Happy Easter!

Easter morning we woke up to an inch or so of snow on the ground. So much for an outdoor easter egg hunt. Luckily it was gone by the time that we got out of church.

Camden was so excited and thought that we needed to leave something out for the Easter bunny. She had been planning it for weeks. She decided that carrots with sugar on them and one of her colored eggs would be the best treat! I am sure that he loved them.

The girls all ready for church. It is too bad you can't get them all to look and cooperate at once.

Camden on the hunt. She was determined to get the high egg. And she did!

Kota all excited and dancing around as usual after the hunt.

Oakley was all upset when she realized that she wasn't going to get anymore candy.

The girls all had a great Easter and were as happy as can be. (And who wouldn't be after all that candy right?!)

It's Official!

It's a done deal. Darrick signed on a practice today! Yeah! He was so excited. We are glad to finally have something that will work and be steady. He has worked at 6 different offices since we've been out of the residency and for one reason or another none of them have worked out. We could go into a lot of detail of why, but we'll spare you that at this point. He was tired of jumping from place to place, including doing dentistry in a mobile bus. We are so grateful to him for all that he has done. He has learned tons at each of these experiences and is ready to move on.
To celebrate we went out to dinner. We moved into town the day before so we're not too familiar to everything around, but we were able to find a great restaurant that even had something that the kids would eat.

The Big Move

Once again we are finding ourselves moving. No fun. It takes months to pack up and it feels like even longer to unpack. We didn't really expect to be moving right now, but things don't always work out the way you plan. After packing up, cleaning, and moving, I think that we have come to the conclusion that it is definately worth paying someone else to do it for you. Especially when you have 3 little ones under foot. We are so glad to be done. I don't know where we get all of this stuff. We even got rid of tons this time before we moved and we still filled the truck. Thank goodness we are just down to unpacking the last few boxes!!!

Our little Seamstress

Camden has been into sewing the past few months. For Christmas she made all of us fleece scarves that were so cute. She made every bit of them by herself. A couple of months ago she wanted to make a dress for her bunny. The bunny had supposedly just turned 8 and was getting ready to be baptized. I helped her cut the dress out (out of the only semi-white fabric that I had) and then she sewed it together all by herself. She even added the lace.

Yesterday during conference, we were in the study watching it on the Internet and she decided that she wanted to sew. I got her some fabric and a needle and thread and away she went. She found the dress that she wanted to use for a pattern, I helped her trace it. She then cut it out and sewed it together. The only help she needed was to thread the needle. It turned out cute. She tried it on and it was a little tight, so she decided that she would give it to Kota. Kota was thrilled. She put the dress on and didn't take it off for the rest of the day. She wanted to wear it to bed as well, I didn't want to fight so I agreed to that. I hope that she wakes up with it all in one piece.
