After having my sister, Julianne live with us for three months, we drove out to California to take her home so she could get ready to go back to school. And it was a good excuse for us to visit the family, of course. We loved having her come and both agree that she can come back and live with us any time! We love you Julianne!

While in California, the kids had a blast playing with their aunts and uncles, we took a family trip to Knight's Ferry to hike around some of the historic sites there and the kids did a pre-Easter egg hunt. We love it when we get to go to Nona and Grandpa's house.

Arthur and I also got to see my family perform in a multi-stake production of "Savior of the World" which my Dad helped direct. We were so impressed with the production, and so proud of all the work they all put into making it happen. Good job, guys; it was really phenomenal!
