Easter


We spent Easter in Lincoln again.  It was a beautiful spring day!


It was Jensen's birthday

And we had our annual egg hunt












On our way back to Hastings, we had just missed a hail storm.  There was hail everywhere.  It looked like snow.  And there was standing water all over.  We had gotten a lot of rain!

My birthday

Zach took our kids shopping for me for my birthday.  All three wanted to get me a plant, so he had to talk them into different things.  Pierce picked out a beautiful variegated ZZ plant.


Zach's parents made me bread pudding, and it was DELICIOUS!



Graham got me an egg pan.  I eat eggs every morning, and he thought I should have a new pan :)


Monroe got me flowers and money toward a shopping day for the two of us.


Zach got me way too many Reese's eggs and a new coat.
I hadn't gotten my colors done when he ordered it, and it just happens to be my color!

We went to Ninja for supper

March Fun


I had a love/hate relationship with the boys' hair.  I loved it long, but it was also more work than when it's short.


Handsome either way

Our nephew had a nerf gun birthday party.  Our kids had a blast




The boys will be 7 shortly, and they still had infant pictures on their wall.  It needed a refresh.


Graham lost both of his front teeth.  He is so stinking cute.  Monroe didn't lose them at the same time, so this is my first toothless kid.

My mom's surprise birthday party


My mom's 70th birthday was on March 25.  We planned her a surprise birthday party that definitely caught her be surprise.  





We had a great turn out with so many friends coming to celebrate her.



Her three siblings came from Tulsa



The party planners




The next day my siblings and spouses all went to brunch and Book of Mormon.  Zach and I had seen it maybe eight years ago.  We loved it again, and so did everyone else.  The music and satirical humor are so well done!
