We are now officially a family of 5!!

On May 12, 2011 the Smuin family went in front of a judge and officially made Kinley a Smuin. We were surrounded by our wonderful family. I have to say that my family has to be the luckiest and most loved little family on Earth. I cannot say how much love and gratitude I felt that day as I watched almost 20 people file into the courtroom to support us. After a few pictures we headed to lunch to celebrate. As we were sitting at lunch I looked around at our family laughing and celebrating we us and told Chad that we are truly blessed to have so many amazing people to call family. The day was truly an emotional and joyous occasion.  The Smuin family now includes...Chad, Breeze, Mathew Chris, Dylan Edward, and Kinley Reese. All five of us would like to express our thanks and love to all of our family who shared in our joy at the courthouse or from a far. Love you!

Matt's 5th Grade...

Against my will Matt is growing up so fast. Fifth grade came and went like a flash, but I did manage to get a few snapshots of the year. Matt was Kit Carson in the Living History Museum they also had a manners and etiquette luncheon. Look at how grown up he is sometimes it makes me just want to cry that my big guy is really getting big.

Easter 2011

We had a good Easter. We also had a great time coloring eggs. Matt got the tape out to make some masterpieces, Dylan liked to see how many colors he could get on one egg, and Kinley could not get the eggs in and out of the dye fast enough.

 The weather was a little cold so we did not head to Heber, but the Leatherows did come over for a BBQ Easter night. Easter morning was exciting the kids came down to a house full of hidden eggs and all the goodies the Easter Bunny left for them. Here are few pictures of the festivities!!!
