Strawberries are so good!

Today we went to go strawberry picking in Holly Hill. It was very pleasant and we had a good time. I was supposed to go to a different farm this morning with the ward but then Jeanine said she couldn't go with me so I decided to wait for Levin to get home. We, and Ansley and Sam drove out and got ourselves about 4 lbs of strawberries. They were so ripe and juicy.

Family Time

We had so much fun this past weekend up in Greenville and then onto Gatlinburg, TN to spend time with Levin's family. Lewis, Nat and the girls flew out from Seattle and Keri flew out from Arizona. We met on Saturday at the temple in Columbia for Leckie's endowments which was super cool to be in the temple with family and then we all went back up to Greenville. We had a flat tire on the way and barely made it to the session but it ended up good in the end. We went to church and sang a nice song as a family. It's sweet when family can sing together cause all the voices blend. We packed and stuffed three cars and headed off for Tenneesee. We spent Monday and Tuesday hanging in the cabin getting to know each other better. The cabin was so sweet. We only ventured out to play lazer tag and Putt Putt Golf. We went swimming not only in our hot tub but in the heated pool such a hop skip and a jump away. Grandma Gunter brought so much food and so we all ate like kings until we couldn't move anymore. We also took time to take family pictures and watched some family DVD's. The weekend was so so so fun and I know Levin and I really enjoyed ourselves. We were sad that Cameron wasn't there but he's doing important work and it gives us an excuse to do it again cause we definately will have to do it again. Here's some photos...a lot of photos

Easter Festivities

I love this time of year when all the flowers start to bloom and the sun stays out longer and the birds become twitter patted. I love relearning and concentrating on the most precious gift we have, Salvation given to us by the sacrifice of our Savior Jesus Christ. I love getting together with family and dressing up the little ones. This year we all got together at my grandma's house. We ate ridiculous amounts of food, played some games and let enjoyed watching Ansley all grown up (well she has some growing to do but wow she has changed so much.) The egg hunt was a little lame cause the little kids are still so little and we hid too many eggs for them to find, but it was still fun. We are used to having so many kids that it was a competition to see who could find the most eggs. Poor Kaira was sick but we just had to get some photos of Kaira, Ansley and Sonni all together. They are going to be best of friends.

The day before Easter, on my grandpa Adamas' birthday we made a special trip down to Kibbee, GA to decide how to finalize the headstone for the grave site. We also meet with grandpa's cousin James and his wife Undine Fortner. It was fun to talk story with them and remember my grandpa and what a good man he was. James is the son of my grandpa's aunt Normie whom he loved like his own mother. Normie was sister to grandpa's dad.
