Easter

Hi everyone! Sorry I didn't post this earlier. Almost all of us are really sick, which is not fun. But we're starting to feel somewhat better, which is good.

So Saturday we went to our friend's the Goodale's house to celebrate Easter. It was SO much fun! Out of the 5 families that were there, only one of them didn't have a sick family member, but we all decided that since Easter is the most important holiday for Christians, that it was important for us to get together whether we were sick or not. Now, whenever Mom is somewhere, you can almost always expect pictures to be taken, unless we're having so much fun that she forgets to get the camera out. :D But anyway, here are the pictures!

Our host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Goodale. :)

Mom kept trying to get a picture, but Wes wouldn't turn around. :D

Finally!!! :)

There were kids on the trampoline almost ALL afternoon

It was so cute. Nate walked around with his sunglasses on the whole time. :)

Daddy carving his super-special, deliciously-awesome turkey :)

I was crocheting (I know, I know. I'm addicted :D ) when Mrs. Fox and Mrs. MacDonald came over and we were talking about it. I'm really not sure what Seth was doing. :)

I believe that the kids were doing a Easter play, and Mr. MacDonald was reading from the Bible before it started. I don't know, though, because I was inside at the time.

Alivea in an angel costume. It's actually kinda' funny. Alivea has a sister named Angel. :D Normally she plays the angel, but she was sick and stayed home.

My little Adessah. :)

Now, while this was all happening outside, Wes, Azlan and I were inside. Mrs. Fox had brought jelly beans, and Wes and I were giving Azlan different ones and having him guess which ones they were. It was fun. :) Although, it probably wasn't such a good idea. See, those of you who know Azlan will understand this. Azlan is a VERY hyper, energetic, goofy person, and feeding him a bunch of jelly beans, which got him on a HUGE sugar high, probably wasn't very smart. I'll say why later. It was fun though. :D We didn't get any pictures of that.

Ok, so you know how I'm going to sing in a recital next month? Well, Wes and I went into the play room to try and practice, and this is why it was a bad idea to feed Azlan jelly beans. He came in with us, and it was a REALLY long time before we could actually do anything. He was being.... disruptive. Now, there were other reasons that kept us from actually practicing for awhile, mainly the fact that the original song is done in piano, and there isn't any guitar in it, so Wes had to try and convert the song into guitar. Then, I was singing it in a different key than it normally is, so he had to adjust that, and then find a rhythm that fit the song. I know, I know. I'm being kind of a pain. :) Although it probably didn't help much that he had only heard the song once.

Mrs. Addleman was helping the kids make crafts.

So while the kids were working on crafts, Wes, Azlan and I started playing croquet. It was so much fun. :)

Another example of Azlan when he's on a sugar high. :D

Hey, I think this is my new profile picture!

Little miss Nina :)

Ok, now there's tons more pictures, (yeah, seriously) but Blogger is starting to act up somewhat, and I'm having a hard time posting any more pictures. So, I'm going to sign off for now, and finish posting later today, ok?

Until later!
