Easter Day

On Easter Sunday we woke up at 6:00am to find the Easter Bunny baskets. After following the clues we finally found them and couldn't wait to see what was in them. After playing with all the fun stuff we got ready for church and enjoyed an amazing sacrament meeting. After church we had Natalie and crew over for an easter egg hunt before dinner and then at 5:30 we had Mary and Ferrel, Marcus and Melissa, Elaine and the Missionaries over for dinner.
Talk about a very special Easter. The missionaries were great and endured Won's questions with flying colors and even left him with some things to ponder. After dinner they shared a short clip that I had put on my blog before. I will find it and add it as soon as I remember how:) They left us with an amazing feeling in our hearts and the true reason for the holiday. It's definitely one for the books. I hope everyone else had an amazing time.
Love to all of you,
Amie

Easter

We had a great time dying easter eggs. We had Elaine, Natalie, and her boys over for some easter egg fun. We got some great eggs and a little mess-what could be better.
Mom and Brax dying his egg. He really liked the blue and painting it.
He wasn't to impressed with the orange color. Aleksia loved helping her brother and made sure he was always involved Even Dad got in on the action. He took his time and did an amazing job, untill he handed it to Elaine to hold. Lets just say she was helping all the kids(fingers in multi colored dye).
Kyler had fun for the first five minutes and then decided throwing them was a lot funner.
Natalie loved it and Kal just liked being around everyone.

Elaine got stuck helping all of the kids with their eggs at some point or was the camera lady. Thanks Elaine for all of your help.

These are the eggs that Aleksia did. Grandma, the top one is your special one. These are Brax's eggs. He did the chicks at school and the plainn ones at home.These are the family eggs. Aleksia added the bubbles during the picture for a little dramatic flair. We had a great time and I think the eggs are pretty amazing.




Scottsdale

Scott and Jamie had their baby shower on Sat. the 4th in Phoenix and then John had a golf tournament the following Monday. So we decided to make a little trip and stayed two nights in Scottsdale. We had fun seeing Scott and Jamie and can't wait to meet the little one, just 4weeks left I believe. Sunday was a day of relaxing by the pool and catching up with friends. Elaine was down visiting her family so she came over to spend the day by the pool also. We had a very relaxing time and made it home Mon. morning in time for the kids to be 8min. late for school (pretty much are usual time). Here are a few pictures, enjoy. We sure did.
