Good Old Pals

Happy 60th Birthday Daddy!
So many incredible memories of you...driving me to school singing cheers, taking me on daddy daughter dates, calling me your "favorite" daughter (I'm the only one), calmly listening to my frustrations, teaching me how to give a talk, adoring all my boys, writing me poems for lots of occasions, walking really fast with me, visiting often, playing piano duets with me, taking us on wonderful vacations, supporting all my decisions, cooking me oatmeal and cornbread, laughing and crying with me, being positive, setting and following through with countless goals, treating me like a princess, and so much more...
I love you Daddy~

Easter

Thank heavens for a wonderful Daddy!
Still being on west coast time, I was not ready to go crazy with Easter stuff. However, Jeff boiled the eggs and continued the boy tradition of decorating and eating eggs.
We made resurrection rolls - yum!

Nick shared his beautiful Easter book
that Sister Bentley made for him in primary.

San Diego

LeAnn's family met for a fabulous vacation/Grandpa's Birthday in San Diego. We stayed in a house across the street from the beach. Everyone came - Mom, Dad, 4 kids & spouses, and 13 grandkids. Grandpa & Grandma hooked us all up with tickets to lots of fun places. It was wonderful to be all together.
Thank you for an incredible spring break!
A "national monument" - Brandon was "thrilled" that we found a merit badge requirement on vacation:) Acutally, he took lots of pictures and loved it.
