Easter 2011

We had such a wonderful Easter weekend. My mom came from Washington! We went to two Easter egg hunts, one in Lindon and one in Provo. The kids found a lot of eggs, got a lot of candy, silly bands, and free crazy bread coupons to Little Ceasar's. There were also 30 grand prize eggs, but a couple hundred kids. Lydia found a grand prize egg though which got her a real pearl necklace from Goldsmith's Jeweler's. She loves it and wears it all the time.


After the hunt the kids made bunny hats...

went on the bouncy slide...

and got their faces painted!


Next we picked up Aunt Shannon, Uncle Danny, and Grandma Marsha (the girls loved having both grandma's around at the same time) and went to the tulip festival at Thanksgiving Point. It was beautiful and a lot of fun!





The kids' two favorite things there were the fountains in the secret garden, and rolling down a nice grassy hill.


We dyed eggs and went to bed so the Easter bunny could come and bring a nice basket of (more) goodies!


Easter morning the kids rushed to their baskets and found some fun toys as well as "Tangled"! We got dressed up in our Easter best and went to church. Then we had a great dinner with my aunt and uncle, my cousin and her family, my mom, Shannon, and Danny. We ate until we were stuffed and played some games. It was perfect and we created some wonderful memories. Best of all we were able to celebrate the rebirth that is spring and the resurrection of our Lord and Savior. I hope you Easter was just as wonderful!
