Easter Traditions

Every year, we dye Easter Eggs.  Here are the ones from this year.



Yes, that's a snowman

There is another Easter tradition we participated in.  The Hinckley's (family friends from Minnesota who now live in Utah) have a giant Easter Egg Hunt every year.  Janet and I picked up Ella for the fun.  Ella didn't care much to look for eggs, but the bounce house and swinging with Grandma were a hit.  Who wouldn't want to spend a whole afternoon with this sweet girl?

Birthamagrad Day

By some trick of the University, the Men's Chorus was asked to sing at commencement.  Elder Scott asked for them.  So Brad had to go to graduation.





If you're singing at your own graduation, you'll have your family come.




And if you have your family come, then you might as well go to convocation as well.



And if you go to convocation, you'll have to get pictures of everyone.





And after pictures, they'll want to have dinner at a nice restaurant.


And after dinner, you'll want to celebrate Brad's birthday since it's only a week away.

And since it Brad's birthamagrad day, we'll eat Dairy Queen Ice Cream Cake.


It was actually a very nice to have everyone come to celebrate Brad's graduation.  We loved having everyone there to celebrate with us.  And it wasn't as bad as Brad thought.
