Mexico Surf Trip



I don't want to give the false impression that I'm a surfer. In fact, I'm confident that what I do resembles the thrashing of an injured sea lion more than anything you might normally associate with surfing. That said, I've been enjoying getting out with some of the guys in the ward. Our big goal was to make a trip down to Mexico for a little surfing and a lot of relaxing. Well we finally did it and, it was awesome. Lots of cheap food, a fantastic beach front villa and plenty of empty surf spots. I had a great time and came back well rested. I can't thank my wife enough for handling the home front so that I could get away for a couple of days. You are the best, Melissa!

Easter Surprise



Sorry that I am posting a million photos here- we just had such a nice time and it was so fun to see everyone over the Easter weekend. Ian and I actually got to listen to some Conference talks (even if others didn't... sorry!) and it was nice to use Jesse's awesome Kohl's discount, get Grace and Emily's help with the boys and enjoy Louise's wonderful cooking. Caleb and Julian really love Liam (aka Lee Lee), even though they don't get to see him very often they had such a nice time together dyeing eggs, finding eggs, and just hanging out and sharing candy. I don't remember much fighting (if any, but I know that can't be right), which is so nice.


Grandma's garden seemed to have lots of springtime magic in it- the apple blossoms looked beautiful. It was a perfect Easter weekend.
