Mother's Day

This year Mother's Day was very nice. Chad and the kids got me a gift certificate to get an one hour massage, and we went out for a nice family dinner. Mother's Day morning we went to brunch with my sister and parents to Zink. The food was really really good. Since Chad and Kristi were a little under the weather - we will be celebrating Mother's Day with Sherrie in the near future. Here are the pictures from our brunch with my mom, dad and sister.

Easter

Here are some pictures and a video that were taken this past weekend. Easter was great this year. First, the kids loved decorating the Easter eggs. Kristi was a very good artist and Brandon loved to throw the eggs and hear the crack of their shells. In the morning, we had an Easter egg hunt which didn't last long at all. Next year we will have to hide them a little better. Then the kids found the present that the Easter bunny left them. Brandon got a workhorse with play screws, nails, hammer and screwdriver. Kristi got a Barbie that sings while you do her hair. After that we went to brunch with Grandma Sherrie, Uncle Shaun, Aurora and Cousin Jordin. Grandma Sherrie got them a bunch of candy and little toys. After hanging out with with everyone, Grandma and Papa took Kristi to see Monsters VS Aliens. Kristi loved watching the movie and sharing a coke and popcorn with them. After the movie was over, we had Easter dinner at our house with Grandma, Papa and Aunt Tara. For Easter presents, Grandma and Papa got Brandon a wood train block set and Kristi her first set of roller skates. It is always a challenge to get her to take the off.
