Easter weekend!!!



This has been a great first Easter together!!! I enjoyed being just the two of us without any family. We also decided that we would not answer our phones all weekend long, so our phone didn't come with us any where, it was so nice :D But it was just fun to be able to go to conference go home and relax then go back, or just sit in our own house and listen to it, it was nice not having to worry about traveling or pleasing other people, just ourselves:D We also got a lot done this weekend, more then I thought we would.

So my dear husband has been working very hard on his big boy toy, our car! between sessions and after sessions he worked on putting all the pretty LED on the car, around the car, in the car, just everywhere, he is very excited about this, he has also painted the break calipers, engine cover blue, and put blue tubing around the wires in the engine area.




Sorry it was so bright out when i took these photos, but he is every excited about his big boy toy and loves working on it, and it makes him happy, so i guess what is all that matters :D

I even got my garden planted, it is not very big but at least i am trying :D



I have planted a tomato, two squash, and a cucumber plant!! Here to hoping they grow :D

This weekend I also cooked my very first ham!!! David wanted a honey brown sugar ham, so that is what i made him, he said it was pretty good for my first time, and was just grateful I did it. But it was fun to make an Easter dinner even if it was just for the two of us, he is excited to eat ham sandwiches for left overs, how can you tell I don't make ham ever :D





I also did a Easter egg hunt for David, lol I know I am lame!! I thought it would be fun even though we don't have kids. I think I had more fun putting everything together then David did find them all :D I think he was happy to have lots of candy any ways. Here is all the stuff he got, the eggs have candy in them too!



Here is him searching for his Easter stuff.



Today I also had the opportunity to hang out with one of my friends and make freezer jam, it was fun to hang out with her today, since we have not hung out in a long time!! Thanks Jaime for inviting me over to make some yummy strawberry jam :D



Well David and I were in Utah last month we stopped by the family history centre and asked for copies of my GG Simmons and Grandma Tyssen's patriarchal blessings I got them in the mail last weeks and it was so up lifting to read them and to see the blessing enfold over there lives either good or bad, it really helped my testimony grow!! I hope that my children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren will read mine and feel that the same feelings as I did and to help their testimonies grown as I had reading their blessing.

Anyways I hope you all had a great Easter weekend, and I am also sorry this blog entry is so long. But April has started off Great and I am sure it will continue to get great as the month continues:D
