Sunday Smiles on Saturday

Dear Blog friends

We have had special smiles this week.

I want to share them with you today

since tomorrow we will be busy with Easter Celebration,

family and worship.

Last week we packed up our bags and


we got our son-in-law, Ernie to drive us to the airport.
I wonder if he is smiling because he is happy for us....
...or because he is glad we are leaving???

Ahhh...Ernie loves us.... he is just happy for us.... don't you think???

After a long day of sitting on a plane

and flying across the country

we finally arrived at our son's home

where we were greeted by this sign

and sweet kids. We were all full of smiles.
...
One day Grampy and I went to school to have lunch with the girls.

We were as excited as they were to spend this time at school with them.

Smile, smile smile

Meanwhile at home we were having fun at all kinds of activities

We had exciting basketball games...

That were enjoyed by all....

...big and small.
...

Our little slugger, Davey, starred in...

a thrilling baseball game played in the front yard.

Gracie barely made it to base on this hit.

and all ran in to score.,,,even Grampy.

What fun!

There was play time at the park.

and bike riding adventures.

You should see little Davey go on his two wheeler.
Nothing slows that boy down.
This week he rode 3 miles with his daddy who has always loved biking.
Last year he rode 5 miles when he still had the training wheels on.

Yesterday we took a day trip to Kirtland.

It is a town rich in Mormon pioneer history.
We enjoyed going through all the tourist sites.

These sister missionaries were our tour guides.
They have such a sweet spirit and did a great job.

I will tell you all about it on a later post.

...
I must run now.

I just found out that the Easter Bunny has been here.
He has always come to our house on Saturday since he knows

that we like to have our Easter Bunny fun on Saturday

and celebrate the spiritual side of Easter on Sunday.

I've heard that the bunny has hidden the 4 baskets somewhere in the house and we will have to follow the clues and go on a treasure hunt to find them.
He also hid a lot of eggs outside we need to find.

We need to do that before it is time to start watching our

churches general conference

So...
Happy Easter

I will be back soon

Hugs, Lura
