Easter 2008

G-ma and G-pa Sheen came down Friday and were here for what we called "Easter Bunny Day", our day for the typical Easter Egg hunt and Easter Bunny gifts. The past few years, we've done all that on Sunday and decided this year to split that off so that we can help the kids distinguish between the celebration of spring, new life, and the Easter Bunny, and the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It was a recommendation from the Ensign, and we thought it worked really well. The kids were surprisingly less sugar crazy at church too!

Anywho, G-parents Sheen had their camera out more than we did (we only took out our video camera), so hopefully they'll post their pictures sometime. We had lots of fun with them, and Amy and I actually got to see that movie Juno while they watched kids Friday night. It was a pretty awesome weekend.

Before we went to church we got some amazing pictures of the kids. Click on any of the below to see a bigger version of these.



Happy Easter!

Saint Patty's

Here's just a few quick pictures from the kids on Saint Patrick's Day. I forgot to wear green that day, and boy did they let me know when I got home from work.

Some great pictures... some ok ones too.

Check out flickr for some updated pics of the fam. My dad's been asking for some pictures of my car, so I posted what I had there too. It's a good time in the Sheen house everyone!

Also, I don't have pictures of it here, but last Friday we had a chance to listen to President Packer talk to all the seminary teachers and their spouses. It was pretty cool at the end that he gave an apostolic blessing to all the seminary teachers' children and grandchildren - so with Amy's mom still teaching seminary, our kids got double blessed. Pretty amazing.
