Happy Easter

Well this year was the coldest easter I think I have had since I have had kids. We had to have an indoor easter egg hunt since we had too much snow still left from the last storm. It was weird since Easter was in April this year and it was colder than it had been in March. It seems like mother nature got the months mixed up. We woke up yesterday to another 4 or more inches.

Here is a picture of the kids anticipating Easter back in March before all the snow, This chalk drawing showed up on our driveway and the kids were convinced that the Easter bunny had stopped by to draw a picture of himself. They came up with that one all on their own.












Here is Kate's version of the Easter bunny.






Here is Beck's Easter Bunny.





We decided to make some Easter treats cookies and rice crispys. Kate said decorating the cookies was funner than Disneyland. Kids are easy to please.












we even tried some chocolate covered ones.

Here are Kate and Beck with their favorite eggs. They had a lot of fun with the monster eggs and now they want to use the left overs to decorate pumpkins in the fall.












It was a nice Easter and the kids didn't seem to mind the indoor egg hunt. We had a nice family home evening about the true meaning of Easter and it is amazing how much they pick up and remember at such a young age. We also have been reading 3 Nephi in the book of mormon. Kate asked me if people will still celebrate birthdays after they die and are resurrected? It is funny how kids interpret everything according to how it impacts them.
