Happy Belated Easter! We had a blast! Our Easter weekend started late on Friday at our friends the Hofhiens, who invited us over for dinner and egg coloring. The kids LOVED it! And we are glad Chrissy and Mark are back from their trip to Arizona. On Saturday we had our yearly egg hunt and brunch at our apt complex. The kids experienced their first cascarones - a Mexican tradition in which you fill a real egg shell with confetti and crack it on someone's head for laughs and giggles...they LOVED IT! And lastly, we had a wonderful service on Sunday and Olivia and Matthew wore their special Easter outfits. All the little girls at church looked very cute with their special dresses. Olivia sends a big THANK YOU to Abuela for her dress! :) Matthew offered the scripture and closing prayer in Primary and did a FANTASTIC job! To top it all off, after church we headed over to the Collette's for a mini egg hunt! WE had a great holiday! But most importantly, we celebrated the miracle that is Christ the Lord. The kids got a great lesson on the true meaning of Easter and we enjoyed our family time to the MAX!

The kids are so cute in their Easter clothes. They are looking so grown-up -- I can't believe how fast they are growing.

Love,
