Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter this year (except the speaking in church part). Saturday afternoon Ethan and Emily had an egg hunt with their cousins and the neighbors across the street. After hiding 130 candy filled eggs we let the kids go and they had a great time! Here are some picture of all the fun.


Here are the kids all dressed up in their Easter clothes before church! They looked so cute!



I hope that everyone was able to take a few moments and ponder the reason for this holiday. Although I hate speaking in church, I must admit that it was nice to spend the week reading and studying about Jesus Christ and the atonement and ressurection. It made me really remember and focus on what Easter is really all about. I hope your Easter was as great as ours!

The kids look so precious in their Easter outfits. I'm impressed with the 130 eggs. I'm sure all the kids had a blast at that egg hunt. I love the last picture. Emery's smile warms my heart every time.

Cute Easter outfits. Samantha got a beautiful dress for her Baptism so I was counting that for her Easter outfit. Instead she decided to wear her dress from last year, which was a little too small. Our church is now at one so you would think I would have had a chance to help her change her mind, but it was a busy day so she went to church that way and I never took any pictures of her.

Your kids look so sweet in their little outfits. I know, looks can be deceiving. Sorry about the need for spanks... that always puts a kink in the holiday.
I do have to admit though, I'm a little jealous that yall have grass! We are still under snow and ice... at least till it turns to mud.
Glad you had a happy easter and remembered the reason for the season.
