Easter Highlights

Our annual egg coloring. I should call it "naked" egg coloring. Don't want to
ruin those cute clothes do we?

finished product

The Easter bunny brought Rapunzel dolls!

Wahoo!

My "basket" Easter cake.  My first try doing the basket weave.

Turned out pretty good, I think.


I could not get Ashli to stay by her sisters for a good Eastser dress picture

I'm going to get matching dresses as long as I can.....or until Maili tells me
to stop!

Come back Ashli!

Darling girls!

Our annual family Easter egg hunt!




This little bunny was loving it!

Haeli found the "golden" egg


Since I've been baking a lot of cakes, this is a common scene at our place lately!
Happy Easter everyone!  It was a great day and we even think the girls understood the true meaning a bit better this year.

petting farm field trip

Every year with preschool we have been able to go to Thanksgiving point and have some fun with the animals!
Traditional wagon ride!

Feeding the ducks

Haeli was asking the ENTIRE time when we were going to get to ride the horsies! It wasn't even part of the field trip package, but I couldn't stand to break her heart!

ride-em cowgirl!

Yee Haw!


April catch-up

APRIL FOOL'S!
Everyone was so excited to have cake for dinner!  It was meatloaf with mashed potatoes and ketchup decorations!

The best one was the drink. Wow mom made punch?!!!
Nope it was JELLO!



Another good snow storm in April!

It only lasted about a day, but it was almost as exciting as the first one...Not for me....
I am ready for Spring!

Haeli in a very common position. Love it!

Word of Wisdom

Maili's primary teacher told me a funny story about Maili today.
Teacher: What things did Joseph Smith tell us that the Lord said we shouldn't eat?
Maili: "We shouldn't eat the boogers from our nose!"

what am I

This morning the girls were pretending to be different animals and we had to guess what they were.
They would give us hints to help us.
Haeli: I swim in the water
me: a fish, an alligator
Haeli: and I ate Joseph Smith!
me: um I don't think anything ate Joseph Smith
Maili: No, she means a prophet....she's a whale!
me: ohhhhhhhh
