Some drove, some rode bikes and scooters or just walked to enjoy a beautiful spring day at the park
We had a picnic lunch in the park
and Ashlyn really liked feeding her grandpa 'french fries' while Chelsea got a few for herself.
Then...playing in the sand, climbing the rocks, flying kites, playing tag...just lots of fun.
So to cool off, what does this family usually do???? you guessed it...WATER!
Angie, Marv and I started our Sunday by attending 2nd Ward then on to 1st Ward where John was speaking in Sacrament Meeting of which he did an great job. We then went back to spend some time with Lisa & Dan's family for a little brunch of homemade sweet rolls and fruit. We opened up the special eggs to see what reminded us of Jesus.
Carnell, Angie, Marv and I enjoyed a lovely dinner, afternoon, and evening with John & Marrianne's family. After dinner we opened their special eggs to see what they had put in them that would remind them of Jesus. 
The girls really had fun with their cousin Angie
While grandpa played with Ashlyn and Christian on their swings
Then it was time for the Easter Egg Hunt
Ashlyn could not stop laughing at her Grandpa
Chelsea started her day by climbing in our bed in the morning to read books, then after Mel woke up we had breakfast and played games, games, and more games! Later Carnell and I had fun visiting the dentist, yuk! Helped him around his home, taxes, bills, cleaning...and then enjoyed a Subway for lunch.
When Spencer got home from school, Grandpa took them outside to play some baseball....even our little princess enjoyed trying to catch the ball. Later headed back to our apt, shopping, laundry, and prepare for another week.
And our little Ashley and her parents spent the day on an airplane to visit family....sun & snow!
Sunday evening we met at John & Marrianne's house for a delicious "Mexican Feast", to celebrate the California March Birthdays: Carnell 88, Madison 9, and Ashlyn 2. 
Madison got to choose the menu of taco/burrito bar. And for dessert we had Apricot Pie with ice cream....hmmmm delicious!
After dinner Madison, Brooke, and Melanie played "Princess U-no" with me. Very nice evening.

We went with some of our friends here at the apartment, for dinner and a movie. We just wanted a clean, fun, crazy movie that would make us laugh...and this did. Lots of slap stick humor with a good moral and also brought back some memories of taken our own children to college. [Thanks Ben and Ruth for the AMC tickets]
If you think you know who man's best friend is, try locking your wife and your dog in the trunk of your car; wait two hours - then open it. Guess who is happiest to see you.
For Nate's Cub Scout Blue and Gold Dinner, the boys were asked to make a cake with their Dads. The theme was "Chinese New Year" [the year of the dragon], so this was where they started. They also decided to make it a 3D cake. Great job Nate & Matt!
Rachel is sound asleep and Jordyn is blowing kisses.
[From Matt] We'll we made it home. Rachal and Jordyn can't seem to get enough lovin' from their brother and sisters. Or maybe brother and sisters can't get enough lovin' from Rachel and Jordyn. Either way everyone is sitting in a circle, passing the girls around and getting lots of hugs and kisses.
Now what?????
