early visitor

This morning was very eggsiting-

besides being conference Sunday..

We had a visitor!!

YEs... The Easter Bunny was here!

In preparation for conference we got up & made a big breakfast.
Biscuits & gravy, eggs & sausage... Nothing gets teens out of bed for conference like a good breakfast. While eating, Trent went into the office to get something & What!!?
EAster baskets full of goodies- wow.

(don't you love that early morning hair do?)
Why would the EAster Bunny come a week early?
Maybe because we are going on a much planned out, very anticipated, spring break
VAcaTION!!
(MORE ON THAT TO COME) After the first talk we got out the eggs.
I LOVe dying eggs- love it.

here's Jack's BYU blue egg.

A yearly tradition.

Even dad likes dying eggs.

Don't look too closely at all the sewing supplies out in the kitchen... still working on the quilts, but in the kitchen so that I could listen to conference. I'm thinking now- even though I have made tons of progress- I will have to finish them when we get back from our trip.

Our other traditional traditional egg the "dinosaur egg"Sunday morning session of conference turned out to be my favorite.

Actually they were all so good, but Elder Holland's talk

was over the top inspiring & amazing to me.

I am really looking forward to the conference Ensign & wish I had it in time for our long, long awaited airplane ride.

yes we are going on a BIG vacation!

I am beyond excited.

I can't sleep, I'm having my typical over planning issues!

Because WE are going - all of us to my favorite city-

(WEll not all of us we have a dog/house sitter coming)

AFter learning that we can't go pick up the missionary in Chile, (we can... but his mission president says we cannot see him until his last day- we don't want to walk around Chile not knowing any spanish- by ourselves- pick him up then leave immediately...?)We decided to cash in all of our frequent flier & hotel points & take off.

Do you know what my favorite city is?

(it's Brett's too)

It's...

NEW YORK, NEW YORK.

so soon, this week, I will be blogging the big apple!

stay
