Easter Fun

A couple of weeks ago I was driving down state street when a lady turned left in front causing a pretty bad wreck. Lily and I were the only ones in the car and fortunately we didn't get hurt. The lane next to me was stopped and apparently someone was letting the lady in to make a left hand turn, but she didn't check to see if anyone was in the right lane. That is where I was driving at about 40 mph. I didn't even have a chance to slam on my brakes because she turned right in front of me. It shook me up quite a bit. I haven't been in any major accidents like that before. The damage on my van was estimated at around $7000. Fortunately the other lady was at fault and so her insurance has to pay for the repairs. In the meantime I am driving the kids around int a 6 passenger truck. A lot different than my van. I can't wait to get my van back!

My mom turned 60 years old last week. Nobody believes that she is 60 because she looks so great for her age.

Me, Elicia, Elizabeth, and Vanessa took my mom to a wonderful dinner at Flemings. The steak was to die for! We stayed in the Hilton hotel and had fun talking and playing games. On Saturday morning we went to get pedicures and had fun shopping. It was a great time. Hopefully we will do it more often.

Since Easter came on Conference weekend this year, I had to dress the kids up in their Easter outfits the week before.

It is so fun having a little girl to dress up!

I had fun going with Noah on his Preschool fieldtrip to the grocery store.

Noah got to weigh some stuff on the scale in the meat department. It was a lot of fun and the store spoiled them with a lot of treats and toys.

On Friday night Grandma and Grandpa had an Easter egg hunt for the kids.

Lily loved the cute little dog that they bought for her.

You know that Lily loves something when she licks it and slobbers all over it.

The kids had a lot of fun getting spoiled by Grandma and Grandpa, even with the cold weather we were having.

On Saturday my mom had a big Easter egg hunt for all of the grandkids. Here they all are waiting for us to yell "go!"

Here are some of the kids checking out the loot they got from the egg hunt.

Saturday night Petyon and Noah made some notes for the Easter Bunny. They even left him some carrots to eat.

Lily was the first to find her Easter basket on Sunday morning. Her favorite thing in the whole basket was the green grass.

Here is Noah finding his Easter basket in the oven.

The Easter Bunny hid Petyon's basket really good this year. Peyton finally found it on the ledge above our front door. He was pretty impressed that the Easter bunny could jump up that high.

We had a wonderful day watching General Conference and having family over for dinner. It was a great Easter Day for our family!
