My little gardener

We finally decided to work a little on a garden in the back yard. Andrew was right in the middle of helping with the work. He loves to be "outs". I love that he wants to be right with us all of the time and loves to be active and outdoors.

Easter Fun

The Easter Bunny brought Andrew a fun basket this year! He got eggs with candy in them, a Berentstein Bears DVD, bubbles, and his own little drill. He loved it all, but especially the drill!

I worked the night shift leading into Easter Sunday, but I still wanted to go to church to be reminded of the real reason for the Easter Holiday. We had a wonderful musical sacrament meeting and it was nice to be at church despite the lack of sleep. After church we went over to granny and grandpas house for other fun activities including the egg toss from the roof and tossing Andrew in the towel.

Coloring Easter Eggs

We had a fun time coloring Easter Eggs this year. Andrew wanted to throw them all down and crack them before we dyed them, but we managed to save a few to color. He didn't like that he dyed his hands and wanted them clean as soon as we were done. Aunt Tawny was staying the night with us so she got to share in the fun!
