Easter Party

This year, our rose bushes (as ugly as they are) have provided us with an abundance of flowers!  Which means that I have been able to keep the house beautified with fresh flowers.

 Easter was busy this year.  We went to two Easter parties the weekend before Easter and had two Easter celebrations the Easter weekend as well.  The pictures below were taken at my girlfriend, Megan's, house.  She and her husband have such a fun yard... complete with an entire petting zoo and pony rides.  The property is big and made Easter hunting fun for the kids.  Thank you, Megan and Sam, for such a nice time!

Megan's daughter is Sarah's age.  

I love my friend!

Temple Choir's Easter Program

Last night we went to Oakland to watch Uncle Robert perform in the Easter program at the temple.  Normally, Chris and I attend alone (since young children tend not to sit very long) but this time, we decided to take James with us.  He  did remarkably well and made this mama proud!  All three of us enjoyed the beautiful music and especially enjoyed listening to Uncle Robert sing... his voice never sounded so heavenly!  Out of all the people that audition to participate in the Temple Choir, Uncle Robert was chosen to be a soloist, singing the part of the Disciple John.  He was wonderful and made us all wish we could sing a solo like that without squeaking or totally embarrassing ourselves.  James was even singing "hallelujah" in the car afterwards on the way home.

How bad is dad?

Today, the song "Bad" by Michael Jackson was on.  Come on, sing it in your mind.... "you know I'm bad, I'm bad, you know it...."

Sarah thinks that the song says "my dad" instead of "I'm bad".  It was positively hilarious to hear her singing around the house,  "my dad, my dad".   :)
