Easter Day


Zoey looked so cute in her Easter dress. Thanks to my wonderful Aunt Kathy--she gave it to her.


Sallie, Lemuel (my dad), me and Zoey and the gift that the Easter Bunny brought Zoey;
her very own digital camera.


Here Jon and his brother Matthew gave Danielle and I a Yo-Bang-Poe dance (if any of you saw Amazing Race that may make a little sense to you). It was hilarious!

Well, Easter was busy just like any other holiday for us. After church we went to my dad's for dinner. The LDS missionaries came over and ate with us which was neat. Sallie and Stevie were also there. My dad did pork, chicken and veggies in a dutch-oven. He also made some delicious homemade biscuits and blueberry dump cake....yummy! After that we went to the Baza's to hang out and watch The Amazing Race. What a day! It was quite a party: Jon's Grandma Baza and Uncle Mike, Jon's parents and then Andrew and Cliff, Matthew and Danielle and Mary Elizabeth.

Easter Activities

Zoey, Granny Shanny and Rainey

Greyson and Zoey hunting for eggs

Avery and Zoey (they are only a couple days apart)
Avery had a "boo-boo" so Zoey needed a Band-Aid too


Zoey and Lilly-as long as we told Zoey that Lily was a baby,
she was delighted to have Lily sit on her lap


The Sutton Girls and Zoey decorating eggs

Every year we have an Easter egg hunt with my mom's side of the family and with my cousins and their kids. It's always a lot of fun. Thanks to my cousins Jen and Ashley for putting it all together. Zoey wasn't quite sure what to do at first but finally got the hang of it when she realized there was candy inside the eggs. I made homemade cupcakes for the event. They looked almost like little Easter eggs. I think the best part is just getting all of the kids together to play. They don't get to see each other too often so it is a lot of fun. Later on Saturday night we went to my mom's to color and decorate eggs. Zoey had never does this before and she had a lot of fun.

ZOO

Zoey absolutely loves to go to the Zoo. We had a season pass last year and ended up renewing it again for this year. She has so much fun there and is always asking about going back.

HAPPY 21 MARY


Zoey didn't want to be left out


Make a wish!

Grandma Baza, Sara, Danielle and Mary

Congratulations to my sister-in-law Mary, she turned 21! We had a great celebration for her. We went to dinner the night before her birthday to Buca di Beppo and then on her birthday evening we all had dinner at The Baza's and some fabulous chocolate cake. As you can see from a few of the pictures, we had to scrounge up a couple of candles so Mary could make a wish! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARY!
