Easter Weekend

We had a wonderful Easter weekend! Russ' little brother, Ethan, was getting ordained an Elder and so Russ' parent's came into town for this awesome event! And it just happened to be Easter weekend...so on Saturday night we went to Red Robin (Rayann, Ethan's Fiance, works there...so we decided to pay a visit and it is kid friendly). We had a great dinner and had lots of fun. The girls weren't too bad...

Then, we came home and put Taylor to bed. Now it was time to decorate some Easter eggs with Lindsey! She had lots of fun! The next morning Russ went to make pancakes and we died the wrong ones! Oooppp! Good thing none of them broke while we were dying them...that would have been a BIG mess!

On Sunday, we went to Stake Conference and got to be in the presence of an Apostle of God, Elder L. Tom Perry. It was amazing! The gym was a little on the warm side and so I got a little sleepy, but it was still wonderful. Russ stayed home with the kiddos (it was so nice not having to chase after and entertain kids for the 3+ hours we were there) and came right at the end for the ordination. It was really neat to see Ethan become an Elder and are so proud of him!!

After Conference, Russ' parent's left to go back to Grand Junction and we went over to my parent's house for a yummy Easter dinner! We ate and then the kids opened their gifts from my Mom and Dad. We had lots of fun! What a fun weekend we had! (Taylor right before we went to my parent's house, so cute!)

These are just some fun pictures of the girls in their favorite "hand-me-down" car.....they literally fight over it!!
