Have you ever tried putting a somewhat pink dress on a tomboy? Oh dear, it was like pulling teeth the morning of Easter. She really wanted to wear her dinosaur Easter dress. ??But after much bribery about how much fun her day was going to be....feeling feminine for an hour was completely worth it.
I sat my fat belly by a tree with my camera around my neck and had the most fantastic view of kids being kids....and adults being children.
Philip and I tried to get a pic together....it only took like 28 tries to have us both look at the camera....
My sweet sister-in-laws.
When my little girl wears pink, pictures must be taken.
(I put my camera away before the 3 large holes, bruised legs, bloody toes, and ratty hair came about. The dress must now be cut and made into a shirt. Sheesh!)
Most importantly, remembering our Savior with the people you love most...
could not have been more beautiful.

Melissa, I am so grateful you had your camera yesterday. That was a day to remember. I can't believe even the guys would do the Easter egg hunt with us. Livia and I had so much fun hiding the plastic eggs filled with money instead of candy.
I surely love that little tomboy of yours, but of well, what can I say. You were a tomboy and so was your mother!!! Being a tomboy is much more fun.
your dad and mine are SO much alike. i love it! we have some great men for dads don't we :) can't wait for you to get here. where are you thinking you will end up? let me know, we'll come down and help out.
Oh how FUN!! And, HAPPY EASTER!! I am sad to hear that you'll be moving...but it sounds like another great adventure!:) Your daughter is so darling, truly!! I wish you the very best and am looking forward to keeping in touch!!
but she looked so cute at church! I am glad you are still pulling your camera out--not too tired yet!

Your pictures are always so wonderful...all of them, but I especially LOVE the picture of your parents together (and all the compilations and the ones that show off your cute baby bump and...).
Beautiful Post! I wish we were there! See you in California!!!
Looks like a fun Easter. Your new baby girl will be such a fluffy, foo foo girly girl who loves pink, you just wait.
Liv sounds just like me as a child, I was not opposed to pink but to dresses in general!! COULD NOT STAND THEM!!! What will she do if this next little girl is a foofy little princess of a girl?
You look AMAZING by the way, as I expected! I am also SO SO SO happy that we are going through this together, how fun!
Well looks like a great day. My weekend was eventful but not as much fun as .... eventful! Check out my blog for details ;)
Loved the pictures!!! I would love to meet your daughter, she sounds like a riot! :) If I didn't read the stories about her, you would think that she is such a girly girl because she is beautiful!!! :) I love that. You look great. Have fun on your exciting adventure these next few months! :) I drove to Utah for spring break/conference. We didn't stop, but as we passed Rexburg I totally thought of you and Birch 206. Good times!!! :)Seems like a lifetime ago, huh??!
