Happy Easter

We have really been enjoying life lately. Here is some of what we have been doing.




Corbin emptied all the toys out of this container and crawled inside saying, "I'm going down to the crawl space! See ya!" (we have a crawl space under our house for storage).



I found Corbin like this the other day, while I was doing some laundry. He is such a character.

Coloring Easter eggs. Corbin loved it!


We went to the park with our friends Kylee, Russ and Caden. Growing up, Clark would get a new kite each Easter, so we decided to go ahead and buy Corbin a spiderman kite. And it was a perfectly blustery day for kite flying. We actually had a hard time getting it to stay up in the air at first, because of all the strong gusts of wind. But I win the prize, because I'm the one that got it to stay up. We also had a little Easter egg hunt for the boys. Corbin and Caden kept racing to get one egg, and when they would sprint to get that one, at least 3 would fall out of each of their baskets, so they would then turn around and find even more eggs on the ground! It was really funny to watch, and it allowed the egg hunt to last longer than I thought it would.





We also watched General Conference that day (which was wonderful, I can't wait to read the talks when the Ensign comes out. It's hard to listen when you have a 2 year old clamoring for attention.) During one part, Corbin was on the floor playing, when all of the sudden he heard Elder Holland say the word stupidity. He immediately jumped up and gasped, "He said that naughty word! The prophet said the naughty word!" Clark and I had a really hard time hiding the laughter. Then I had to do some quick thinking and explain that Elder Holland was talking about some really naughty people, and that's why he used a naughty word. Pretty funny.

We made pear-apple pie for our dessert on Easter. We love this recipe. It is definitely a family favorite. Corbin loves helping in the kitchen.


Easter morning. Corbin went straight for the candy, and then had a major sugar crash a few hours later.
