"Happy Resurrection Day!"

We had a wonderful Easter Weekend!  Saturday we went to Crystal and Spencer's so the kids could dye Easter egg's.  The kids had fun making a mess and grandma LOVES watching it!

The kids always start out so "Clean"

Izzy

Pretty Flowers

Pretty Jayden

RaLee

The adults watched conference...with all of the distractions Crystal's Tivo sure comes in handy!

Sunday morning Easter Baskets...yes RaLee and DJ still get baskets!  I love playing Easter Bunny.  Royal and Charlee traveled to Holbrook this weekend and then to Flagstaff and home again.  When he saw DJ's basket Sunday evening he said, "Where's mine?"  I said, "Sorry your married now."  DJ said, "DUDE that sucks, yet another reason why I'm NEVER getting married!"  DJ loves making fun of Royal's new married status.  Royal doesn't mind at all he LOVES being married!

Then we went to Crystal's home for an egg hunt and dinner.  Amanda made a deliciouse ham!

Easter is Trey's favorite Holiday!  After family prayers Saturday night he said to Crystal, "I can't wait for the Resurrection tomorrow because Jesus will bring Sage back!"  She had to tell him that it probably wouldn't happen tomorrow but that he was right...One beautiful day Jesus will bring Sage back!

Bizzy Izzy

Wayne...I got to pull his tooth Sunday morning...I'm the official family "tooth puller"...afterwards he declared "I'm going to be rich!"

Little Miss Jay Jay

Baby Caden's first Easter

He is such a good baby!

Then there was some friendly but very serious squirt gun fights!

Time for PEEPS!

Both Cheeks shoved full of Peeps!

I asked Crystal if she noticed most of the eggs were dyed green she said the kids told her they did that for Sage...sage green.  So sweet...the kids never forget him.

You never know what's going to come out of a child's mouth especially with Trey.  He helped grandpa gather eggs in the chicken coop on Saturday and he later told Crystal, "If my Prampa wouldn't  shake those eggs up on his way to the house my "Pramma's" refridgerator would be FULL of baby chicks!  Prampa is a chicken killer!"  This little boy always makes me laugh.

Then for a bit of excitement.  Jessica and Amanda were in the front room visiting.  Jessica was talking about how she was having a hard time laying her baby down to sleep at night.  She is afraid he won't wake up again and Amanda was telling her how she really struggled with that after Izzy was born.  Then they both looked up and the two chandeliers were swinging back and forth.  They were swinging so much that one of them was actually touching the plant on the pot shelf above the door.  Amanda came into the family room and said, "Hurry you will want to see this!"  She explained what they had been talking about and how all of a sudden the lights started swinging violently.  She said, "Do you think it's Sage?"  I said, "You know it's probably an earthquake and they looked at me like I was nuts.  I tried to film it on my cell phone and couldn't figure out how to do it so Amanda eventually got some of it recorded after they had nearly came to a stop.  Then Teele's phone rang and his friend, Sunny Penrod, told us there was an earthquake in Baja, CA!  Sunny said it really shook his house.  Guess Grandma wasn't crazy after all.  But the timing was kind of strange.

We had a nice Easter weekend enjoying our family and listening to the conference talks.  I really missed not getting to watch it on our TV Saturday morning.  I remember listening to it on the radio for 20+ years and being so amazed that I could actually watch it on TV and this time we watched it on the computer...Teele was pretty impressed. 

I hope everyone had a "Happy Resurrection Day!"....That's what Trey calls it and I think I like that name much better!
