Saturday night after the kids were in bed, I told Ben we should make them get ready for church tomorrow. It was General Conference weekend, or church on TV, as the kids like to call it. We lounge in our jammies, eat cinnamon rolls, and enjoy our MoTab and prophets from the comfort of our own home. We did all this on Saturday morning, but thought the boys were young enough, they might just fall for it. When will we ever have General Conference & April Fools on the same day again?
7:30 am, the kids are waking. Ben goes to the boys' room and tells them church is in 15 minutes, that they have to hurry and get dressed for church. Our church is normally at 8:30 and oft times it is chaotic getting there on time. They got ready fast, without arguing, which NEVER happens, and although they still have bed-head and no breakfast in them, they were out the door. Ruby & I weren't feeling good, so Ben took them and the camera. Here's the before:
ApRiL FoOl'S!
Hee-hee!
Ha-HA!
Very funny
Silly Dilly
Crazy boys
Ben had to fly out to NY around noon, so I took the kids to visit Grandma. She finally arrived about a week ago with Uncle Ron & Miss in their new motor home. I had saved the centennial newspaper (2/14/12) for my parents & grandma to read because it had a lot of neat history articles, and I thought they'd enjoy it. I brought it and gave it to my grandma because I know she loves the Sunday paper. I rolled and rubber banded and handed it to her when we arrived. It took her 4 hours after a lot of visiting and eating before she opened it. I had taken the kids to tour the motor home one last time and came back to the house before she asked about it. So happy she finally opened it before I left so I could APRIL FOOLS! HER and give her the current paper. She couldn't stop smiling! :)
