on April 7. So, we found another condo, about 3/10ths of a mile away, that is (almost) exactly the same (and rent is only $9 more...why they have it as a random number, we still haven't figured out). The only difference between this and the old one is the floorplan is mirrored. There are also some minor differences. This one has a few more kitchen cupboards (yay), carpet in the living room except for tile (yay), but no ice maker (boo), and the water pump sounds like a trumpet when you turn the water on (boo). But, we like it and are trying to get everything unpacked. Josh's parents came and helped us move, and we were so grateful. We couldn't have done it without them. My parents were planning on coming, but my mom was having complications from her surgery and couldn't. We missed them. We also had about 6 guys from our old ward help us unload the truck, and it went way fast.

Yesterday we went to 'Baby Animal Days' at the America West Heritage Center. It was really fun, although a little expensive. Lindsay got to hold a baby duck, baby rabbit, baby turkey, and pet a whole bunch of baby farm animals. She also got to ride a horse and have her picture taken with the Easter Bunny. Both her and Daniel had fun. They were both asleep before we got to the highway!Lindsay and the baby duck. This was her favorite one until it scratched her..
.then she just let go! Luckily, I caught it.

Daniel loved the horsies!

The kids and the Easter Bunny. Lindsay didn't want to sit on his lap,
so I finally convinced her to stand by him if Daniel sat on his lap.

Lindsay riding the horse...we'll have to take her to Jeremy and
Jess's so she can really ride a horse...this one was kind of lame.

Here are the kids in their new Easter outfits. They are so cute!
