Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! We dyed eggs for FHE last Monday with Grandma Dottie. Jack LOVED it! I think he thought all that messy business was too good to be true & we'd make him stop so he kept dunking eggs as fast as he could!
Hannah & Nick were a little more meticulous in their dying. They did a beautiful job!

The Saturday before Easter we went to a neighborhood egg hunt with Aunt Keri & Uncle Mike! The kids had a great time. Jack especially loved picking up the eggs & putting them in his bucket! We got a lot of awesome treasures!
The Easter bunny didn't forget us this year. He brought some new church clothes, our baskets full of goodies & a new play table & chairs. (the kids broke the old one by trying to make it into a slide!)
He also did a great job of hiding the baskets. Hannah's was in the pan drawer!
Nick's was in the dryer!
& Jack's was in the coat closet! He covered his little mouth with his hands & just couldn't believe his luck! He was so excited!
Happy Easter everyone!

Hi Allie, What beautiful children in beautiful clothes! The Easter Bunny did a great job of hiding baskets in unusual places. You are so wise to have taken pictures at all the right times. Love, Mom

We love coloring easter eggs! Sawyer liked licking the eggs so he was done helping real fast. I actually told my kids this year that the Easter Bunny was not real so it was kind of sad but they totally still believe in Santa so we are good right...

What a fun Easter! I love your idea of hiding the baskets! But I guess I can't change now because the Easter bunny hasn't done that in the past, right? I guess I can tell them the Easter bunny changed, like in the movie Hop. haha Love how Jack was so excited...what a cute boy!

Our Easter bunny needs to get with it and start hiding my kid's Easter baskets ... that's such a brilliant idea, I don't know why our Easter bunny can't seem to grasp it? Our girls' Easter baskets are always just sitting there in plain view ... where's the fun in that, huh? Our white table and chairs kicked the bucket a few months ago (we had the same one as you guys, from Target) ... I thought of you guys as we hauled it out to the garage, wondering if your table set was still alive and kicking ... we now have Costco's version of a white table and chairs ... soooooo, we'll see what kind of a run we'll have with that? Miss you and your cute kids (and sometimes Keith, but mostly you and the kids ... not that Keith isn't great ... he's totally great ... but you know what i mean?) =)

Everyone is getting so big. We left the perfect Vegas weather and spent a cold a gloomy spring break in CA. It was fun to be with family though. We haven't done that in a long time. Come visit soon. We miss you!

I love Jack's reaction to finding his basket. What a cute boy! I guess we got the hiding basket idea from our Easter bunny growing up, he does that at our house too. Your kids are so grown-up in their Easter clothes.
