Marcia's 50th Birthday!

Marcia is the Princess of the Ball!

We decided to celebrate Marcia's Birthday by having a surprise Princess Party! No over the hill here! Instead, we made sure she had a beautiful birthday crown, complete with matching clip-on earrings, princess themed plates, cups, and napkins, and her favorite kind of cake and ice cream, german chocolate and chocolate with almonds.

Can she blow out 50 candles with one breath? Well, she did. You know what that means. This princess' wishes will come true! Happy Birthday!

"The Break Up"

Just some more news from Provo! Cecily's blog, Plain Vanilla, was just highlighted this week in the Deseret News. She wrote a really funny piece about graduating and the Harold B. Library called "The Break Up." If you haven't had a chance to look at it, make some time because it's simply delightful!

Congratulations Cecily! You're on your way to being a fantastic columnist!

Festival of Colors in Provo

The Festival of Colors is Hindu holiday that welcomes the coming of Spring. Participant celebrate by eating, dancing, singing, and throwing different colored paint powders at each other. It was a blast.

Easter

Here's a photo of the kids on Easter morning all dressed up and ready to go to church.

We had a wonderful Easter. On Saturday the kids enjoyed an Easter Egg hunt at their pediatrician's office. They put on a fun hunt and the kids came away with lots of fun stuff.

Sunday we enjoyed a wonderful visit with Megan, Cecily and Allison Harris and Rachel Stapp. They joined us for our Easter dinner, and they were wonderful guests. After our dinner was over we enjoyed some time on the Wii and watched an old video of Megan's High School graduation party. It was fun to see everyone singing Karaoke!

Easter

It was a wonderful Easter Party. A perfect day -- hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did.
