Four score and 7 weeks ago...

...(or more than 7 weeks ago)...was Easter/Conference Weekend 2010. I never posted pictures because I just got my memory card reader back from one of McCord's movie shoots. So, we're going to back track a little to 7 weeks ago...ish. I guess it's more than 7 weeks ago, now that I think about it.
My mom is awesome at sewing, crocheting, and being domestic in general. She taught me a little about crocheting. We didn't get too far, but hopefully I'll get to a point where I'm as awesomely domestic as she is. She used to make me easter dresses every year when I was a little girl. She altered and enhanced ALL of my prom dresses and my wedding dress. She's simply amazing and more.

Obviously Nate was paying sooooo much attention to conference in this picture. He was making tongue tatoos with the fruit roll ups. He always makes me laugh.

Joe and I decided to blow eggs for easter. I totally thought that it would be easier than it really was. After blowing one, my sense of accomplishment was at it's peak and I was SO not going to do 5 or 6 more. Joe went on to do more and one exploded in his mouth and hands. I just happened to get a picture.

The Larsen home tradition is that we make danish hotcakes. McCord made the hotcakes this year for my family for the first time. Mmm, so good. This tradition will live on hopefully for a very long time.

Yep! That's my hubby being a chef. Every wife's dream: not have to make breakfast every once in a while. =) Easter was awesome. It's always so much fun. It was extra special to have it on conference weekend. One of our best.

SKY VIEW HIGH SCHOOL - Guiness Book of World Records Cereal Art
My high school alma-mater (sp?) the humanities department made the largest cereal art in the world in the big basketball gym. I was told that it attracted "Ripley's Believe It Or Not" and will be in 2010 Guiness Book of World Records for the largest cereal art in the world. I'm so proud to say that I went there. Woo Hoo! They based it off of Silent Night by Vincent Van gogh. I think they did amazing.


These are the huge boxes of cold cereal that were donated. There were over 15 of these huge boxes. Insane!


McCord and me. You can't see us very well, sorry.

Here's a video. It was so hard to get the size perportion in the picture. Notice how small the people are.

Apparently I will find anyway possible to blow up cookware. After shattering my casserole dishes on the stove, burning something at least once in every apartment we've lived in, and melting plastic gadgets, I came home to a smoke filled apartment and my baking poor poor baking stone:
