April Fools is Right!



Um, remember how it's spring?
This is a joke, right?

I think we'll postpone Easter for a week.

Doesn't that sound good? We'll just cozy up for Conference (mmmmmm), keep dying eggs and eating our Mini Cadburies, spend Lucy's spring break celebrating with some of the great ideas Deanna wrote about and a few others we haven't had time for, and then we'll pull out the baskets and dresses in time for our April 11 Easter church service. The kids won't even know the difference! And maybe by then our Easter blossoms won't be covered in snow. =)

But I'm not too bitter. We've had fun, if snowy, spring days.

Thought this looked fun.  We actually never played the game.  Just made the cards.  Lucy thought that was the game.  I felt no need to correct her. 

And I'll tell you what I love: Robin Eggs.


Remember doing blue lips with your big sis? Me too!



We've had fun playdates!


And the parable of the burnt cupcakes is: They look just as pretty as not-burnt ones.


(So watch out!)

In the end, I'm just happy that Spencer didn't get away with his April Fool's trick of hiding my keys in the bottom corner of Lucy's pajama drawer.

We found them.
After a mere day and a half of frantic searching.
You're lucky I love you, boy!

I can't believe the snow you've had! Crazy!
And I love that look on Spencer's face... I think he'd fit right in at our house :)

Let me guess...they were your work keys. I seemed to always loose my house keys (I once lost that key for about 2-3 months and Paul was kind enough to let me keep looking). I am glad you found the keys though.
Have fun enjoying the up and downs of spring.

I was a bit surprised by the snow too...and the hail. We got a bunch of large marble sized pieces of hail on our balcony. It was kind of fun to listen to it crash onto our roof.

Ugghhh!!! My in-laws in Park City have had over 2 feet of snow in the last week or so! I can't say I envy them.

I always knew I needed a big sister...I just didn't know it was for blue lips. :) And I never thought of teaching that to my younger sister...

I shared your lamb story with my boys for family night on Monday, using a little plastic sheep I have and pictures from our gospel art kit. They soaked it up and it was the quietest they have been for FHE for a LONG time. Thanks so much for taking the time to share that. You are so wonderful.
