Well I wish I could flip all these posts with a twitch of my nose but I can't...Easter morning came sunny and clear...perfect weather to head to Tracy and Susan's home to spend the day watching Conference and enjoying being with some of the Collett's. My brother Guy and his family were also in Tucson spending some time in the sun with Tracy and Susan. We had a wonderful time. Susan has a way of making everything fun with everybody's contribution to the day it was great....watching conference and eating and egg hunt and eating and egg war and eating..and watching conference some more...a little walk up in the hills looking over Tucson with a little spontaneous devotional about the conference we just watched and Alexa wanted to sing For the beauty of the earth... the desert is starting to bloom and the setting sun...Very peaceful and...did I mention BEAUTIFUL!
Tracy and Guy hid eggs for all the kids. Ethan and Alexis were finding eggs that had smiley faces on them and they had motion sensors so as the breeze blew or people walked by they would chirp or say cute little things like "come and find me" "Happy Easter"...they were so cute, the talking eggs were a hit!
Tracy and Ethan looking for eggs
Susan and Alexis...I think the eggs also had little chicks inside...I didn't get in on all the details...I was taking pics =]
This is Alexis and angel...this dog is a sweet heart...I'm trying to catch a picture of Alexis blowing the bubbles and Angel trying to catch them with her mouth...notice the puddles all over...Angel gets hot and so she will go into their smaller pool and cool off for a bit and then she will come out for more play...she loves her people =]
This is Rambo...he is the Collett's 100 lb. puppy...he is a beautiful dog and very friendly and lovable....he likes to be in the middle of what ever is going on...Alexis was a little afraid of him...Ethan just loved him...I was afraid that Rambo would meet Ethan next to the pool and bump Ethan right into the pool....oh and he licked my feet..ew...but he is a wonderful dog and well into being well trained...very smart! Also if he doesn't look big to you..this is a 5 or 6 foot wall that he is looking over =]
this is most of the gang..the kids any way...ya a pretty wonderful kicked back beautiful day to be with family and Celebrate! Conference was wonderful as usual....I never seem to get enough out of it but the feelings are wonderful...the blessed knowledge of the Savior, his life and his love for us....His Attoning sacrifice, in our behalf. Kadie put it well in her last e-mail. "The best thing that the sunshine brought to me was General conference time and tranquil time to think and ponder on what the Savior has done for me. He truly is our light, Isn't He? Let's treat every day like Easter, deal?" It would be wonderful to carry the feeling of this Easter/Conference day with us every day. Im so Greatful for my Lord and Savior...his love and his blessings in my life...I feel so blessed with family and the Gospel to lift me and strengthen me.

Such wonderful pictures. I love Lexie's dress. Makes me wish I had a little girl. Ethan's shoes are sweet! Where did you get them? The baskets look fun and finding eggs look fun. Enjoy the sunshine!
