Easter

We got to have a special visitor for Easter!! Julie flew in on Thursday night of that weekend and spend until early Monday Morning. Rondaleen came and spent the day Friday, cause I had to work. I met them for lunch at Sweet Tomato. Friday night, we drove to Mesa to see the Easter Pageant. Julie had never seen it before, of course, so we thought it might be fun. We had a great time. This is a shot of the angels getting a group photo together. It was fun to watch them.

Waiting for the pageant to begin. While we were waiting, we had a fun surprise. Iona Burbank walked up and said hi. She and Warren were there with some friends that live by them. It was fun to see them. They hadn't seen Julie since she graduated high school. Iona worked with Julie in the Children's Theater Group in Corcoran when we lived there.
I couldn't resist posting this photo of some flowers that were at the temple grounds. They were gorgeous! It was so much fun to have Julie here. We enjoyed every minute. She got Becca and me playing cards and we stayed up til 1:00 am Saturday night playing "Hand and Foot." We also were naughty and played during the afternoon session of conference, though we did listen when it was not our turn!
Thanks for coming Julie! I thought it was funny that these girls would sit together with their matching computers and get on Facebook. They were probably "chatting" with each other. They do that...

Looks like you had so much fun with your girls. Good to see Rondaleen--she look great. And to run into Iona--what are the chances.
