Easter

 As soon as the carpet was installed on Thur, we made a mad dash for COSTCO and then headed home for Cowley/Lovell.  We stayed with dad this time.  Mike n Todd and their families were all out of town and dad was feeding all their animals (fish, sheep, chickens) so dad took a different kid of mine with him each time to feed and they LOVED it.  Fri we went to see Shayla's new house and let the kids play, that night we dyed easter eggs at gpa Simmons.  Sat we went to Asays for a par-tay.   Uncle Christian put a Jerusalem cricket (big ugly nasty cricket) in one of the easter eggs gma Asay hid and Kandace Asay was the lucky winner.  She cried and said "there's a bee in my egg."  Funny stuff.  Christian gave her a dollar for it.  Pretty sweet.  We had hotdogs and then took lunch to Michael.  Seeing him that day was one of the highlights of my easter break.  He worked in Powell that weekend and I missed him.  Everything is better with him and I love him.

 Easter Sunday we went to dad's church which is Cowley 1st ward now since the boundary changes.  We sat in front of ElRay and Ann Bridges.  Dad was in the choir seats.  The Bridges sure made us feel welcome and we chatted with them.  I loved going to that ward.  Nick Sponsel gave an awesome easter talk and the spirit was there which I was grateful for.  Helps me put everything in perspective and feel happy and grateful.
 After dinner at dads we took a drive around the farm and went to Asays for dinner again.  Delish.  I love all the yummy food we get when we go home. I brought deviled eggs to Jans but we forgot about them 'til after dinner.  Whoops.
This girl loves chocolate icecream.  Oh my.
