Happy Easter !!!!!!!!!

Well, another holiday that has come and gone! Seriously......where is the time going? I LOVE holidays and take pride in making it a fun one for the kids. I love being excited about it and sharing it with the kids! Holidays are a big deal at my house. So, that being said......HAPPY EASTER to all of you and I hope you had a great day remembering our Savior and being with the ones you love! I did! We had to wake up extra early because we have church at 9am so our kids were a little tired but as soon as they started looking for eggs their eyes got bigger and they went crazy! Paige wanted to eat candy all morning and Ty.....he would NOT let go of his football. The Easter bunny put a little Nerf football in his basket and he was giddy ALL morning and wouldn't let go of that ball! He was crazy happy about it and it was the cutest thing EVER! Paige just wanted to find the eggs and shake 'em! She liked the noise and thought it was cool! But her favorite part was putting on her new Easter dress from Nana! Boy......that girl is 110% GIRL! She thought it was so beautiful and loved her new shoes too! She also loved her new" fipbops" she got(flipflops). They are the cutest things on her cute feet! She's excited about that! Ty looked like a little hottie with his outfit from Nana too! The kids LOVE when Nana buys them things! All I have to say is SPOILED! But that's what Nana's do,right? Church was good. I sang in Relief Society and it went pretty good. Better then the last few times that's for sure! I have a new calling too.....I am the Personal Progress Leader in Young Womens!!!! Can I get a woowoo! I just LOVE and adore the youth of the church. They are a blast to be around. I am thrilled about that if you can't tell. We came home and I took Terry to the airport. He is helping a friend and his family move up here from Salt Lake, so Terry is driving one of their cars back. Then to end the night we had dinner at my sister-in-laws house with family and the missionaries. Always fun to do that! Now I am posting as my children are sleeping. It was a good Easter day and am so happy we have the gospel in our lives. I just LOVE the Savior.
So an update on my sis: She and my parents are out of the country getting some treatment done before she starts her chemo. They left Friday and won't be back for about 12 days. We can email whenever and only talk very little. I am going to try to post more often so that they can read about the kids and see some pics. Things are good there with them and we miss them and wish we could be there with her. I am hoping to see her as soon as she gets back from there so I can be there when she starts chemo. It has not been easy for me to grasp this whole thing knowing this is happening to my one and only younger sister. It is so tough. But this is just a BIG bump in the road for her and I really try to have a positive additude about 85% of the time.She's going to come out of this so great,all better and ready to take on the rest of her life!I want to say thanks so much to all of you who have put her name in the temples,prayed for her and fasted for her. You have no idea how wonderful it's been to know that people think of her....thanks from the bottom of my heart. I know some of you have known her since she was little so I know it's hard for you too! Paige NEVER forgets her " Aunt Tata" in her prayers. I hope you all had a beautiful day.
The slide show is a little long. There are a mixture of pictures along with Ty playing in his favorite place......the dishwasher, that kid LOVES it! By the way he has started to taking steps! That kid is going to walking in no time.
