Easter 2013

 Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt at the Spauldings. Each family contributed 12 eggs per child attending, and the Spauldings went to a bunch of businesses for coupons and other prizes as well. It was awesome!
 Sophie, Lucas Spaulding and Spencer all lined up, ready to go!

 Sophie and Brooke Ricks showing off their baskets.

And on to Salt Lake and Nana and Papa's House for Spring Break! Of course we hit the zoo, and its amazing new Sea Lion and Polar Bear exhibits...


 ...and Pioneer State Park, another of our favorite SL stops. And yes, Nana's the best!

 Learning to write their names with the Deseret alphabet in the schoolhouse.

 Uh oh, Spencer's getting punished! What did you do this time, buddy? :-)
 Baby animals everywhere! Including a 20-minute old baby goat!

 Panning for "gold" - always a favorite activity. This time we also got to talk to a "mountain man" who told us all about their survival techniques and living quarters. Fascinating! I love this park!

 Tapping leather.
And, to top it off, Conference was during our spring break this year! Thanks to Papa's connection with President Monson, who always gives us great Conference tickets, Gary and the girls got to sit with all the GA families right up front for the Sunday morning session. Pretty darn awesome! We are so lucky. So many blessings in our lives.
