Easter & Happy Birthday to Scott.

Easter landed on Scott's birthday this year.  I don't think that has happened in the almost 9 years Scott and I have been married.  I'm so happy that he was able to get the whole day off and enjoy it with us.  
The Easter bunny made its way to our house, although Brielle is sure that I am the Easter bunny! 
I have never been completely sold on the idea of the Easter bunny anyway, so I didn't try to convince her otherwise. 
Braden was oblivious to the comment, so I guess he'll believe until he figures it out...
...and Brooke has quite a few years to go until she figures it out...


Despite, my skepticism of the Easter bunny, it is a fun tradition and the kids enjoy it and Scott and I enjoy making these holidays a fun memory for them.  



Brooke was in heaven with all the candy, she went to town! 
That little girl has a sweet tooth! 


I wanted to get a good picture with all 3 children and this is what I got...no cooperation from the Brookie!!! She was done even before we began taking the pictures! 


After Brookie was done, Brielle and Braden were nice enough to pose for me.  



We had such a nice Easter program at Church that day with musical numbers and narrators.  It was so beautiful and just the perfect way to bring us back to the real reason to celebrating Easter.  
Easter is one of my favorite holidays and I love that we can talk about our Savior's resurrection to our children and what that means to us. I'm grateful that we have that knowledge. 

After our meetings we celebrated Scott's birthday.  We had some family over and had a yummy dinner and some cupcakes afterward.  My husband is 32 years old! It's crazy to think about, but it is true.  Time flies and it seems like the older you get the faster time goes.  We are so grateful to have this wonderful man in our lives.  He just makes me complete and makes my life happy.   No one makes me laugh like he does.  He is a good father to my children and I'm grateful that they get to have him to make them laugh and rough house with them and also discipline them and love them.  He works hard for our family and puts 110% effort in everything he does.  He loves God and is a humble, compassionate man.  He brings balance to my life, calms me when I get anxious, loves me and accepts me for who I am.  
I'm so glad that we get to share our lives together.  
Happy Birthday 32nd birthday to my good husband! 
You are our rock star and we love you!
...so glad you were born!  


ha ha! Brielle cracks me up in this picture! They just can't wait for half a second to take a picture! 


We finalized our Easter and Scott's birthday with some egg dying.  
It is such a fun tradition and our family loves it. 


We had an enjoyable day and there's nothing like being able to spend this life with the people you love!
