Easter

We spent Easter in Idaho again this year. It is always fun to go and visit my family. It is a big trip now packing for 6 for just a few days but it is always worth it. We let the kids color Easter eggs last Thursday night. They absolutely loved it. Reagan and Kairi were double and triple dying their eggs... most of their eggs turned out pretty well. Camden and Dane just wanted to keep dunking their eggs. Dane even decided to try drinking it! Crazy Dane! No major spills happened though. On Easter morning we woke up and had breakfast, let the kids go through their Easter baskets and then we had to get ready for 9 o'clock church. Reagan was pretty upset that there weren't any eggs to get. We didn't want to do the egg hunt until after church so we wouldn't be late. So, we had the Easter Bunny write a not explaining when the egg hunt would happen. That satisfied her for awhile. We went to church and then came home and waited for Dane to come over for the hunt. Alan and Bryce had hidden the eggs. So, about 12:30 they started finding eggs. They had a blast! Dane was using his chin and every other part of his body that he could to gather eggs. Reagan took off running getting as many as she could. We had to remind her that there were younger people that still needed to gather eggs. Kairi and Camden had a great time finding eggs too. When they emptied their candy I was amazed at how much fits into eggs. We had way too much candy! What a fun tradition we have started with out kids. On Monday, after we got home, we talked about the reason we celebrate Easter. The girls were really receptive. We have great girls that are learning so much about the gospel. I can see that they will be teaching me many things.
























Camden and Dane wanted to eat all the candy that came out of their eggs.
