So-o-o-o CUTE!!!

Garrett and Morgan looked so flippin' cute at church today that I had to blog it! Ryan thought he and Garrett would play a trick on me before church. I had Garrett all dressed and ready to head out the door except he needed shoes. I tell Ryan to put his church shoes on while I finish Morgan's hair. Garrett comes walking up to me, sticks out feet and tells me he is all ready. Ryan had put Garrett's sandals on with his socks. I know if you are from Utah County that might not sound bizarre, but to everywhere else is the USA--sandals and socks are not okay! Garrett and Ryan bust out laughing and ha-ha joke is over right?? No--we were in such a rush to get out the door that Ryan forgot to change him into his shoes. During sacrament meeting both Ryan and I look down and see Garrett's argyle socks with his brown leather sandals--uggggg! Other than that, Garrett looked adorable in his sweater vest & tie. Now to Morgan--cutest thing to ever have two legs. So many mom's at church asked me how I did her hair--flat iron ladies and yes lots of style freeze hairspray. To get the complete hairdo though you must go www.maddiemorgan.com and get the interchangeable headband and flower--don't forget to email me for a discount first!!!

Easter

Happy Easter! For those of you familiar with the movie "Easter Parade" will get the tone in which I mean to say, "Happy Easter." My one question is, when did Easter become a mini Christmas? Candy, clothes, toys...our family room is now filled with new things. Grandma Dorothy sent an Easter package. Grandma Andersen sent an Easter package. The Easter Bunny came. Easter Egg hunts. It was a big hoopla. It really was fun, but I was left to ponder about the craziness of the holiday. Anyway, just my thoughts. It sounds like I am down on Easter but it really was a fun day. My brother Jared and his family came to visit for the weekend. Garrett and Morgan had a great time with Jacob, Olivia, and Madison. Garrett likes to torment Olivia a little bit and Olivia likes to tattle on Garrett so it is about even. Garrett and Morgan both got new Easter outfits--and yes I mean outfits. They looked adorable at church in their new Easter clothes. Cutest kids in the ward--or so I am told :). They also got new collegiate wear. You know that a holiday isn't complete unless Ohio State gear is included. Garrett got a new Ohio State t-shirt and jersey and Morgan got a new Ohio State cheerleader uniform. They are ready for football season to begin! The biggest hit of the day was the mini piano that the Easter bunny brought. It is too cute. It is a black baby grand piano--the perfect size for both Garrett and Morgan to hone their inner Mozart. We had a real band going this morning with all the instruments that we have. Guitars, piano, trumpet, flute, ukulele. This band is going on tour!
