Happy Easter

Hello Family! I was just outside noticing the beautiful daffodils that are popping up everywhere lately and it just reminded me of how much my Heavenly Father loves me and shows it to me by the beauties of the earth. I hope everyone is having a great Easter and I love you so much!

Our Old Houses

Julie, Brent and Devin came to visit us on Easter Sunday. They took a tour of our old neighborhoods and found some of the houses that we have lived in had changed-a lot! Here are some pictures of the house on 2475 East (we lived there in the early 60's) and the house on 3020 South (we lived there in the late 50's-early 60's).

A Shower?

I remember when I was little and mom had been invited to a baby shower. She was just leaving the house with her present when I noticed that she had forgotten her shower cap. So, being the helpful little daughter, I ran and got it for her. No one had bothered to tell me that they didn't take showers at a baby shower!

Last Saturday we had a fun time at a baby shower for Carolynn. We had a small brunch and opened presents and played silly games. (Name the candy bar) But the most fun was just being together. We love our family and wish that everyone could have been there! For those of you who haven't met Alyson yet (Kendall's fiancee), she's sitting next to Carolynn in some of the pictures on the slide show. We are so happy she is joining our family.

Deer Dad

Dad sent me some pictures he took last Saturday morning as deer wandered into his yard-acting like they owned the place. At first I wondered if they were decorations left over from Christmas but no, they are real. Just so they stay off the highway!

Engaged!!!!

Last week Leslie and her boyfriend, Jason went on a cruise with all of their friends. While in Jamaca they hiked up Dunn's River Falls. At the falls, Jason pulled out a ring and proposed to Leslie. Boy was she ever surprised! We are so excited. No date has been set, but they are looking at sometime this July. Congratulations Leslie & Jason!!!

Baptism Day

 
 

After recovering from the flu, Corinne was finally able to be baptized yesterday. We had to postpone it last week since she was so sick. She was feeling great yesterday, though, and is super happy to be an official member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Grandma Ross gave a great talk on baptism and her other Grandma Love gave a talk on the Holy Ghost. Mauri and her friend sang a beautiful song, "Someone Needs Your Star" which has a line in it that reminds me of Corinne. It says, "You may be small, but you hold more goodness than you know". That's exactly what I think of Corinne -- she's a big spirit in a little body. We are all very proud of her and her decision to be baptized.

Does anyone read this blog?

Hey family, come on! You need to get on the ban-wagon and start blogging!  I can see only a few who are taking the time to contribute when in all reality we want to know what you are all doing!!!  So, instead of just reading this blog, lets see some enthusiasm about the wonderful lives of all the Buchanan kids and communicate while we have the chance!  I love you all and to those who are actually taking the time to write about your lives, thank you!  I guess I am just curious!

I found this video circulating around my friend's blog and thought you would all enjoy it! It's really funny!
