It has been a beautiful weekend here in Salt Lake. We have had so little snow in the valley compared to last year. The fruit trees are in bloom and here is a shot from our doorstep.
It did not feel exactly like Easter As General Conference preceded it this year. The weather was wonderful and Spring is in the air. General Conference was great as well.
Rebecca and her family came to stay on Thursday night. On Friday, there was this gathering of many grandchildren for an Easter Egg coloring session. Dozens of egs were colored and here they are taking a lunch break.
Saturday, we all gathered at Mike and Rayanne's house for their yearly Easter Egg hunt celebration. They put a great effort into this event preparing a large brunch that is always so yummy. Rayanne baked 48 New York style Bagels for the occasion and all had a great time.
We had a visit from Kelsey L. and her husband from Indiana. Kelsey was another one of our great sister missionaries and we had the most pleasant birthday lunch.
Warlier in the week, we had a visit from Bequis C. who was visiting from Boston and she brought her friend, Tom F. It turned out that was her birthday so we had a little birthday dinner complete with Mom's famous cake as the birthday cake. We had a mini FHE and it was great to see her again and meet Tom.
There are about 23 birthdays in April so it is a busy month. I leave for Spokane this afternoon for another eye injection up at Rob's clinic in Spokane, It will be fun to see Rob and Eva, Jeff and Tammy and all the kids again.
We love you all,
Dad

It's an honor to be included on your blog! We loved spending part of your birthday with you, and Dave is still talking about the steaks you served for lunch.
