Easter

So, you can see how horrible I've been at the blogging thing these days...just now posting about Easter. It took the kids reminding me over and over again that they get on here to look at new pictures but I haven't posted any. So this is for you...my sweet children!!! Enjoy!!!

Here's the kids in their Easter dress. Aren't they so cute?!?!

Annual easter egg hunt at Grandma L's house with all the cousins. She fills the eggs full with candy and quarters. The kids look forward to it every year.

















Easter morning is the same tradition every year at our house. The easter bunny hides the kids baskets to make the fun last a little longer. For Matthew it always lasts the longest....long enough that he starts to get mad and gives up. Guess the Easter bunny should quit trying to make his impossible to find ;o)

Gracie found hers under Daddy's car. She loved the hoolahoop!


Ellie's was hidden in the freezer. She got some jump ropes like the ones she plays with at school and is loving those! Much more durable.

Zach's was in the back seat of the van. He got a BYU door hanging basketball hoop.

And finally...Matthew's was hidden behind the wheelbarrow. I think it took him about 45 minutes to find his. He got a BYU baseball and bat. (Trying to broaden his choices for sports. Don't think it's going to work though, he loves football!!!!)

So it really does work!!! I printed off some conference packets for the kids to do during General Conference and they sat and did them the entire morning session. I've even had them tell me things they remembered that was said by the speakers. I'm so impressed and very proud of them!!!


We spent Easter dinner at Josh's parents. Grandma B put on another easter egg hunt for the kids and they we were able to enjoy the weekend with Josh's Uncle Doc and Aunt Annie and their kids Mitch and Taylor from Australia. Notice Mitch and Taylor's red hair....now I know where Gracie gets her beautiful red hair, comes down through the Australian blood line.




Josh and he's favorite Uncle Doc and his wife Annie. They wanted me to take the picture if front of the mountains. They thought they were so beautiful! (don't have the mountains down under;o)
