Happy Easter 2011!

 Happy Easter!  I was thrilled that we had a nice sunshine day!  When my Dad and Mom were in the Philippines serving a mission for our church my Mom learned how to weave baskets out of the pages of old phone books.  It is quite a craft and the end result is stunning!  Well, this year I am one of three teachers for our Primary class on Sundays and Mom made individual Easter baskets for all 12 of our little Sunbeams.  They had Easter grass in the bottom and just big enough to hold a small plastic fillable egg with m&m's, a couple other candies and a little toy.  We delivered the baskets to our sunbeams on Saturday.  These little 4 year olds were so adorable with their sweet smiles and faces of wonder.

 Tulips and Easter Basket of goodies
My sister Ruth dropped by on Saturday with a fresh bouquet of Tulips for Dad and Mom.  They are so beautiful!  And Sunday morning the Easter Bunny (with the help of Janet) delivered an Easter Basket filled with goodies for Dad and Mom.  It was so fun!  Of course we made sure there were plenty of black jelly beans - Dad's favorite and peppermint patties - Mom's favorite.

Easter 2011
My daughter Amanda came by Sunday morning to go to church with us.  We had a nice time together.  Then family started dropping by.  We had a serve yourself type of luncheon of ham, homemade rolls, vegetable tray, fruit tray, jello salad and pasta salad and of course Easter cupcakes and lemon loaf bread.  It was so much fun to gather together!

My brother Terry just completed the Price 100 book 2nd edition.  What an accomplishment!  Dad and Mom were presented with this new book which added 16 new members of the Price Family Clan.  The book is incredible - each family member has a page with their photo, personal information such as birth date, blood type, where born, etc., and then an article about each one.  Dad and Mom are so pleased with this invaluable history of our family.  Kudos to Terry!
