Happy Easter



This weekend we had Kaelub's aunt & uncle come to visit from Utah. They moved up there from Gilbert, AZ, about 2 years ago. They brought their 4 kids and stayed with us, which was a lot of fun. We have a lot of good memories from when they lived here and we would get together to go boating, play games, swim in their pool, and have BBQ's. We miss having them so close. So we have this little joke going on with this "Hot Potato" toy. It sings that song over and over again---you can imagine how annoying that gets. Well, they left it at our house right before they moved to Utah. We decided we had to give it back to them somehow, so we wrapped it in a box with Christmas paper and left it under their tree 2 Christmases ago. We didn't put anything on the outside as to who it was from. It was great to get the call from them after they opened it & hear how thrilled they were to have it back. ;) Saturday night I went to get into bed & I felt this plastic bag under the pillow. I pulled it out, and there was the dreaded hot potato! I couldn't believe it and Kaelub is already planning the return of it to the original owners. It's going to be good!
It was fun to see Eli come downstairs to his Easter goodies. We got him this fun little golf set and some fruit snacks (he is obsessed with them). Grandma Joy sent him a package with 3 cute Easter books, and one has textures in it that he just loves. Grandma Lynda & Grandpa Denny sent him an Easter puzzle & this fun little plastic peep that lights up. Thanks for all the fun stuff & we hope everyone enjoyed their Easter!

I love the golf set! Hopefully Eli will get more use out of them than either his dad or Shawn ever did when they golfed together - AKA driving the golf cart like you were in a crash up derby!
