Easter Weekend (backtracking a bit)

I forgot to write about Easter! The Thursday night before Easter I had a fun evening in Park City with my mom who was getting ready to move to Cedar City. They left on Easter day and I miss her terribly, but I'm excited to visit her down in beautiful southern Utah. We spent the rest of the weekend with David's family in Ogden playing games, watching movies, and eating lots of wonderful food and sweets. I put on a scavenger hunt for the little ones on Saturday thanks to my Dad and his witty rhyming skills. He used to write out an entire day's worth of clues and send me all over the farm in Oregon, hunting down a basket of goodies. I loved it.

Sunday morning church was wonderful and then to our surprise and great lady in the ward invited us over to her house, or farm I should say, to see an entire little family of baby chicks see just bought. It was so fun for all of the kids to hold and touch these sweet little critters. She also let us visit her other animals which included chickens, goats (which she sheers to make and sell angola wool!), rabbits, and sheep. We had a blast.

That was our Easter! I'm very excited for next year when Hazel has a little better idea of what's going on. She does seem to enjoy being around her little cousins who are equally fascinated with her, especially Sam who is about seven months older and is determined to toughen her up and push her around a bit. It was a great fun weekend.
