Easter & General Conference

For Easter and General Conference weekend (April 2th - 4th), Joel and I went to Utah. We had the opportunity to stay with Joel's sister, Janine and her family (like always), see my sister, Amanda and her hubby, Jared (I didn't get pictures of them...boo!), went to lunch with Joel's best buds he grew up with, Brian & Kirby, along with Kirby's fiance, Jess who we love! Oh and we got to see Joel's cousin, Dave and his now wife, Emily. Needless to say, we had a great weekend full of fun!

Easter Sunday

Joel and I work up really early to get to the Conference Center in SLC b/c we had tickets to the morning session (thanks to my good friend, Lynne getting them for us). We left early thinking we'd hit traffic, have to park far away and get to our seats, with time to run to the restroom. Well... we had hit NO SNAGS! We parked about one block away and walked straight to our seats without any issues. So... we were there HOURS early! We had fun people watching.

As I'm sure you all remember, Conference (especially Sunday morning) was AMAZING!!! I guess it was a perfect way to celebrate Easter! Oh, side note: We sat in the section that is reserved for the hearing impaired. So, there were two TVs right in our faces and I was really distracted by them. It was b/c the sign language translators on the screen, rather just one of them, was soooo DRAMATIC!!! His facial expressions were priceless! I would do almost anything to get a shot of him for all of you to see. Oh well...

Here are some pictures from that weekend, mostly of our niece, Danica & our twin nephews, Reid & Gage.

Saturday morning: Joel & Danica

(Joel won't be happy I put this up here b/c he just woke up)

Reid - He's super cute w/ that adorable face & red hair

 

Gage - I'm pretty sure Nick is reprimanding him for something

Brian, Jess, Kirby, Joel & me @ Chipotle for lunch
