Our Easter Stroll

Since we didn't have church on Easter Sunday this year (due to General Conference--which was AMAZING!), we wanted to celebrate the beauty of the day by going on a nice stroll with my mommy over in Plainfield.

Here's my wonderful hubbie. Oh! and baby, too!

Relaxing together as a family on our front porch. It felt so sweet. It's nice to get a break from all our commitments once in a while. We really enjoyed calling family and letting them know how much we love them.

(what an expression)

My favorite thing to see...

Look at these great dads all taking care of their kids. Good job men. What a beautiful thing to see.

Wait a sec... where's my guy?

(j/k. he's the one taking the pics ;0)

What Cuties

Gorgeous Ellie

Doesn't Vincent look so handsome?!

Little Owen. His skin looks so porcelain and smooth.

Ally, I love your spirit!

No, we were SO close!

Okay, so at the end of Crisco's birthday party I convinced everyone to stick around to play just one round of Guesstures (my favorite game). I totally thought that the girls would kick the boys' boo-tays. (Nichole and I are serious gamers, to say the least.) Little did I know, though, that the guys had some kind of ESP thing going on. I gotta give us ladies some credit, we did end the round tied with the boys. However, when we went into over-time the score ended totally lopsided: 8-12. So sad!



Here are the boys, holding their trophy and gloating in their win! Number one (not!).

The ladies.
(Sorry Miranda that you guys headed out before we took the group pics.)

BTW--next time, we are totally winning...I think.

Happy Birthday, My Little Christian!

I love you, baby!



The birthday boy. My Easter baby.
Born on April 12th, Easter Sunday. So sweet.

Crisco: Hey Mom, can we have this every day?
I love this stuff!

My sweetheart. He delighted in eating his own cake and loved making a huge mess. It's the only way to go on your 1st birthday.

Crisco: Hey Dad, ya want some! It's the bestest!
