Spring Hansen Reunion

My mom's cousin Patty is in town from Florida.  We haven't seen her in 20+ years.  So my mom threw a party...imagine that :)

We had a great time out at the old farm.  Grandma planned some really fun games.  The pie eating contest was Izzypop's favorite, I think.

Then we gathered round for Uncle Lavar's rendition of The Wide Mouthed Frog, something I haven't heard since I was a little kid.  It was great.

It was great seeing our relatives who we hardly ever see!  Have a safe trip home, Patty and Lavar!

Updated: Patty posted this picture on Facebook and since I didn't get one for myself, I have stolen it :).  This is a picture of my grandpa and his 5 siblings L to R: Darlene, Deloris, Blaine, Clive (Grandpa), Carl, and Lavar.  Pretty cool, huh?

Easter Portraits

Since Skeeto was turning two and Easter was coming up, I thought it was about time we did some new portraits. Thanks, as always Steph.

Easter Weekend

We had such a great Easter weekend. The weather was beautiful and we were able to see almost all of our favorite people! (Missed you Grandma Sherrie and Boston Bennions)

We started off Saturday with some serious egg dying.
After that, we went on a special trip to pick Izzypop up a sweet new ride.

Skeeto is even enjoying the pink and purple hand-me-down.

On Sunday morning, the kids woke up to a trail of candy that had been left by E.B. They searched the house and the backyard for their goodies. Somehow, we only got video and no stills. Amateurs.

Our first post-church stop was Grandma Sandi and Poppa Bennion's. We munched on some delicious lamb and/or Tizzy cupcakes.

Of course, the Easter Bunny had a few things waiting.

The next stop was a wonderful visit with Grandma June.

Then an early dinner and egg hunt at Grandma and Grandpa Orr's.

Some baseball with Uncle Layne and Grandma Orr.
We want a pitcher, not a belly itcher!At the next stop, Grandma and Poppa Yo-Yo's, we got down to business. Brian and I were able to secure a big win and the Great Devilled Egg Showdown of 2012. Wahoo! Here are the judges deliberating.

The kids even had some fun and got to go on a scavenger hunt and egg hunt.

We are so lucky to be around so much family. We love you all! Happy Easter!

My Heart Is Broken...

This is what happens when you say "No" to Izzypop.
