Coloring Easter Eggs

 Coloring Easter Eggs
 This year we colored Easter Eggs at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Lauren loved to color the Easter eggs. She took so much time with each one making it look just right. Her favorite thing to do with them was to put smile faces on them with rhinestones. Lonna helped color the eggs but quickly lost interest and just wanted to play with the toys. Grandpa had fun helping Lauren and Lonna color eggs while grandma sat back and held baby Josh.

On February 28, 2012 I went into Riverton Hospital after having contractions all night. We arrived at the hospital at 0830 and things progressed very quickly. Our beautiful baby boy was born at 1216pm and weighed 7 lbs 5 oz and was 19 inches.

MY FAMILY
 

So I thought I would start off by telling you a little bit about my family. I met my husband Tim, at BYU Idaho. The summer after I graduated from high school I started at BYUI,  I met Tim that first weekend we were there and we were engaged by the end of that summer. We were married a year later on September 1, 2005. That next spring I found out that I was pregnant with our first child. We were so happy to welcome a beautiful baby girl, Lauren Nichole Slack, on February 1, 2007, into our family. After a lot of prerequisite courses and working as a CNA for several year I finally got accepted into nursing school at Salt Lake Community College and started in August of 2008. Nursing school was the hardest time in my life, but it was also so much fun. I learned so much and was challenged everyday. It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do but also the most rewarding and has made the biggest difference in our lives. Half way through I was again blessed with another beautiful baby girl, Lonna Lorraine Slack, on September 16, 2009. I graduated from nursing school in August 2010 and went to work at Hillside Rehabilitation. I am still working at Hillside, I love the people there and I love being around and working with our elders. Last summer Tim went through the POST program at Salt Lake Community college and is now certified as a Law enforcement officer, we are just waiting for him to get hired by a city. While he was in POST we found out that we were expecting our third child, Joshua William Slack was born February 28, 2012. That is story on my family thus far.
