Happy Easter.
This was my favorite Easter we've had in a long time.
The month was really calm. We had a lot to do, but it was always scheduled. Piano, soccer, activity days, and friends birthday parties kept us busy, but we had plenty of breathing and wiggle room.
My parents came to town the weekend of Good Friday. I put together a little get together and we colored eggs and visited. That night, Gram E. planned a family dinner and put on a beautiful evening. We ended the night by seeing the Easter pageant at the Mesa Arizona temple. It was cold and rainy and we did our best to not be cranky about it. We left Wade and Jake at home, and that was probably the best thing for the night. They would've been miserable.
On Easter, we hid the same 11 hard boiled eggs and took turns hiding them. Wade loved finding them and his little voice brought me so much joy. "Oh! Here's one!"
The month cooled off with Emily getting a perm at EVIT. She's been wanting one for months and made me schedule it!
Gwen had her last concert for band as a 5th grader! Can't wait for this year to end.

She said, "I was so scared when they rinsed it out that the curls would come out!" |
 |
She loves it so much! |
 |
These curls make her look totally different! |

Playing at her assembly. |

Didn’t get a video or full picture, but she had a duet and KILLED it! |
 |
She practices so often and hearing her play took my breath away! Such a difference in her skill from last year to the beginning of the year to now! |

We got Coldstone to celebrate a job well done! Proud of this sweet girl! |
