This year, we all were involved in dyeing eggs. Brandon had hard boiled the eggs while the girls and I were driving home from Mesa. Then, while we were dying eggs, one cracked..so I decided to peel the shell off and eat it. Turns out the that outside was cooked but the yoke wasn't. I told Brandon and he said he cooked them long enough. I asked how long and he said, "Three minutes". I guess somewhere in TV or something he'd heard SOMETHING about the "three minute egg". (Anyone else ever heard of that?) I hadn't. I usually boil my eggs for a good 15-20 minutes...or until one cracks open and I can tell that they are done! I just have to laugh at his "3 minute egg"! I don't know why I think it's so funny. So...needless to say...after hunting for the eggs Easter morning, none of the kids were forced to eat any for breakfast!
We actually made it to church on time. Brandon didn't have to go to morning meetings...so that helped! We got to sit on a cushioned bench instead of the hard, cold metal chairs they use to punish the late comers! Sacrament meeting was nice. I loved the messages given. Nursery was mass chaos! Weston is nursery age now. He'd do great in nursery if I wasn't nursery leader. He gets jealous and cries anytime I help or play with anyone other than him....and we had LOTS of criers on Sunday! But, it got better after the kids settled down. That only took about an hour!
Pam and Shon had the family over to their house for dinner. I was so glad that they had invited everyone because Easter just isn't the same if you don't spend it with family and we were thinking that we were just going to have to stay home since no one had invited us over and we don't have a house big enough to accommodate our large family. Dinner was super yummy. Pam made this salad dressing out of home made yogurt and cheese. (They have a milk cow)...she put dill and something else in it. Anyways...it was SO good! I ate two big helping of salad because I loved the dressing so much!
Hope you all had a great Easter too!

I just got off the phone with Pam...talked to her for well over an hour! I'm jealous you all had a huge gathering. We just had us and the missionaries over for dinner on Easter, kind of lower key than usual. Still...it was good. Love the "three minute egg" story, by the way!!!
Glad you had a nice Easter. Hopefully I will get my post done today. :) That stinks that you are nursery leader. I just got realeased and I'm glad cause I think if you have a child in there then you shouldn't be in there. Just my opinion.
Actually the 3 min egg thing does work. Dustin does it. You have to get the water to a good boil and then cover them, remove from heat and let sit covered for the 3 minutes. So weird I know! :)
Where are the Easter pics??
3-minute egg huh? I am glad that you had a fun, family filled Easter!
That is too funny about the eggs being undercooked. Glad you were able to have Easter dinner with some family.
