ZOO VOLUNTEERS, WOMEN'S BROADCAST, PROM FOR LOLLIPOP AND EASTER!!!!

Key Lime Pie - Lollipop - Kotten Kandy
Happy Easter Weekend!  I want to share with the world my testimony - that Jesus Christ lives!  I'm grateful for His sacrifice!  I'm grateful for his willingness to lie down His life so that we ALL might live again!  I love this special holiday!
Beautiful Key Lime Pie
Gorgeous Lollipop
Exquisite Kotten Kandy
I love it also because I love any excuse to celebrate with my beautiful family...  These three girls looked especially pretty in their matching Easter skirts!
This weekend has been a crazy, busy one.  But it has been really fun!  It started with the party on Friday night.  The kids had so much fun!  They are still talking about it!
Saturday  morning, Lollipop, Kotten Kandy and Apple Jacks went to the Zoo to volunteer for the Easter celebration.  They ran a booth where the kids got to run through an obstacle course with an egg on their head.  They had a lot of fun!

Sisters!
Saturday night, Lollipop went to her high school Prom.  She had a great time with her friends... and looked gorgeous!  The excitement came at the end of the night when the police were pulling over random people to check for alcohol.  Of course, Lollipop and her friends were good girls!  But it was exciting non-the-less.  Lollipop wished she had enough courage to ask for a selfie with the police officer... but she chickened out.
While Lollipop was dancing, Key Lime Pie, Kotten Kandy and I joined Amy, Marmalade, Sheila and Rice Krispie Treat for the General Women's Broadcast live from Salt Lake City.  It was AWESOME!  We started the evening at the local Chinese buffet.  It was delicious!  And then we went to the Church to watch the program with other women in our ward.  The treats were yummy!  And the messages that were shared were inspired!  I love that my daughters love General Conference!  And this special meeting for women is one of our favorites to kick off the special event that happens twice a year!  Yea, for General Conference!  Yea, for inspired leaders!  Yea, for latter-day prophets!

Sweets for the already Sweet!
I REALLY LOVE these girls!!!!
Easter is always fun to celebrate too.  Check out the girls' Easter baskets:
They were especially excited about their books.  The Easter Bunny spent a lot of time making sure she got the "perfect" book for each member of the family!  I think she succeeded....
Key Lime Pie has been wanting to read Lindsey Stirling's autobiography!
She was thrilled to get this book!
I've now learned useless facts about about Lindsey's biggest fan, Phelba and that Lindsey has a weird reading disorder called cross dominance.
Lollipop's book is called "Flight."
She is also shouting out facts about airplanes, including that there are over 4 million moving parts on an airplane.  Who knew?  She is overjoyed to be reading about such a soaring subject....
Kotten Kandy had already read both of her classic novels.  But she loves learning more about them.  The Giver and Fahrenheit 451 are two of her favorite books... and now she owns them.

  2. A sweet Easter Photo-Essay! You do such a good job of keeping everyone informed and caught up on 'living' in Kentucky...
    I, too, like your skirts. Did you guys make them? Scott, have you started Lincoln Hypothesis yet? Grandpa and I thought it was an excellent book, and we're anxious to see what you think. Hopper Easty to you, too, Sundy Lea! Mom/Mil
