Easter

We had a good Easter weekend.  Brian did not have to work on Friday, Good Friday, so we spent the morning sleeping in, going golfing, grilling with Jim and Elizabeth and tilling our garden! Yes, that's right we are doing a garden with them!  Should be fun.  Saturday we spent the day running errands.  I baked up a little storm!  Rolls and homeade cupcakes!  For those that don't know, I have been on a cupcake frenzie!  You can't find a good cupcake here and Cake Boss makes it too hard not to want some!  I made Snicker chocolate cupcakes with caramel frosting.  All I can say is YUM!  J & E came to our house for dinner and we played cards again.  The girls are on a winning streak. Like a major one!  But don't feel bad for the boys, they killed us for like 15 games straight!

Yesterday we had a wonderful Easter program filled with music.  Our ward has some talent!  We came home, had naps, went to J & E's for dinner, ( I was in charge of rolls and dessert AKA cupcakes), we even got to do an easter egg hunt!  We had talked with them about Easter traditions and ours were really quite similar.  Elizabeth said that Brian and I had eggs too!  I didn't know what to think at first because I thought oh wow, she is being nice and wants to do eggs for us too.  We start opening up our eggs and we see words distributed throughout the eggs. It didn't take us too long before we realized that they were from my Mom and Dad!!!  It was the best suprise ever!!  And never fail, we got our Silver coins! :)

Thanks mom and dad! Sure love you and missed spending Easter with you!
