Almost camping trip & Easter

First, here' s a few cute conversations with the kids...

The other night there was a full moon... it was really pretty and yellow. Paige saw it and said, "Look, the sun is out!" Derek says, "No, it's the moon." Kevin then says very seriously, "No, it's the Earth!!"

We were talking at lunch the other day about Mexico and I was explaining that Mexico is beneath us and we live in New Mexico. Paige looks at me and says, "No Mom, this is Albuquerque, not Mexico."


Here are some Easter goodies we made for our neighbors and friends this year.. They are rice krispy treats coated in chocolate. Yummy.


We had been planning on going camping for a few weeks. And wouldn't you know it the one day we plan on going is the coldest and windiest day of the week. We still packed up and went just in case the weather cleared up, but it didn't. It even snowed on us a bit on the drive up (about 45 minutes from here). So instead we went home and built a fire pit and cooked our tin foil dinners anyway. Our beds were way more comfortable than the tent would've been that night. Doesn't Tad look proud?


Dinner was yummy... chicken, beans, veggies and biscuits.... Yummy!



We did our Easter Egg hunt yesterday. This was Darci's first hunt and she had a lot of fun carrying around her basket. She was so quick it was hard to get a good picture of her, so thats why there's so many of her... It was also right after naps so don't mind the messy heads!




Darci watched us hide the eggs and was NOT happy that she couldn't go outside!


















We had a good Easter although we wish we were closer to family and cousins to spend the time with. We are also very grateful for the atonement and sacrifice of our savior Jesus Christ.
