Easter

We received another rejection this week. Jeremy had made it to the top 5 of a great company and we found out that he didn't get the job. We were very disappointed, but Jeremy continues to get job interviews and things.

We had a great Easter weekend. We got to spend it watching General Conference. I love getting to spend 2 days listening to the leaders of our church. It's an inspiring weekend and always leaves me striving to be a better person. What better way to celebrate the Atonement and Resurrection of our Savior than listening to His prophet and recommitting to being a better disciple of Him.

The Easter Bunny comes on Saturday at our house. We all went out for a walk in between the two Saturday sessions of conference and the Easter Bunny came while we were gone. Clara was pretty clueless about the Easter Bunny, but she knew that all those eggs were filled with candy!

Clara downed the candy pretty quickly. She only liked the "fruit snack" kind (gummy bunnies) and wouldn't have anything to do with the jelly beans or malt eggs. So after the gummy bunnies were gone, she spent the rest of the weekend playing with her empty eggs. This girl definitely takes after her mother. Look at how she organized her eggs:On Sunday, we went to Jeremy's parent's house for some family festivities. One of the several things we did was participate in the family Easter Basket treasure hunt. Again, Clara was pretty clueless as to why all her cousins were running from one place to the next, but she sure loved chasing them all around. She tripped and fell during the hunt and smacked her face on the sidewalk. But she sure loved eating her spoils despite the scraped up face!More funny things from Clara:
I needed to go to a nearby store this week. So I decided to walk since it was such a nice day. On the way to the store, Clara started to wander away from me, so I asked her where she was going. Her reply: "To the store, remember?" Oh she makes me laugh!

Clara was pretending to fish as we drove to Salt Lake. Clara was mentioning all the things that she caught: a wheel, another wheel, and a prince. Boy would I love to fish is that pond!
