Collin is the sweetest dude. He makes me smile every single day and I feel so blessed to be his wife. I know, gag me with a spoon... we're disgusting with all this mumbo jumbo lovey dovey stuff. Get over it. Marriage rocks! And we love each other. :)
But seriously! Collin is the most thoughtful hubs. Last year, he surprised me with a super cute Easter basket that I didn't see coming at all. So, this year, I decided to get him a couple of fun things and create my own Easter basket for him. To gear up for our trip to Africa, I got him a few Game Books. Sudoku. Word Find. YES! Gotta love 4 for $5 at the grosh. Some beef jerkey. A bit of Easter Candy (can't resist). And a child basketball hoop. (Collins nephew has one and every time we go to their house, he LOVES playing with it... and I saw it at Wal-Mart for cheap, so I couldn't resist). Just a few things. Not over the top, but just enough. He was THRILLED.
And he surprised me yet again too. A huge Easter Basket with lots of candy, little games and such, and also a new charm link necklace. He'd gotten me a bracelet similar to it last year that fell off of my wrist in Downtown Denver, never to be found again (I'm pretty sure I cried a little). Anyway, the necklace was the same style, but it will be much harder to lose with it around my neck. :) The funny thing is that we both got eachother "The Blind Side" DVD. Made us laugh. We hadn't seen it yet and we ended up loving it.
I love celebrating holidays with him. I had been a bit bummed about not spending Easter with any Thornton or Rothey family, but it turned out to be a great weekend, full of Conference, surprises and love! Happy Day!

We really missed you guys. It is kind of strange having you gone during our get-togethers. But know that you are missed and loved tremendously!
I forgot you weren't here...
ha ha! Just kidding. We miss not having your around, but you sure made out good. Colin makes all other husbands look bad.
You need to come home and see my fat belly.
