April 2010

April was a fun and busy month. General Conference, Easter, Brannon's trip to LA and his graduation from BYU.

Elle has learned to "tuller"aka color--look at her intense concentration...genius at work!


We went to Stonebridge Ranch Easter Celebration for the kids. Elle saw the Easter Bunny - she thought he was interesting and was not afraid at all. She rode the train with mom and dad. She saw goats, pigs, chicks and ducks. I don't think she will be a veternarian...she didn't want to touch the animals.


Brannon and his cousins, Alex and Lewis were able to go to SLC for General Conference....so jealous!

We celebrated Easter at Aubrianne and Rusty's house. The missionaries from church were able to join us for a yummy dinner. Of course hunting Easter eggs was included...Elle caught on quickly and was so excited to find the eggs, fill her basket and show us her bounty. (we let cousins and her buddy William have the candy out of the eggs...that took some great sneaky moves by Aunt Kate!

Kate and her FHE buddies make sure to keep WalMart interesting on Monday night. Tyla came home to celebrate her 20th birthday with her G-town friends.

April Book Club was a choice of any novel by Jodi Picoult. I chose her newest book called House Rules. I love her work because it makes me think about the difficultly of situations and living in someone else’s shoes. House Rules was a great read about the challenge of having an autistic child and being a single mom. Her son becomes entangled in the legal system and can’t communicate well enough to help himself. It keeps you guessing until the end!
