EASTER 2010

***WARNING*** Very long post! Tons of pictures!! Our Easter stretched over about 3 days.

First we started by dyeing Easter Eggs on Thursday. The girls had a blast. Connor was very serious about it and Wyatt just dyed them as fast as he could. Luke even dyed some and decorated them for Nick, Damian, & Andrew. We had alot of fun watching them color eggs. This is one of my favorite things to do. Wes missed it this year because he was in Colorado working.

Sautrday we were going to go to the City Egg hunt. We woke up to a blizzard outside and decided not to go to the city one. We had dinner at Todd & Kristin's. Then we decided to have a egg hunt at the shop where we would be out of the wind and snow. We had a fun afternoon up there. The egg hunt was fun! The girls filled their baskets at least 2 times. Connor and Wyatt both took their time. Wyatt just wanted to eat the candy, even if they had wrappers on them. Then papa glen had another surprise. He had gotten baby chicks and put a few in some big eggs. The kids went to open the eggs. It scared Hannah and she dropped hers. Connor was a little cautious but loved them once they were out. Kyler LOVED them. They went through Easter baskets and then had bike races. Connor did not like losing to Madi. He would throw a HUGE fit. Hannah just took her time in the race and had a great time. Madi actually lost a few races to Connor. It was really funny to watch them.

Sunday we did our kids Easter baskets and then had breakfast up at grandma and papas before Nick, Andrew & Damian had to leave. We then came home to find our biggest and best surprise. Wes came home! He has been gone for 2 weeks and we all have missed him so much!!! We had a great Easter with all our family. My mom was here and we loved having her here.
Hope everyone had a very HAPPY EASTER!!

Track Meet at BYU

We went to watch Nick, Andrew & Damian at the meet at BYU. We had alot of fun watching and hanging out with our boys!

Connor's Spring Festival

Connor goes to a little play & learn group 2 days a week. He loves going to school and always has the teachers laughing. Wyatt goes with him and I think the teachers often wonder what these 2 boys can pull off. They have alot of fun! Last week they had a Spring Festival in Roosevelt and the kids had a blast. They had a little Easter Egg hunt, played a Cookie walk, made butterflies out of coffee filters, colored pictures frames for their pictures that were taken, got their faces painted, and played a few other games. It was really cute and the kids loved it.

Swimming & Zoo

While we were in Roy for Madi's Dance. We took advatage and made a weekend out of it. We did lots of shopping, went to the zoo and went swimming. By the time we headed home on Sunday, the kids were exhausted.

Madi Dance Competition

Madi had Dance Competition in Roy on March 27th. Her team did a great job! Madi's class took 2nd in both of their dances. I think Madi had a great time and was thrilled at all who came to support her. We have the best family ever. My parents, Brenda ( Wes' mom), Kristin, Todd & boys, Nick, Luke, Andrew & Damian were all there to cheer her on. She loved every minute and we all enjoyed watching her as well. Good job Roo! We love you!

Birthday Party

I had the most wonderful birthday! It was filled with lots of family & friends. It even lasted a few days! Wow... I feel like a little kid with all the fun things we have been doing. The first thing... we went to dinner last Saturday after Madi's dance competition for my birthday. Mom & dad, Nick, Luke, Andrew, Damian, Todd Kristin, Wyatt, Kyler, and grandma Brenda all were there. We had a yummy dinner at Olive Garden. It was alot of fun hanging out with everyone for a little while. And I was so happy they all came down to watch Madi dance. That is for another post. Monday (my birthday) we had lunch with cousins: Dana, Brylee, Annette, Kylie & Kristin and the kids. It was fun to get togther with them and visit. Thanks Dana for the cake and setting up the lunch. Monday night we had dinner at Brenda & Glens. Brenda made yummy homemade pizza for dinner. It was a super fun night.
On Wednesday, Christie and Kristin planned a birthday lunch for Cindy and I. Cindy's birthday is this Friday. It was so fun hanging out with friends. Christie had the cutest cake ever, made for us! We both loved it. Kristin and Christie made a delicious lunch for everyone. Cindy and I got twinner gifts and it was a ball opening them with her. And now 4 of us are going shopping in the city in a few weeks for the weekend. I can't wait!
