Happy Easter 2011


We had a wonderful Easter Sunday...as you can see by Deano's face! His favorite part was probably the Easter egg hunt at Nana and Bobpa's house!


Brielle was adorable today in her little dress that my mom bought in Paris for her last fall (before she fell and broke her pelvis)...thanks Nana!

Love these pictures of my 3 favorite people!Ready to walk to church! I love watching them walk around with their little scripture bags! My favorite part of the day was the family quiet time we had tonight before bed. We talked about Jesus crucifixion and Resurrection, and they told us what they learned about it in Primary today. It is so exciting to see their little minds working. I am so grateful for the Savior and His help to raise these precious little kiddo's! Easter morning was full of candy, candy and more candy! This picture was at about 8am!I had to throw this last picture in of Bri & Dean decorating eggs because I don't want to forget this story: after decorating eggs Brielle started to eat one, so of course Dean followed her. After spending at least 5 minutes peeling the egg and making a giant mess, he slumped his shoulders and said, "mom, they aren't chocolate?" My mom has had giant chocolate eggs all month at her house and he LOVES them...apparently now he thinks all eggs should be chocolate!

Spring Break 2011

Brielle had spring break this week and we had a nice little "staycation." I tried to mix in a couple of fun activities (so it did not seem like we spent all week working in the office)Nana made the kids a picnic lunch a couple of times...they LOVED it! The BYU Dino museum is always lots of fun...especially because it is made up of two rooms, takes 30 minutes to visit and it is free! Another free favorite is the BYU Bean Museum!

Today the kids helped me make lots of strawberry freezer jam...because Chris & Brielle eat it SO fast (sometimes they go through a jar in a day or two and I can't steal anymore from my parents house or they will get suspicious :).


Brielle was doing all kinds of different poses for the camera...gotta love her!
