Happy Easter!

We hope that everyone had a wonderful Easter! We started off the weekend with an annual flashlight Easter egg hunt in our circle on Friday. The kids are so cute about it. Then Saturday we had a Jenson extended family get together at Lori's, but Savi went with a friend to a Easter train ride. She had an amazing time. We of course we had to roll hard boiled dyed eggs down the hill...a Jenson tradition. There is probably more throwing than rolling that happens, but it is to represent the rock that covered where Jesus laid, and it was rolled away when he was resurrected. I was introduced to this tradition on the same hill 8 years ago. I thought they were crazy, and they still are, but it is a fun tradition.  :-) On Easter Sunday we had 3 of my nieces and nephew with us so the Easter bunny was busy. The kids found their baskets pretty quick and early in the morning. Grandma Jenson gave the kids such cute outfits...it was the first thing Savi wanted from get basket, and she wore it all day with her beautifully done hair by our neighbor. Jana hid Mike's outside the window so it took lots of hot/cold clues to find it, and then the same with mine as Mike hid it on a shelf like 10 feet up. I thought Jana's was easy being under Sadie's crib but she was the last to find hers.  :-) We had a great day at church and a delicious ham dinner with some of the Jenson clan, and then everyone was there for another Easter egg roll. What a perfect Easter weekend! We are so grateful for the resurrection and the atonement, and to have the gospel in our lives.

We made it...and made it back!

(I wanted to post daily, but China restricts websites like blogs and Facebook. So here is my first post finally, but we are just waiting to get on our last plane to salt lake!)
So we made it! It's midnight here now and we're just chilling in Ginger's awesome place planning the week. It was super humid in the airport, and it seemed like we were the only ones there, but when we walked outside it was cool air and there were tons of people waiting for a taxi! We went with this guy that said he could take us right now, but when we got to his "taxi" there was a cop waiting behind his car so he couldn't move. He was in a "black cab" where they don't have a meter. It's hard to enforce but when you get caught it's a huge fine so we left him with the police and went back in line.  :-)

The first thing we did off the airplane was go to the restroom of course, and I was taken back to see the squatters in the airport. I went to the next stall of course, but I had to take a picture. I actually had to wait for a lady to get done even though there were lots of "regular" toilets. It is so fun to be here but we better get some sleep.

You're got to watch where you walk since cars and buses don't stop for you, the air is pretty terrible, and there are tons of people smoking, but it's awesome! I got this fortune cookie during my dinner on the flight and it couldn't be more true! This trip is going to be great on both continents.  :-)
