EASTER and HUGHES VISIT


We dyed eggs for the first time with Maddy this Easter. It was so much fun to watch her get so excited. We didn't realize we got a tricky kit (it was tye dye versus just colors) so we tried doing a tye dye egg first. But then resorted to just using the colors.



All of our finished eggs. She was so proud of them!





April 22nd was our 5 year wedding anniversary. Josh took me to the Titanic Exhibit and then to a wonderful little Italian restaraunt called Nora's. The whole evening was wonderful and I was able to keep the morning sickness to a minimum. I love this man so much!!! I am so grateful he chose me and that we were blessed to be sealed in the temple for time and all eternity. He is a wonderful husband, father and friend. I count my blessings each day I get to wake up next to him.


For Easter we spent the late morning early afternoon with the Waters Clan. It was so much fun, the aunts and uncles had games for everyone and then we had a HUGE egg hunt. The kids were definitley spoiled by the end of it. We love being close to both families so that we can be apart of all these family memories.



Maddy and cousin Sarah getting ready for the pass the life-saver from one another using a pretzel. Well before the adults could get the lifesavers handed out all the kids had eaten their pretzels so we used toothpicks instead. :)


The annual 3 legged race! Something funny always happens and this year did not fail us. In the picture below you can see a team go down....yes that is Josh and Melissa. SO FUNNY!!






Next game on the menu: How many cookies can you stack on your partners head?



I NEED MORE COOKIES!!!


Get your cookied from your forehead to your mouth without using your hands. Dallin was a total pro!




And then the long awaited EGG HUNT!






In the late afternoon we went and had dinner and egg hunt with the Mangum side. It was extra special this year because Jessica and Kevin and Kristin and Ryan were able to be here during this holiday.




Another game of get the cookie to your mouth without using your hands. Maddy even tried it this time.


And more egg hunting, definitley the highlight for Maddy.






Cousins make the BEST of friends!



HAPPY EASTER!!!!


Easter is over and now it's time to just have straight cousin time before they go back to Boston.
