Well, this is just going to be extremely lame, because I hardly took any pictures for Easter. But here's all the baskets before the kids got a hold of them...
Eric got Risk. He has wanted it for awhile. See how happy he is?
And Jacob got a DS game...Kirby, I believe.
Brandon got a new key chain, with a car key attached, since he's going to get his license in a couple of months...no, not his own car, but his own key! Kyle got a lego set, which he loved, and Dallin got a camping lantern. Each of the children got a new book and some Easter candy. It was a wonderful Easter! (And Eric got to be home for a whole week for Spring Break, which was awesome!)
On Monday (the day after Easter), we got together with Brad and Michelle and their family, and Grandma and Grandpa Johnson to celebrate "family birthdays." It was really fun. We made peep s'mores...and they were a big hit! (and in case you didn't notice, I decided to take a picture of the treat instead of the people, because after all, that's what posterity wants to see, right?) Duh! Sorry about that!
Dallin was asked to give a talk on Easter Sunday. He wanted to prepare it himself and because his dad is such a good speaker, and doesn't seem to need to write down any more than a few "bullets" on an index card, Dallin figured he could do the same thing. This is Dallin's talk. It is a 1 and 1/2 inch by a 1 and 1/2 inch post-it note, with a few little phrases on it to remind him what to say. That's really all he needs, right?
(Okay, I went through it with him and typed up real sentences on an actual 8 1/2 by 11 piece of paper, just incase he forgot what each of those "phrases" meant). And he gave one heck-of-a talk! He's a natural, and everyone said he's just like his dad. And that's okay with me...
Happy Easter!
