Easter and a haircut

Happy belated Easter, everyone! Joe had a week off of school for Spring Break, so we took the opportunity to make a trip to Utah to show off our new baby to family and friends. Once again, I was bad at taking pictures, so I apologize for not covering every event from our trip. We started our trip in SLC at Joe's grandparents; we were there from Friday night (late late -- we found that driving at night works best for two kids) until Tuesday morning. We got to eat Easter dinner with them and my brother Bryan and Mary and Jesse (Joe's sister and husband). We mostly spent time with grandma and grandpa, Mary and Jesse on the trip, but we also stopped over to visit Joe's Grandma Hansen as well.

The second half of the trip (Tuesday until Friday morning) was spent in Provo, where we stayed at my Aunty Eleanor's house. We still have friends in Provo, finishing various degrees. I got to spend time with Amanda and Morgan, my long lost roommates, and my brother Bryan. Joe visited some mission friends, as well as Travis and Michelle and their new baby Peter (Travis is Joe's old roomy). It was good to get out of town and visit all of these fine folks.

The second item of interest is a new haircut for me. I got it cut with Amanda while I was in Provo, and I must say, I have mixed feelings about it. It kind of reminds me of my bad growing-out-hair after I had my hair in a Pixie cut. I also feel like I look like one of the Beatles. The girl just wasn't getting what I wanted done with my hair, despite me bringing a picture. So tell me what you think I should do with it. But be nice. I'm sensitive about it right now. One of my Primary kids said to me, "What did you do to your hair?" Yes, kids can be brutally honest.
