Dressed up for Easter

 Since Easter was over conference we didn't get to wear our new outfits on actual Easter.  The next week we dressed up in our new Spring outfits.  The best kids ever!!

Our 3 beautiful girls!

Sweet Lucy

I love having Lucy home with me while the other kids are at school.  She is my little friend and keeps me company all day.  Lucy loves her stuffed animals!  My other girls loved their dolls, but Lucy takes care of her animals.  She feeds them, puts them to bed, and worries about them.  Her favorite animal is her dog biscuit.  I just love you so much Lucy!!

Easter Sunday

 This year Easter fell on the same weekend as General Conference.  So, we were able to stay home relax and listen to amazing talks all day.  We had Easter dinner at our house this year!  We had an egg hunt in the back yard followed by a yummy Easter dinner.  Eliza was sick with strep throat and had to stay up in her room the whole evening.  We were successful in not getting anyone else sick!  It was fun to have the whole Schwitzer family over for dinner.

 Tom was sporting his awesome 80's hair!

It's always a fun time with the cousins!

Coloring Easter Eggs and Conference

 I love this time of year!  Easter is such a wonderful time to be with family, and reflect on our love for the Savior.  We colored Easter eggs together as a family.

 You all made such beautiful eggs to fill your baskets!

That evening Jason went to Priesthood for the first time.  He has been waiting for this time for a long time.  Hanging with the girls was getting old.  He enjoyed being in the conference center with all the Priesthood!  My boys looked so good all dressed up!

First Day of Spring

 It has been such a great Spring this year!  We have had extra warm weather and the kids have enjoyed having the extra time outside.  This day we worked real hard all day in our yard and the girls worked real hard on this card board car.  They had so much fun making it.  It even has radio tuned to FM 100.3.  Lucy and Eliza walked around having car adventures all day.

 It started to get cool in the evening so we turned on the the fire pit for the first time this season.

 Anne is super flexible and strong.  She has mastered lots of tricks on our bar in the back yard.  She was showing off some of her tricks.

I watch her and to do what she does you have to have seriously arm and stomach muscle strength.  I guess all her ballet work has made her super strong in those areas.  We love you Anne!

The Fishing Pond

 We had the annual Fishing Pond at Grandma and Grandpa Schwitzer's early this year.  The kids look forward to this every year!  Grandma and Grandpa do such a great job picking out treasures that all the individual kids will love.  It's just a fun night to be with family!

 Lucy and Emily loved all the Hello Kitty gifts.

Who loves Grandma's fish pond!?   These kids do!  We are so lucky to live so close to family!

A sick day

One day Anne felt a little sick so, we kept her home from school.  Lucy was so happy to have Anne home all day to herself.  Anne set up a little tea party when we noticed that Max joined in.  He sat  at the table with the girls while they had a tea party.  We were laughing so hard at him!
