Carly Crosland

Clara's special party finally came! She has been talking about her birthday party ever since Lucy's party back in February. She had told me she wanted a Minnie party forever, but after I got home from Disneyland she switched to a 'Pluto' party... Haha.. Uhhh... Luckily all the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse decorations have plenty of Pluto characters mixed in, and she still loves Minnie and the whole gang, so it worked out great! We were planning on having the party at the park and the weather forecast looked awesome, then randomly it was so foggy and cold from the overcast clouds! I had everything in my car ready to head to the park and wait it out, when Jaymie saved the day and offered me her house. My house was a disaster, so it worked out perfect. Love you Jaym! I kept asking her who she wanted to invite and all I ever got was Georgia. and then she remembered Remi! So Clara got her party with her two friends Georgia and Remi, and a few more of her friends she see...

We had a fabulous Easter! I think I've mentioned this before, but I am Lucy's primary teacher and it was so much fun to teach her little class all about the true meaning of Easter. Tyler and I spoke in church a couple years ago on Easter and for my talk I decided just to go through the whole story of Christ's crucifixion and his resurrection and it was so emotional. I think that we get so caught up in everyday life and nit-picky things that we forget that the center of our church and our main focus is the savior, and how we can be more like him, serve him, etc... General Conference this year was incredible as usual, but I loved that the overall message seemed to be one of Love. Christ's greatest commandment is to love him, and love one another. That is what is the most important! And what a great time of year at Easter to remember that! The girls are still young enough that they are pretty oblivious to some things... Haha. We don't have church until 3 o'c...
