Easter

The kids Easter morning.

We went over to Pop pop and Gramie's for dinner after church. Pop pop made a very yummy dinner of leg of lamb.

Looks like the Easter Bunny visited Gramie's house too.

Family Bowling and Bull Ridding

We had a really great time the other day at the bowling alley.

We ordered pizza and everyone bowled.

Shermie got a strike!

Then we took turns on the mechanical bull. Annalyn sat for about two seconds and when it started to move she had had enough of it. Nicholas stayed on for a long time.

They were so much fun too watch I couldn't stop laughing the whole time.

Dying Eggs

We decide this year to dye some Easter eggs. So with the help of Grandma we gathered around the table.

Annalyn taking in the lovely color of her hands.

This egg matches his eyes.

What a wonderful rainbow of eggs.

Thanks grandma for joining us.

Leaping Lizards

Matthew found this little collared lizard while visiting Uncle Mikey.

He of course had to bring it home.

The kids were all fascinated with it.

Especially when it pulled this little trick...

They were very concerned that it had been hurt until I explained how they are able to drop their tails off in an effort to escape it's prey. He was then let lose to go on his way.

When Dad's Do Hair

When Dad's do hair there are no garranties on how it will turn out...

...Even then I am sure you don't quite expect this.

Neither did she.

Cousins

Happy Birthday Matthew! / Baptism

Matthew had help celebrating his birthday this year as some of his cousins came to town for his baptism. It was so good to see everyone that came. We appreciate the effort it took to get here.

Matthew was baptized uncle Tim and Grandpa as witnesses.

Then he was confirmed by his Dad and Bishop Rock, Bother Harold Davis, Uncle Sean, Grandpa and Pop pop stood in the circle.

We are so proud of him and his decision to be baptized. He is such a great kid. He has such strength and such and attitude of "I can do it". We know he will continue to be a good example to his brothers.

Had to get a picture of the cousins.
