Easter, Dillons, Palisade camping, and Manti temple

Brothers on a hike.
Easter egg hunt in the basement.
Each brother got their own turn.

Charlie loved the bow from Ella's birthday present at the Poulsen Easter feast.
Paul spent some quality time with Grandma Lu.
Charlie and his Burton cousins.
Charlie and I made a bunch of deviled eggs the day after Easter.
Taking an outdoor nap in my zero gravity chair!
He kissed me!!!!
Dillon/kids spent a day at our house, since we were all on Spring Break at the same time. Gabe is a doll!!
The kinetic sand was a favorite.
Intense wind at Palisade State Park.

Eating Easter candy on our bed in the cabin.

Fishing.
Back to the brothers on a hike.


Risk is perfect for this country-loving boy!

Qwirkle for these two.
Happy Easter!


Toby has been into smiling this week, and sometimes he even let me take his picture!

Sore wisdom teeth on Easter.
Dyeing eggs.







He loved his egg hunt!


Trying to do Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson eyebrows.

Cook'n'serve pudding for the girls' smooth foods diet.
Farmington Bay with Grace.
The day Dillon/kids came over. Gabe prefers his dad, but likes me pretty well:)
Alice helped the kids make bead bracelets. She is the favorite for that kind of stuff!
These boys followed Gabe around making sure he didn't go anywhere dangerous - he is a fast walker, and crawls up/down stairs!
Grace colors flag after flag for this boy, and he LOVES her for it!
9 and 8. The height difference!
Marty fell asleep on Alice and was snoring loudly:)
Dillon and his cuddly baby!
We had a couple of deacons over to make pizza.

Grace was so sick of pudding and applesauce that she made herself pureed avocados and loved it!
Farmington Bay with Paul.




The way up to the hike I'd planned for our camping trip. Pretty soon, it was just too deep to drive any farther.
Making a small fire in the grill for our hot dogs.
Hot dogs inside the cabin because the wind was crazy!


The lake was really wavy in the wind, and it was really cold!






Grace continued her flag coloring job at the cabin.
Playing cards while Charlie and Paul built the fire.




Toby slept on the floor.

Boiling water on the camp stove for breakfast.
Manti Temple open house.


Huge line!

Fishing.









More Risk.
Cinnamon rolls for General Conference breakfast.
Alice helped Danny make his marionette for school. Can you tell it's Winston Churchill?

Charlie with a pipe cleaner mustache.
Poor Paul has had such bad allergies the past couple days:(
Cool rocks on the way to the hike that never was.

We also saw this bloody sheep Grace became obsessed with.
Alice in the wind.
Grace's cool fire pic. (Or, Grace's pic is FIRE!)




Back home.
In love on Easter.

Cool old building in Ephraim.
Snow this morning!
Our primary when I was 3. I'm in the front middle left.
