Easter

This past week Casey and i were on spring break from school. We got to celebrate my Mom's birthday on Wednesday (Love you to pieces Mom!). On Thursday we headed up to Idaho or Hi-ho as Kendal calls it for the rest of the weekend. Thursday Afternoon and Friday were spent with Casey's parents. The rest of the family came Friday night and Saturday. We always enjoy spending time with the family, and it seems like we don't get to see each other as often anymore; so when we're all together it makes it more special. Putting six kids under 2 1/2 years old together in one house with a cluster of adults makes for one crazy / fun family time. Kendal, David, and Bryker are all on the go making messes, and being little toddlers. Hunter, Jaxson, and Rebecca though not as mobile can make noise just as much noise and fun as the older three. There were a few comments on how soon all of the kids will be mobile and going around, but we can't forget that we are an ever expanding family adding our little guy to the family this summer.
On Saturday we joined the extended Webb family for an Easter lunch and candy hunt for the kids. If we think the Kenny /Cheryl family has changed we just have to look at the family as a whole to know we're not the only ones. People kept saying how we are full on into the next generation, a large portion of the grandkids are married and have started families of their own. It's always nice to see everyone and catch up on the lives of the family. While at the party Kendal got bumped into then hit with a ball so she was upset. I took her in for some quiet time and she fell asleep within minutes (good thing because it was well past her nap time; bad thing because the Easter hunt was in ten min.) Casey and i had to shake and wiggle her for a few minutes to get our sleeping beauty to come out of her sleepy coma, thankfully she perked up as soon as she realized our rude awakening was so she could go get candy. We spent the rest of Saturday enjoying more family time.
Kendal enjoyed Sunday, she finally got her basket of goodies, and was sneaking candy from it and everywhere else for the rest of the day. We went to church with the family (minus Brett, Vanessa, and their two kids). Casey's dad gave a wonderful talk in sacrament. We enjoyed a Easter feast and more time with the kids.

Glad you guys are loving spring. It is great to get together with Family. Sounds like you guys had a great Easter. p.s. your little Kendall is super adorable.

I was actually wondering if the slide show caused that!;) Cute pics and fun EASTER happenings. Do you have a name for your baby boy? So excited for you and your upcoming bundle of love to join the family! :) Kendal will be such a great big sister!:)

P.s I had a GREAT 2 year old too. I have always thought Kendal's personality reminds me a lot of Brynlee's, so when she is 3, she might not be as bad as Brynlee is. She is still such a sweet girl, but her age is just HARD. You will see, its hard and good all at once. Some days are better than others. BUT I think we will find that with any other age.

I figured it out - If you click on Easter2012 below the slide show it will take you to another page where the pictures can be fully viewed.

-Thanks for the comments Janaca and Janalee. - We're thinking of naming our little man Pete (Peter).
