Easter Weekend Part 1

Friday night we dyed our eggs just in time for the Easter bunny to come the next morning.  

He hid eggs around the living room and left a string for us to find our baskets.

After we found our own baskets we went to the Bountiful Tabernacle for a fun Easter Egg Hunt and we even got to see the Easter bunny.  I was SHOCKED that Andrew ran up to him and gave him a huge hug!  (Andrew is usually VERY reserved around new people and in new situations).

Easter Dinner

We had a wonderful Easter dinner at mom and dad's house Sunday night.

Mom always sets the table so cute.

I LOVE these dishes.  These are the dishes mom and dad got for their wedding!

And I LOVE daisies! 

She made cute Easter gift bags for ALL of the grand-kids!

The yummy dinner!! 

We had a little Easter Egg hunt after dinner.

Happy Easter!!

Easter Egg Hunt and Playing at the Park

Saturday morning we took the kids to an Easter Egg Hunt.

We had a lot of fun!

The Easter Bunny was there, but the line to see him was too long.

So, we took the kids to the park instead.

Finding the Easter Baskets.

Saturday morning, when the kids woke up, we found that the Easter Bunny had come.  He left a long string of yarn that led to our baskets.  The kids had fun following the yarn around the yard to find their baskets.

Alphabet Dates--"E Date"

Darin had the day off from ETRADE, so we dyed EASTER EGGS.
Next we decided to EAT an EXCELLENT EDIBLE dinner then END the EVENING by watching the EMPEROR'S New Groove.

Because Of Him

Happy Easter!
I am so thankful for this Easter Season.
I am especially thankful to my Savior, Jesus Christ.

Because of Him I can live again.
Because of Him death has no sting, the grave no victory.
Because of Him, I can start again, and again, and again.
Because of Him I have second chances and new beginnings.

Happy Easter!

On Saturday we found out that our neighbors got some new cute baby chicks.

When we went over to see them, we also saw that they had three cute bunnies.

How could I pass up baby chicks and a bunny the week of Easter?

I just HAD to do a mini photo shoot with my kids!

It was a quick session because it was cold and windy and Andrew kept squishing the animals, 

but I do think they came out pretty cute!

Happy Easter!!
