Easter

I love Easter. I love that it was a beautiful sunny day. We went to church and came home to have a wonderful afternoon together. I made a lovely Easter dinner and we talked about our Savior and the resurrection. We have a little Easter activity called "Resurrection Eggs" that we discuss with the girls. They love opening the eggs and then we explain the different events leading up to the resurrection. I am so grateful for my Savior and all that he has done for me. I am incredibly thankful for all that I have :)

 As a baby shower gift, one of my best friends Kari, got the girls these cute matching dresses! They looked so cute all dressed up for Easter! I want to take some more pictures of them when they are all not starving  and tired from being at church :)

 The girls helped set the table with these cute carrots filled with candy, name tags, and Easter plates.

I put together these little goodie jars to give out to all my young women. They loved them!

Day at the Coast

We had a wonderful spring break last week. It was full of relaxing, family bike rides, plenty of time outside on scooters, playing with friends, and a wonderful day trip to the beach! We spent the day in Florence with our super good friends the Petersons! We had a blast! Beside the fact that it was incredibly windy on the actual beach and Eleanor screamed her tiny guts out ..... so we sat in the car for a while, it was a great day!

 All the kids minus Jillian (their oldest) and Eleanor. Look at all those cute girls...... and Hayden. They are such good little friends.
 Trying to get a picture of everyone smiling......
 Trying again.......
 Annie took this picture of us and it turned out really good! Go Annie! We ate at Mo's (behind us) and enjoyed yummy seafood. Well, I didn't because I have this thing about seafood and that I don't like it, but everyone else did :)
I LOVE this picture. Rex and all his girls. He is very talented and can hold a baby and hold Annie's hand too. Melt my heart.
