Easter and Baby Shower

With the help of my mom and sisters we made a delicious easter dinner with Ham, 5-Cup Salad, Deviled Eggs, Rolls, and Mashed Potatoes. It was lovely.
This is what the Easter Bunny put in Devin's Easter Basket. The Easter Bunny fell completely in love with this picture at the store and then when he discovered it on sale well he just thought it would be perfect! How did he know Naomi had been looking for a beautiful picture of the Salt Lake City Temple for about 2 years now. We love it.
Discovering our Easter Basket Spencer got some Cars
All our Eggs, there were 72 all hidden in our Family Room (36 real Eggs and 36 fake eggs)
Marianne trying to figure out the shell on the real Egg
She was much happier with the candy filled ones
I love her pensive look

Spencer was very happy to discover the candy filled eggs as well. He through the Jelly Beans into the air yelling Happy Easter!

We dyed Easter Eggs with Silk Ties (below) regular dye and crayons, Above is the egg that

Asa made with crayons, this was his first time dying Easter Eggs ever, and what an artist!

So fun to have Sharon here and Katie
The whole group
Saturday Morning we had Darlene's Hawaiian Baby Shower. Marianne was decked out in this Tongan outfit made by Darlene's Mother-in Law
The Happy Parents
The Food to dye for, we had Rice, Chicken Kabobs, lots of fruit, Root beer (Darlene's Favorite) Chocolate Macadamia Nuts, Pineapple truffle's, and homemade Ice Cream Smoothies.
Marianne is 14 months and just yesterday took her first baby step, she did it while Devin was their so that is nice. But I havn't been able to trick her into doing it again. Oh well she'll get their when she is ready. In the background of these pictures is the Quilt Darlene is making for her baby, she did a great job on it.

Here is Marianne with her Great Grandpa Smith, he is so great with all the babies.
Marianne loves Babies, she can say about a few words these days, mama, Dad-ee, All Done, Walk (Wa, wa), Doghee, and now Baby,

She loves walking with the train.
