a few from zions

all of these pictures crack me up.

3 amigos - the 3 amigos sitting there. you go from dirty to cleaner to cleanest. someone has taught makenna to cross her legs. cherisse and i are proud parents because ethan is sitting, and sat long enough to take a picture. makenna being the oldest of the 3 sat down, i am not sure if she did it on her own or was instructed to, either way she set the example. i know that no one told her how to sit, but very proper.
april and ashton - april making sure that ashton is clean for the ride back home. ethan on the other hand i think rode home wearing his banana Popsicle as well as some pizza.
mom and popsicle - mom asking something about the ingredients in the Popsicle, if it is safe to be in the tree, how many credit card points were tallied up with the purchase of that camera, who put all of the farm equipment in this little park, if there was a travel agency in the hurricane, if i knew that i had a bogie in my nose, how much money lauren wanted if mom could pop that zit on the back of her neck, why it would be a good idea for all of us to move back up to move up to oregon, upset by my answer to someones question as to how many days she has been in the same clothes, or many other possibilities.
shasta lauren - lauren on her 4th shasta soda. gotta try them all.
ethan & adrian - ethan having fun with poopy papa. dad making sure that the hat is still protecting the wisps of hair that are still attatched to his scalp.
nighty night - last but not least dad trying to get some old man afternoon sleep. just a little nap. as i remember this was short lived. at one point he was all sprawled out and relaxed, so relaxed he let one of his little friend slide out. we all had a good laugh. nothing like dad to break the silence and wind. just helping everyone feel comfortable and relaxed.

real easter

In case this is the only Easter entry i think you should all know that lorenzo, ernesto, smiths and me (luke) were all at wendy's house in utah while all the frantic kiddies hunted out the plastic eggs littered over the yard. Little Kenna battled for the most eggs and I believe she won with her official total of "ONE HUNDRED" ...that's what she told me. It was a fun Easter with a wonderful church lesson about the TRUE meaning of easter followed by lots of food, candy and pastels. The time I had was equally as good as the potato salad which was Reeeeal very mmmMMM GOOOOd.

BREAKING NEWS: lauren is scared of soccer balls. AND spiders. Both of which will make her cry. Quote "Whay did God make spiders??!! Cry Cry sob sob sniffle sniffle Hold me Ernesto!!!"

MORE BREAKING NEWS: Post Easter pictures have been found of Makenna counting her "ONE HUNDRED" eggs which were actually audited and found to be only 52...and then "chief egg inspector" MOM looked them over for supposed salmonella, razor blades and rabbit droppings??? ...She then ordered kenna to "PAY dUEs" and give MOMmy her 30% commission to cover gas, birth, and the wicker basket handling fee. The blurred image makes it apparent that even then shutter speed of the camera wasn't fast enough to catch the tyrannical transaction. (I love you April and thanks for letting me stay with you. It was a lot of fun. I want a rematch of Memory next time I'm there.)
