Today is the beginning of the Easter weekend. We decorated our eggs Friday night and the Easter bunny came while we were sleeping! We got up, hunted for eggs, and ate pancakes! Then the kids donned their new t-shirts and we headed to Grandma's for the annual Easter egg hunt.
The weather cooperated (we were doubting after our week of rain) and the sun was shining. Here are Teaghan, Raelynn, and Kirsten.
Isaac and Luke quickly found their eggs.
Each kid gets 24 eggs and their name egg.
Here is Luke and Lorna (well Lorna's side).
Sam did not hunt for eggs but here we caught him looking! And this is a shot of Raelynn and Ainzlee's head!
We were a small group this year. Here is Jesse looking for his name egg.
Grandpa was handing out money to the big kids who did not get a name egg with money in it! Thanks Grandpa!
Arlee and Stu and baby Baylee!
Hannah, Sam and David did not hunt for eggs this year. They are all growing up. After the hunt we went in and ate tacos and Grandma's yummy trifle.
Tomorrow we are looking forward to having Dad home on a Sunday morning. We are going to make resurrection rolls (found them on pintrest!) and fruit salad and eggs. I love doing the whole egg and Easter bunny thing on Saturday because then we are really ready to leave it all behind and celebrate the real reason we have Easter. Looking forward to going to church with my whole family (Sam has a Sunday off! and Hannah is going to visit our ward!) and listening to Rob sing. Loved having conference last weekend and then this week off for spring break and now we get to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior. We are truly blessed. Millie
