Family! Oh how I miss living close to my family! It makes me sad when I hear of my sisters going shopping, or my brother's lacrosse games, or celebrating birthdays all going on with out us. A few weeks ago, we were blessed with a much needed visit from my mom and brother. It was so great to see them! While they were here, Hallie got EXTRA spoiled, Eric and RJ wrestled and played enough video games to last a life time, we went to the Coca Cola Factory (way cool by the way), and we all ate way more than we should have.
Soon after, it was time to talk about bunnies, decorate eggs, and celebrate hope with EASTER! We had a great Easter weekend, truly enriching thanks to General Conference. For those who don't know what General Conference is, it is a meeting held twice yearly where our Prophet and many leaders from the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints encourage us, warn us, and nourish our hearts. This year it happened to fall on Easter, very fitting. Click here for more info on the Mormon church and our dear Prophet.
Here are a few pictures of our Easter festivities!
We spent the weekend at the Mitchell's house. Hallie and Dax are bestfriends/worst enemies. Whenever they are apart, all I here is "Dat? Dat? Dat?" over and over again, but the second they start playing, Hallie turns into a hitting, toy stealing little monster. Not cool Hal, not cool.
We boiled tons of eggs for decorating. I accidentally grabbed the one carton of non-hard-boiled eggs, turning our hunt from this:
To a yard full of this:
Easter morning, he came!!! That stinkin bunny left Hallie her favorite snack, Lil' Crunchies. I never buy these things, and every time I do, I remember why...
She busted into these things right away screaming, "Crunchies, Crunchies, Crunchies" and seriously inhaled almost this entire thing before I realized it. Then, she threw a fit at every meal for her precious Crunchies. She refused to eat anything else in the house until those blasted Crunchies were gone. Why did I buy them? Why did I decide to stock up on them? I hope you enjoyed those Cruchies Hallie cause they were your last... until I forget again. So, Gerber, if you are looking for an adorable Lil' Crunchie monster who believes in and is addicted to your product, I have just the girl for you.

Ha ha. Hallie is so cute. Is is possible that she is getting cuter?! :) Glad you got to visit with family! We are far from home too so we miss them...most of the time. :) RJ...HOly cow. I haven't seen that boy since he was like 6? I think?
She's a cutie! My kaleigh has the same monkey pj's :)
HAHAHA...way too funny! I am going to have to have Dax try those crunchies. Hallie is so funny when it comes to food. All you really have to do to keep her quiet anywhere is take something along that she'll like to eat. You should just bring crunchies everywhere you go. haha. She's adorable.
hallie so cute!
She is seriously a little beauty!! It is hard to live away from all the action. And by the way I really do love your hair dark! I went all dark once but I missed my highlights way too much!!
Ohmygosh Brittany, catching up on your blog is so fun- I can't believe how big Hallie is getting and how ADORABLE she is! She's such a doll! And I'm really sad that you guys won't be moving to TX after all, I would love for her and Chandler to get to know each other (and us too!) But I'm glad you are making the right decision for your family by staying in Georgia- yay for keeping up through blogs, right?! Ü
She is SO CUTE! Hurry and visit AZ, we are going back to BYU in December!
