Easter Egg Adventures


Well Easter has come and gone but we did celebrate. Here in Texas, we discovered a new Easter thing, "the confetti filled egg". I have no idea what the official name is. The boys went on their egg hunt and grabbed eggs when a gasp came from Jonah as he held the egg a bit too tight and it cracked. He discovered it wasn't a hard boiled. It wasn't a runny raw egg either.


Confetti went everywhere, hair, clothes, on the lawn, ground, and porch.





Kirk tried a "turn the kid upside down" method to remove the confetti for good measure before going inside the house.





The children had a good time and stuffed their faces with marshmellow bunnies and birds and jelly beans. Not really a spiritual time but a fun family moment. We enjoyed a nice sacrament meeting earlier that day on the last week of Jesus Christ's life and his Atonement and Resurrection.

Things have been busy here and it's April 14th and somehow my taxes still aren't done. How did that happen? (we don't totally do our own taxes you see) Still I'm sure it's my fault. Follow up, follow up, follow up. Take care and I'll try to do better with .... follow up!

That roller coaster looked really scary. Jonah did a pretty good job with his hair. I love that idea with the eggs, We had out kids out there playing catch with raw eggs, that was so funny. So glad you guys are settled in and you sold your house, thats at least one less headache to worry about. Challenge Charter School will be changing just a bit, Wendy will be principal and Tamy Nitch will be her vice, Norman the bus driver will retire I guess those Camelback kids got the better of him. Matthew was glad to see pics of Nick and the boys. Take Care talk to you soon. Silvia
