Easter 2010






Since General Conference was on Easter Sunday, we decided to wear the new Easter dresses the week before Easter. It was a good idea since the next Sunday was cold and windy! After church we went to my parents house and took pictures with my sister's kids too. They looked so cute but it was nearly impossible to get all 4 of them to look at the camera at the same time!
On Friday night the kids went to color Easter eggs at my parents house. They all had a blast...and my mom's kitchen was the proof! On Saturday morning the Easter bunny came. The girls were so surprised that they each got a pillow pet! They LOVE them. That afternoon we went back to my parents house to have a little egg hunt. We had to do it in the basement since it was so cold outside. The eggs were filled with money and a few treats. It was a beautiful weekend (not the weather so much) but the kids enjoyed the fun, and we enjoyed conference!

Baby Lambs



Spring is always an exciting time, lots of changes outside, and baby lambs at the farm! The lambs actually start coming in February when it is really too cold to go and see them, but we braved the cold wind last weekend and went to see the new lambs. My grandpa is so great, he herds those sheep around like a man of 20! He climbed into the pens and brought out some lambs for the kids to hold and pet. It was especially exciting because only moments before we got out to the farm there were 2 new lambs born! The kids loved seeing and petting the lambs and they didn't want to leave, but the moms got too cold! Thanks grandpa for letting us come!

Singin' in the Rain


The girls were so excited to go out and use their umbrellas in the rain! They didn't stay out for long, but they were so cute I had to take a picture.

Fondue!



One night in February DD1 decided she wanted fondue for dessert (or as she calls it- chocolate dip). I ran to the store for some strawberries and pineapple. We also tried bananas and marshmallows. It was very yummy, and not too messy. And as you can see we had lots of fun eating it!
