A busy but wonderful Easter weekend!





We had a very busy but also wonderful Easter weekend. Friday night was family fun night for the Massey family so we spent some time at the mall, letting the older girls pick out new tennis shoes for their upcoming sports activities (Lauren soccer / Allison volleyball). They also enjoyed eating dinner in the food court where they get to pick what they want to eat! Saturday we started the day with Lauren's first soccer game, Daddy being the coach. She did great and had alot of fun. Nana surprised us and came up to see her play and take us to lunch afterwards! We had quite a bit of rain last week so the soccer field was soggy to say the least so the kiddos (and Coach Massey!) were pretty much full of mud by the end of the game. Allison enjoyed cheering for her sister and even made a sign to hold up during the game for her little sister! Katelyn just liked watching all of the action. Saturday afternoon, the older girls and Mommy went for a special treat to the movies to see the new Hannah Montana movie. We had a ball! We were able to get posters from the movie that they were handing out and of course, what's a movie without that popcorn full of butter???!!! Mommy has to admit that we ALL loved the movie and right afterwards, we headed to the music store to purchase the CD as part of the girls' Easter treats! Saturday night after bath time, we spent time coloring Easter eggs (Allie and Lauren loved it, Katie didn't quite see what all of the fun was about!), making our "resurrection" cookies (Allie did a great job reading all of the scriptures while we put the cookies together) and baking a bunny cake to take to Easter dinner at Grandma & Papa's house. Sunday morning we spent time worshipping our risen Savior at church and then headed to the lake house for our family dinner and egg hunt. We had a great sunny day to spend some time outside (a bit chilly but great for sweatshirt weather!) and everyone had fun being together, eating yummy food and relaxing. Daddy enjoyed getting some time to watch The Masters golf tournament on TV w/ Papa while the girls and their cousins played together. What a wonderful family time made even better knowing Christ has risen and is alive today for each of US!
