Easter Weekend


We had quite a busy weekend, so we had to create a slideshow of pictures to highlight most of it.

On Saturday, we went to Salt Lake to meet my sister Megan, her boyfriend Mike, my sister Jessica, and brother-in-law Matt for lunch at Buca di Beppo to celebrate Jessica's birthday which was actually Sunday. The food was delicious despite the poor service, and Nate finally got to eat the gnocchi he's been craving for weeks. After lunch we headed to Megan's apartment to eat Jessica's birthday pie from Coldstone and dye Easter eggs. Then Megan came back to Roy with us to spend the night and watch Bridget while we attended the adult session of our stake conference. I was very nervous about how Bridget would be since she's always fussy in the evenings and doesn't like anyone but me to put her to sleep. She did cry for about 30 minutes until she fell asleep. Thanks Megan for being such a great aunt and helping out! Nate and I both agreed that it was the best stake conference we'd ever attended. We were able to hear from Elder Jeffrey R. Holland and Elder Donald J. Keyes. I could go on and on about what they talked about, but if you really want to know, you'll just have to ask me.

On Sunday, we all attended the general session of stake conference where we were able to hear from Elder Holland and Elder Keyes again. After church, we went home to make Jessica's birthday cake before Nate, Bridget, and I had to rush off to Nate's family's Easter get-together. From there we went to my Aunt Jennine's house to gather with my extended family for birthday cake and homemade ice cream to celebrate Jessica's birthday again.

Sounds like a fun weekend. Bridget looks so cute in all these pictures. Buca is a pretty good place to eat. I've only been there once, and it was mighty delicious!

You should have taken some pictures of Bridget at Nate's family gathering. Maybe one with her favorite cousin. *hint hint* lol just kidding those are all totally cute pictures though.
