Easter

This was at our Ward Easter Celebration. They served a yummy breakfast of muffins, fruit, yogurt and juice and had a fun Easter Egg Hunt afterward. The kids each got to find 10 eggs and they had a blast doing so. Kimbri missed the ward Easter party last year so I think she was having extra amounts of fun this year :) 

Easter bunny glasses from last year!

Dying Easter eggs! The kids thought it was pretty cool to make the eggs change colors. And it was fun to have Olivia here celebrating with us since she was visiting for her Spring Break!

Easter baskets! Got some stuff at the dollar section in Target to put in their baskets. Kimbri and Garrett love stickers so we got a couple pads of stickers for them to do in church along with candy of course :)

No basket for Rick but I still got him some treats.

We hid one smart in each plastic egg. Garrett was ecstatic!

Found some smarties in her basket.

Finding the Easter eggs.

And this is what our front room looked like after Easter morning!

Kimbri working on painting her Easter egg piñata.

We had enough roses from our rose bush in the backyard to make a small bouquet for Easter! They smell divine!

More of Spring Break...

I know I've already posted about a few things we did while Rick was on Spring Break but here is the rest of what we did that week:

- Went on a family walk to the park. While we were there the sprinklers turned on and Kimbri couldn't resist. She had a blast!

- We also went to a little get together with some of the other medical school families at the Giles' home. We had lunch and all the kids ran around and played together. 

- The day after the get together we watched Kelsey, the Giles' daughter while they went to the temple. Then the next day they watched Kimbri and Garrett so that we could go to the temple. It worked out great! 

- We also thought it would be fun to do a little family dinner outing. Pizza Pie Cafe just opened a location here in Gilbert so we went there and the kids loved it. They have a salad bar, a pizza bar, pasta bar and a dessert pizza bar. So obviously there was plenty to fill up on. And it was nice to just sit down and start eating so the kids didn't have to wait to order and wait for the food, etc... Waiting is hard for them, haha... for any little kid I guess.

We were so glad to be able to spend so much time with Rick while he was on spring break!!!!

Zoo Trip with Dad

We have been to the Phoenix Zoo countless of times but we don't get to go very often with daddy! Since Rick had spring break in March, we got to do a lot of things with dad, including the zoo!

I loved this view! There was next to nobody
at the zoo the morning we went!

All worn out and about to fall asleep on the drive home.
