Bunny Day!


Dyeing the Eggs
 The Beginning of our Easter Festivities, we colored eggs. Which Aty Loved! A little too much actually. She kept wanting to do More and More, and she was making me crazy, grabbing the color and almost spilling it all over. We survived though, with not too much, coloring on the counter. After that,  we headed over to the church to have a neighborhood night time, egg hunt. The kids thought that was really fun, trying to find eggs in the dark with their flashlights. Aty especially like running around with her little friend Avery, shining her flashlight.

The boys and their treasures
This year the Bunny left a candy trail for each one of them to follow, that lead to their basket and treasures. He really tricked the boys. He hid their baskets under their beds, which was where the candy path started, not ended. Haha!

My Favorite Part of Easter
 The Pictures!

This is what happens when I set the timer and run. I barely get in.

My Handsome Boys!

My Sweet, Beautiful Baby Girl
(whom did not like getting her picture taken that day)

I tried taking some of them outside, but it turned into a jumping party instead

Me and My Love

After Church we went over to my Sister's house in Kaysville for dinner. Grandma and Grandpa came. They brought easter eggs for the kids to find.

After three Easter eggs hunts, Aty was a pro!

Daxton and Tregan forgot their jackets, so they borrowed my nephew's Zacks. Daxton really liked this jacket, that is why he is posing all suave! He has been begging me to get him a jacket like it, for days now.
It turned out to be a fun Easter day. My boys were starting to question the Easter bunny and how he could possibly walk on two feet. I am not sure if they were convinced or not. I am sad for those days to be over.  I am holding on to them for as long as I can.  Sacrament was a little chaotic with trying to keep Aty entertained and keep the boys from fighting each other. Oh the Joys!! But I did feel the spirit, and I was grateful for our savior and his resurrection. We had a lesson the night before, that I had actually prepared for my sunbeam class. I filled 12 Easter Eggs full of different things representing the death and resurrection of Jesus. They had to taste vinegar, which they did not want to do! It was very neat to hear so many lessons, and talk about Jesus and his resurrection, since I am in the primary. My boys both came home talking about it again. It is nice to have them be old enough now, to talk about and understand it now. And for them to grasp what a huge sacrifice this was for him. I am so grateful for our savior! And for my Sweet children and husband!
