Hoppy Easter

It's been a busy crazy week! I had 9 cavities filled and a root canal done on Monday and Tuesday (I swear I brush my teeth! I hadn't been to the dentist in 4 years... no insurance. It would have been cheaper to go to my check ups :) Lesson learned). Macey still has a double ear infection which entails visiting the Dr. office every 2 days. Why they don't go away I will never know. And a good friend was sick so we watched her little boys overnight on Wednesday! Needless to say, I took a nap this afternoon.

Weeks like this make me emotional and very grateful. In short I am grateful for my God and faith, my husband, and the choices that I am making at the moment in my life. Easter is such a beautiful holiday. I hope that you all sat down for a minute, chocolate in hand, and thought about the Resurrection. It's a big deal. Take a minute to think about it.

Our fun weekend! 4 years ago, while I was single at BYU, a coworker and I became quick friends. I spent Easter with her family at their grandma's that year. We were invited again this year and they spoiled Macey by including her in their family egg hunt. She was in heaven... She was quickly distracted by a bike though. Here is where she and Thomas spent the rest of the evening!
Thomas brought home this hand picked bouquet for me. He won't tell me where he got them, but he said that he got permission to pick them all... what a cute guy. They make my kitchen smell delicious. Nearly edible.
Baby shower cupcakes! I thought they turned out cute. I need a bigger platter/stand though.

Things are going great here. Thomas' last undergraduate classes are on Tuesday and graduation is NEXT week! I can't believe it! This life is all we've ever know. My Grandpa and Grandma Jenkins are flying out to celebrate with us. We can't wait!

Hoppy Easter
