The Weekend

I really enjoyed this weekend. We didn't have much going on, so it was nice to just kinda do stuff as it happened. Friday night was the usual jam session for Skyler. He decided to sport this look for Friday and Saturday. I don't particularly enjoy facial hair on Skyler unless it is a full beard, so I was definitely thrilled when he finally shaved this monstrosity off Saturday night.
This past week Skyler has been working on putting up the brick in our house. It looks awesome. I can't wait for it to be finished. Hopefully we will be having our housewarming party sometime next month....we are looking at April 19, but nothing definite yet.

Today was Easter. I realized that the fun part of Easter is only fun when you are a kid or have kids (I am/have neither of those things). As a kid, it was fun to wake up early in the morning and dominate in the family Easter egg hunt. The eggs were usually filled with candy, and even though I would get the most eggs, we had to divvy out the candy evenly. I hated that. My favorites are the SweetTart eggs or the Robin eggs.

The Easter bunny still came to our house, but I had to make sure so he brought something for both of us. I got Skyler a few gifts and myself some CDs. I tried to stray from buying a ton of candy because last year I ended up just throwing it all away. Instead I bought Power bars, Sport Beans, and other healthy things.

We spent Easter dinner at Skyler's dad's house. My family is in Utah (except for my dad who stayed home to work), and I am super jealous that they all get to spend time with my nephew. Hopefully I will get to see him soon.

We all need to get together again soon! Bryce and I are done traveling for awile. Seems like we've been everywhere but nowhere lately. We would LOVE to spend an FHE with you guys. We'll have to plan it soon. Tell skyler we love the facial hair. I'm interested to see what he looks like with a full beard. Bryce just shaved a little mexi-stach that he sported for a bit....gross.

We miss you guys!! Skyler facial hair was pretty nasty, but sooo Skyler at the same time. LOL

Sounds like your Easter was a success. You always make holidays fun. Skyler is lucky to have you as his wifey...

Speaking of having fun....It's all set...We are planning our next trip to Cali! We are coming the week after labor day. Sept 6-13. Mark your calendars. We'll have two kids by then. Alyssa who will be nearly 3 and little _________(to be named) who will be 4 months old.

We are planning to go to Disneyland for a few days. Hope you will consider joining us for at least an evening. Also planning on going to an Angel's game while we're in town. Then of course the beach. We're hoping to see Skylers mad wave skills this time.

Thanks for your input which helped us decide when to come. We also got a super cheap flight so we don't have to drive! Yeah!

By the way...Skyler, your facial hair very....Chester. Not so crescent fresh.

Skyler you look like a French painter! ahahahahah. Well Diego missed meeting you guys but I think he liked Holly and Cam. Holly was sooo excited to hold him. It was cute. Diego is cute and fattening up but he's also getting fussier! But I still love him!
