An eventful weekend

Our weekend was jam-packed with fun. Things started off right with a Nacho party at my brother's house on Friday night. We watched Nacho Libre and ate nachos and corn-on-the-cob-on-a-stick (with paprika but thankfully no mayo). It was our first time seeing the show and it's hilarious! It seems like one of those that will get more funny each time you see it. One of the highlights of the night was seeing my mom laugh until she cried while Nacho sang the song he wrote about Encarnacion.


On Saturday we bought and planted some flowers and then headed up to Layton for an egg hunt at the Squire house. Tyler's parents hide lots of money in eggs and it's every man for himself to see who gets the most. Tyler and I historically come out on top, but this year we came in dead last with a whopping $13 combined. But hey, it's better than nothing, and it was kind of fun to run around in the mud. There was a separate hunt in the basement for the kids and Ada loved finding all the dark pink eggs. Tyler's mom is very generous and we had a great time.


Sunday, of course, was Easter. The Bunny left some goods downstairs before church. Church was great. I accompanied the ward choir in sacrament meeting and Ada learned about the resurrection in nursery and told Tyler all about it. After church we went to my grandparents' house for dinner and my grandma hid eggs outside for Ada and Ella. Ada has WAY too much candy and has been eating it like crazy. Nonetheless, the weekend was great.










Perhaps the biggest event of all is the engagement of my sister Abby. We've known she was getting married for a few weeks now (she already has her dress and they already have the temple and reception center reserved), but it became official on Sunday. Her ring is really pretty. She just got home from her mission March 5, but they dated before both of their missions and this has come as no surprise. I'm so excited for my baby sister, who doesn't seem old enough to be getting married (although she's older than I was). Congrats to the happy couple, and welcome to the family, Scott!

The girls looks so cute in their easter dresses! I love the picture with Kate and her snot bubble- that will be a great picture to keep around and show her friends when she is older.
