Easter Eggstravaganza

Here is what the Waldron's did over Easter weekend:
First, we all attended Dallin's early morning soccer game. He is doing such a great job this season!
We then high-tailed it to Pulte park for the ward Easter party. Here is Bishop Waldron supporting his wife who is on the activities committee by holding Spencer the entire party.

The kids participated in a great egg hunt and scored quite the egg collection.

Next we went home, counted the candy, ate some and then decided that we needed some more.
Dallin, Claire and I hopped in the car, drove back to Pulte park for the homeowners association egg hunt and party. Not to be rude, but it was pretty lame. Not what I was hoping for the $60 monthly association fee paid by us each month. Claire, however, was in love with the Easter Bunny who roamed the entire party. She told him her favorite everything and was thrilled that he couldn't speak so she could do all of the talking. Dallin was pretty stoked when he saw the clown doing face painting. Check out this work of art:

Coolest Pikachu ever (who in the world is Pikachu anyhoo?)
Easter Sunday was wonderful.
The kids woke up to find Easter eggs strewn all over the house, but first they found their baskets filled with fabulousness and goodies. They then took their newly emptied baskets on an egg hunt... Spencer had a blast watching from the Baby Bjorn. After presents and eggs, we had a cinnamon roll breakfast and we felt so blessed to have Daddy/Bishop home all to ourselves for the entire morning.
We then went to church and our ward choir sang for the first time since its inception last month (I have been called as the ward choir director, so this was pretty exciting)!
We came home from a wonderful and uplifting day of church to a delicious Easter dinner with some special friends. Bill and Donna Cherry as well as Bob Hunt and Diane Burd all came over and spent the rest of Easter with us. It was so wonderful to visit with them and have a special Easter dinner and lesson with them.

What a great weekend filled with a special mix of Easter fun and it's true significance. How incredibly grateful we are for the birth, life, death and resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
He is truly what makes it a Happy Easter.
Happy Easter.

Monster Meal

These little mints have provided our little family with a game that will probably never be forgotten. First of all, if you know my Dallin you know how much he loves to eat at the Olive Garden. We go there every-so-often together as a family and this is what we do every time our meal is finished and the after-dinner mints are brought to our table:

1- the kids quickly get under the table armed with a fork to hide from the Olive Garden "monster"
2- when Peter and I "see" the "monster" getting closer, we begin to stomp our feet in a rather wild fashion (remember the kids are right there, under the table)
3-the kids poke the underside of the table with their forks (shh, don't tell the restaurant on us) in order to scare the monster away
4- the monster is so incredibly scared that he "poops" under the table and runs away.

The poop happens to be these delicious little dinner mints. The kids are stoked that they scared the monster away and are ever so grateful for the delicious "poop" left behind.

Not very proper or dignified, but Waldron none-the-less.

Brother Band

My cool and super-talented brother, Scott, is in an electro/synth band called Killing Thursby and they just debuted their very first album under the new name (they used to be called Mosiac)!

Check them out at www.killingthursby.com. Cool stuff!
