Happy Easter!

Here are Josh, Halle & Halle's friend Maddie dying the Easter eggs to get ready for the Easter Bunny!


I wanted to take pictures of them searching for the eggs, but they were running way to fast!



Luckily Matthew stepped in and helped the little kids find the rest of the eggs.


Josh & Halle with their loot!



The best part about Easter was having Brad home for the day and being able to watch General Conference! You can see that Josh & Halle have both missed having their dad around!

Viva Las Vegas!

We are in the middle of tennis season, which means we occasionally see Brad pass through the house for a few hours. This time of year, there isn't much to blog other than tennis, tennis, and more tennis. This past week I took the kids to Vegas for John & Matthew to play in a sectional (6 states) tournament.
In our family we have an unwritten rule that everyone helps the person just younger than them in tennis. For example: Brad plays with John, John plays with Matthew, Matthew plays with Josh. So I thought it was so cute when Halle went out to hit, to see Josh jump out there and show her the right way to hit the ball!

Halle hitting!

Josh hitting!


The best part about tennis tournament is that the kids get to see their tennis friends. Here is John with Keaton Cullimore (from Salt Lake), Yannick Mahlangu (from Vegas) and Matt Oddonetto (from Boise).



John serving!


John's doubles partner, Keaton, told us that he had never been to the Bellagio to see the fountains. We were surprised because the boys play tournaments in Vegas 3-4 times a year. We decided he NEEDED to see the fountains!
Here the kids are in front of the Bellagio!
