Where to begin?!

Our yard has GRASS!  It has some shrubs now too.  We went to a local nursery and got two burning bushes and a lilac!  Then Kyle's mom let us steal a few plants and a bush from her yard.  (Sweet woman!)  Now this week I will be planting FLOWERS!  I am so excited!  Make a comment of your fave. flowers to grow in the yard!  I need some help!

Problems!

I have a LOT to post! And we all love pictures.

EASTER!

We had our traditional Easter Egg Hunt with the neighbors the day before Easter. It was a big hit! The kids LOVED it, even though it was FrEeZiNg cold and windy! They didn't seem to mind one bit! Below: Kaylee on the hunt for eggs! You can tell by her face it was VERY windy and fun!Here is the whole crew for the Easter Egg Hunt! Smiles and anticipation!!!!
Below: Kaylee at our little preschool Egg Dying Party. The girls (and Konnor) had a blast dying Easter eggs! They didn't even make a mess! SHOCKING, I KNOW!
Hooray for Konnor! He demolished this egg. You can't really tell in the pic, but just take my word for it. But he sure had fun doing it!All of our Pre-Easter events were a LOT of fun! I will post our traditional Easter Dinner as soon as I can. I have been a little busy! Juggling toddlers, being prego, babysitting friends kids, teaching dance, and planning Relief Society meetings. Phew.... That made me tired just typing it all. ha ha

FHE IDEA for EASTER!

My friend Tionna, has a wonderful Family Home Evening lesson idea for this week. I thought I would share it. Easter is a special holiday. And it is NOT about the Easter Bunny.
And for those of you that don't know what a "Family Home Evening" is: It is recommended by the LDS church to save one night a week for your family. It is a time to be together and learn about the gospel, and spend time as a family.
Here is the Lesson:
Type, print and cut apart the following scriptures, keeping them numbered from 1-12. Put them in correspondingly numbered plastic eggs. Add the appropriate item (in parenthesis) to the eggs except for the 12th egg which should remain symbolically empty.
1. Matthew 26:39 (sacrament cup)
2. Matthew 26:14-15 (3 dimes)
3. Matthew 27:1-2 (knotted twine)
4. Matthew 27:24-26 (chunk of soap)
5. Matthew 27:28-30 (square of red velvet)
6. Matthew 27:31-32 (toothpick cross, tiny nail)
7. Matthew 27:35-36 (dice)
8. Matthew 27:50-51;54 (tiny bag of crushed rock or soil)
9. Matthew 27:58-60 (strip of white cloth)
10. Matthew 27:60, 65-66 (a stone)
11. Mark 16:1, Matthew 28:2,5 (bay leaf)
12. Matthew 28:6 (empty)

LESSON: Use the eggs in numerical order to teach about the Easter story. Older children can follow along in their scriptures or give the lesson.

Hope you all have a wonderful Easter week and are able to remember the real reason for the holiday. That our Savior suffered and died for ALL of us. Then on the 3rd day after his crucifixion, he was resurrected! I know our Savior LIVES!
