We had such a fun Spring Break! We were able to spend time with my family the first part of the week, then Ray's parents, two of his sisters and their families came for Easter! As you can see, Marinne was in hog heaven to have her cousins here to do girlie stuff with. Some of the relatives stayed at Camelback Inn in Scottsdale. One day we hiked Camelback Mountain and went swimming at the resort. It felt like a real vacation. I want to go stay there for an anniversary or something (hint, hint).
Ray demonstrated his hula hoop skills at the Easter picnic. He should probably keep his day job. On Sunday however, he shared his real talent by singing a solo in sacrament meeting. He did an excellent job! 
Yes, that is a black eye. I did not witness the incident, but according to Blake, it was an "accident" involving a broom and a metal chair.
We also attended the Easter Pageant and got ice cream after. I think James could have used a little help!
It was great to be with family and enjoy the wonderful weather! We topped off the fun with an announcement on Easter...
We are having a baby! The due date is November 13th, and we are excited to add to the Hammond chaos!
