I don't usually take my camera with me to the movies, but since Granny was babysitting a "Flat Stanley" for the weekend, we wanted to document all of his activities. So you get to see a blog post about our movie experience! It was really nice of Chuck's mom to take us all to the movies to see
Monsters vs Aliens . It was a cute movie, and the best part was that
Cheyanna was totally blown away by the awesome 3-D effects. She had never seen a 3-D movie before, and she was
sooooo excited about all those special effects. Another cool thing about the movie was that it mentioned my home town of Cocoa Beach a couple of times. :)
It was a really cold and windy Saturday. I thought this was a cute picture of Jennie,
Cade, and
Cheyanna walking into the theater. Notice Chuck is several paces ahead of the rest of the family. That is typical. I love the man, but he only has one walking speed--super fast! I always have to make an effort to keep up with his naturally long stride.
It was a huge treat for the kids to see a movie in a regular theater. We do take them to the dollar theater every once in a while, but
Redbox rentals are a much cheaper way for the whole family to view a movie, so that's our typical movie experience. (We recently rented
Bedtime Stories and that was a pretty cute movie too.)
Monsters vs. Aliens was a huge hit with the kids. They all loved it (especially Cheyanna). Thanks, Granny, for a really fun weekend!
Lots of Easter Eggs were found. 
It was a really fun Easter with Grandma and Granny both here for the weekend. 
I love this picture of Cheyanna's excitement after openeing her Hippo Pillow Pet.

Cheyanna had fun finding eggs. This year she didn't stop to eat any of the candy until she was done hunting. Good strategy!
Ruby is showing Charlie a little love. (Yuck!)
Here is Cade with the Flat Stanley that Granny is babysitting. I forgot to pack Cade's PJ's, so he got to sleep in Granny's soft and snuggly Micky Mouse sweatshirt.
We had a fun Easter at Granny's house. She always spoils us with great food and a fun time. Her ward put on a really nice Easter program that helped us to appreciate the real meaning of Easter, and to think about our Savior, the Atonement, and His Resurrection. I am so thankful for Him, and I really appreciate that through Him, we can overcome death and sin, and live again with our families. Hope you all had a Happy Easter too!
Cade is deeply concentrating on getting just the right shade of purple.
Charlie still thinks it's fun to color eggs. Here he is with one in his favorite color--lime green.
