Happy Easter!



I love Easter...and not just because of the Starburst Jellybeans and Cadbury Mini Eggs...although that is a BIG part of it! :) I love everything the holiday denotes-- the Savior's resurrection and His incredible example--the life He lived and the death He overcame; spring and the rebirth of the world, family, bunnies and chicks and all sorts of cute fuzzy things, really yummy candy, egg hunts and egg rolling contests (which I have come to find most people don't know about those...so sad!)

It was a great Easter...after we finished singing a duet in Sacrament Meeting ;) Rudy was asked to sing and he roped me along with him. Rudy's a great solo singer, however, I'm just a chorus girl. There are not many things that make me feel uncomfortable, and THAT is one of them. But I think the Spirit of the song came across, and that's all we were praying for. Church was great, then we came home and had naps, a bit of an Easter egg hunt, then off to the Tetterton's for a great dinner and some games. Besides really missing family, it was a beautiful day!



Our playgroup had a big Easter egg hunt party on Thursday...look at 'em all waiting so patiently!
That's the face of someone who genetically inherited an intense love of candy! :)

And what's a better end to a day then wrestling with daddy? Ahhh, boys...


And a thank you to the wonderful kids (and their moms!) who kept us company while Rudy was away this past weekend at his first externship. We had a lot of fun and so did he! He's excited to do more externships to continue to get a feel of how 'real world' dentistry is...without all the red tape of dental school. A few more weeks and we're down to our last year! Woo hoo!
