Easters

Every time someone mentions Easter Britton replies with this...



We had a great Easter at the Olson homestead. The Conti-Browns also joined us so we got some sweet Gabe/Will pictures too.
Apparently this was the year for the husbands to treat the wives because Britton and Peter got nothing... I know, boo on the wives. But our first Easter together I made Britton a great Easter basket, and he did nothing. So it evens out. We haven't had many Easters together yet.


Will also qualified for an Easter present. He has graduated to a sippy cup and LOVES it!

I got a lot of...guess what...CHOCOLATE! Growing up my mom never got her own Easter basket so she claimed the ears on our chocolate bunnies. Too bad she was too far away to stake her claim on this one!

Happy B-day to Me

How old am I? yellow candles = 10 years, blue = 5 and pink = 1. It was Britton's idea because we were low on candles.
I know the candles are hard to see but since I'm definitely not 16, (although some people still think so...) I must be 26 this year!! This year the Olsons came to party with us, and we went to the creche exhibit. I didn't know what creche meant until I moved here, but as with everything in this area they go BIG or they go home. The exhibit was just as amazing as last year. Then the Olsons made me dinner and we had cake while I opened presents. Britton is taking me to a French restaurant and the Nutcracker next week! (after finals)

I'm always surprised by how much chocolate I get every year! On my mission EVERY person who sent me something sent chocolate...I loved it, but I also learned a very important lesson. If you eat nothing but chocolate in a 24 hour period, you won't have your usual energy to ride your bike around town and climb flights of stairs. I guess it's better in moderation.

Is chocolate my kryptonite? NOOOOOO!
