Planting our box garden in the backyard. Richard is planting a cantaloupe plant. Everything is an experiment. We will do our best to water and weed, but we'll see what we get. Garrett is watering onions, and we also planted a red bell pepper plant. We plan to plant carrots, beets, pumpkins, and flowers from seeds and some tomato plants later this month. It'll be fun to see what grows. ;)

Spencer likes lying under that hall and kitchen rugs...silly little guy.

This is Easter morning; the boys showing off their huge chocolate bunnies from my Mom. She mailed them because she really wanted them to have a huge hollow chocolate bunny. Shouldn't every little kid have one? :) And I found edible grass at Rite-Aid, oh, uh, I mean the Easter Bunny brought edible grass this year, and here is Richard pretending to be a cow.

One of our local high schools, together with the Orem fitness center and a whole bunch of sponsors got together to make a community Easter egg hunt. We'd never been to one before, so we braved it this year. It was well organized and executed. We were way back in line and I was wondering how they were going to make it fair. Everyone had to stand around the perimeter of the high school track, then they blew a whistle and everyone ran for the eggs and loose candy. It was fun, but very cold. Ben took Spencer to the 'baby' egg hunt where some parents were just holding their toddlers and picking up the eggs themselves. Cheaters I say, cheaters! It was much more fun to watch the little babies toddle around and pick up the eggs themselves! Ben stood guard over ONE egg until Spencer decided to pick it up. That's right parents, ONE egg- it's about the kids, not the prizes or who gets the most eggs! We came home with some awesome bags that were handed out free and I think 6 eggs among our 3 boys. We had fun. That's what counts.
