Easter

We had such a great Easter! Besides the fact that Logan kept us up for hours the night before while he SCREAMED for apparently no reason, we had a perfect day! The kids have been begging for a Wii for quite a while, and the Easter bunny was kind enough to bring one for them. I'm not sure who's had more fun with it so far - me or them!
In the afternoon, we went over to Heather and Graigg's house for a yummy dinner and egg hunt. Brynlie took this picture of me and Ryan. Isn't it shocking that Ryan wouldn't cooperate and had to pull a face??
After many attempts, Ryan finally kept his eyes open long enough for us to get a semi-decent picture! Our beautiful Brynlie, on a serious sugar high from a day of shoving candy in her mouth. I can't stop looking at this picture because I just love it so much. I could kiss those big cheeks all day long. And I love how Brevan was helping him and taking care of him. Logan got this bubble tube from Heather and Graigg during the "unbirthday party" where they gave all the kids presents. Leave it up to the Condiff's to get gifts for all of MY kids on THEIR child's birthday! The egg hunt started and I love the excitement in Logan's eyes! He kept yelling, "Where's egg?" I got it on video because I couldn't stop laughing at his cute voice!
Brevan was a great helper this year when he hid the eggs for the younger kids. What a great boy! I took this picture while Brenda and Brad were battling it out on air hockey.
My sweet egg-hunters on the prowl. They have grocery sacks because their silly mom forgot to bring their Easter baskets.
My sweet Lindserbell.
Logan and Jorja Simmons with their loot!
We had the egg hunt inside this year because it was rainy outside. The kids didn't seem to mind at all ;).
Brevan helped Logan search for the eggs he'd hidden. Logan kept finding balls in the pockets of the pool table and yelling, "egg!" His bag quickly became very heavy with all those balls!
I found one up high!
After the egg hunt, we celebrated Payne's 17th birthday. Payne is autistic and cracks us up with all the things he says and does. He was very excited to receive some new Disney movies!
The happy couple, Brad and Brenda! I think we should send Brad and Ryan to a modeling class so they can learn how to smile in a picture!
What a wonderful day and a perfect way to celebrate the Savior's atonement.

Hey,
Cute pictures. Your kids are so cute! So, yeah, we went through a really crapy year and actually ended up getting divorced. It was awful! We were divorced for 3 months and then decided to work things out. So then we got remarried. We are so happy and so grateful things worked out the way they did. We lost our house so we've just been renting for the last year and we'll be moving next week but we'll also just be renting for a couple years because along with some other crap going on we were taken advantage of on an investment and were forced into bankruptcy....so crazy is life huh.. but we are happy we are a family again and together we can get through it all!
