Easter Sunday

On Easter sunday morning when Emily got out of the bath she had a surprize waiting for her!The easter bunny came and brought her eggs that had some flavored marshmellows in them! Boy did she love them!! She shared lots of them with her daddy. :)









It took her a minuet to figure out what the eggs were and that there was something in them.
























On Easter Michael and I had to speak in church. It's kind of a funny story how this all came about. Let me tell you... So when we were watching conference i was talking to my dad and asking him how these people can get up and speak to thousands of people and they don't even seem nervous. He said that they probably were nervous, but the more you do it the less scared you become. Michael said that it's cause it is dark and they can't see anyone in the audience. So i went on to say that I get sooo freaked out when i have to speak in front of people and thank goodness that I haven't had to speak in church for almost a year and a half. Then Michael joked that he should call the bishop and tell him that we need to speak.
Well, we went on to watch the rest of confrence and that was that. The next monday (the 6th) i got a phone call and when i answered it, it was the first councelor in the bishopric. He asked me if Michael was home and if he could come and visit us for a minute. Right then i knew i was hosed!! I told him that he could and the second i got off the phone, i ran downstairs and told Michael that he jinxed us and that we were probably speaking in church... sure enough, that is what he wanted!! It's kind of funny how things happen, ya know?

Emily is 1!!!


Wow!! I have a 1 year old!! it's hard to think that it has been that long. We had a fun little birthday party. We did a BBQ and then we sang Happy Birthday to Emily. She wasn't so sure about it all.










After we sang i just let her dive into her cake. At first she didn't really like that she had sticky stuff on her hands, but...


she did like the taste of the frosting!!!



Then she found that there was cake too and likes it as well




Grandma Scoville gave her 2 outfits and some books.





She was showing us all of the things that she got.. she would hold one thing up and then grab another and hold it up.




And her Aunt Christine gave her a little car that she can sit on and drive around. She loooooves it. If you press the flower on the front it sings this little fairy song and she will just sit and press that button over and over and over!! We have only had the toy for one day and i am sooo ready to rip the batteries out so that i don't have to hear that song any more!!






She had had her first cousin "fight" over this toy... and lost!! it was a big hit with all of the kids.








When she is not on top of it, she is pushing it around all over the house and if she gets into a corner and can't move she just starts screaming cause she is mad that it won't move. In this picture she had already gotten mad and then she was trying to lift it up and move it.
what a crazy kid!!
