Easter Weekend with the Family

Easter was a blast!!  We went to Hyrum to visit my parents and spent all day Saturday at a park. The kids played kickball--which was seriously competitive.  My mom DOVE to get on a base safely.  Red Rover (where only 3 kids cried).  And a lot of time was spent on the merry-go-round, as Leo spent a lot of time pushing them all.  Wyatt walked across the top of the swings, because he's Wyatt. And we dyed eggs and made some crafts that Megan brought.  And of course, ate tons of delicious food.  Leo and Ana went in the early morning to do baptisms for the dead and baptized their grandma, Beatriz.  I convinced Leo to stay extra long on Sunday (he had to work Monday) because the kids were on spring break, and they all fell nicely to sleep only to wake up at Green River, where we switched driving so Leo could sleep, and various kids took turns crying all the rest of the way home.  Leo swears he's never doing that again.  We should have just stopped for gas at the beginning and I should have driven the whole way.  Lessons you learn.  Olivia took photos for me, so there's a lot.  And I did finish the girls' Easter dresses on time this year!!  Yay!!!  And the boys' bowties and tie I decided to make Friday morning before I left, so I ended up finishing them that night at Megan's.  I love being close to family--it's the number one reason that I'm so happy to live where we do now.  It's close enough to drive home!
