Pre-Easter Celebration

Since Mike's parents are going to be out of town this weekend (Easter Weekend) we celebrated and early once this last Sunday. Here are a picture of the current Grand-kids.

From left to right, Morgan, 'C", Caden, and Gracie!!! Yep, Gracie came home, just the day after C came home, and that meant party time (or sleepy time, because we wore her out a bit!) It was cute to try and get all of them to look at the camera (or the 20 people jumping up and down and hollering for them to look over this way!) Since there is only one grandkid old enough to enjoy Easter, the last few years have been the adults getting the eggs. Last year, they tied our legs together. This year they blindfolded the G kids and had their spouses tell them where the eggs were. It was hilarious, needless to say!!!


The beautiful thing about this pre-Easter celebration is that with the exception of Mike's brother being on an LDS mission in Brazil (and just about a month left till he comes home) it was the first time in a long time everyone was there for family dinner. I love this picture of Grandpa and C, he just loves to look at faces and really seems to love his family!!! We are still adjusting to parenthood, but are just loving our sweet little boy. His little smiles just melt our hearts. And today was a HUGE day, and because of todays events, we will be able to adopt our little boy this fall!!! It is a GREAT day in our little family, in so many ways!

  1. That picture of C and grandpa is great! I love the idea of blindfolding one spouse and having the other give directions for finding eggs. What a cute idea... stealing it!
