Happy Easter

We hope everyone had a Happy Easter! We had a luncheon at the Other Burtts' house Sunday afternoon - we missed not having Lloyd, Bethany, Joanna, and Carter Estep with us and Tina's fiance, Stephen, although she was on the phone with him for one of the pictures, so it made us feel like he was there with us.

Everyone went out to Culver's when mom and the kids went up for the Conference! According to the boys it's their favorite place to eat - I think they hit it 3 or 4 times their last trip to WI!
