Easter Weekend

Well we had a wonderful Easter/Conference weekend. Nana and Papa Rick came for a quick weekend and we had so much fun. We picked them up at the airport and Carter was so excited to see them. We headed to the zoo to enjoy the nice weather and fun animals. We had been recommended a couple of times to go visit this Olive Press in Queen Creek, so we thought it would be fun to go there. It is a cute little place and had yummy food and great samples of olives, Olive oil and much more. We ate outside in the olive trees. It was just a nice afternoon. Pretty much the rest of the weekend we played, watched conference, ate yummy food and just enjoyed being together. It was so fun to watch Carter play with his Nana and Papa. He sure loves them. We were sad to see them go, but was thankful they were able to come for a bit.

Nana brought a fun ball launcher that they made together and then launched the balls. He loved it.



One thing that Carter was looking forward to was wrestling with Papa when he came to visit. Carter's signature move is his elbow pound.




Easter morning carter found his basket and enjoyed playing with his new toys. After the first session of conference we noticed that the Easter bunny had left some eggs, we he went and found them all. He has so much fun and wanted to find the Easter bunny too.



Before Nana and Papa left we headed to the Oasis park for a nice walk and flying Carter's new kite. It was warm, but nice to be out. They went home to the snow with nice sun kissed cheeks.






Thanks for coming to visit and for the fun weekend!

Hot mom in a swim suit! What is your due date? I'm Jun 16th but I always go late, so you will probably have yours way before I have mine. Are you planning on a trip to SL this summer? We will be there most of July and all of Aug. Let me know, it would be fun to get together!

What a fun Easter weekend. Carter's hair is getting long. He looks so grown up in these pictures. I am jealous of the warm nice weather at your house.
