Easter Recap

We had a great Easter weekend! I hope everyone else out there did too! I got to spend time with my family, my new niece, my in-law's who are leaving on a mission today, and others I don't get to see very often. It was kind of crazy and hectic and stressful, but it was good. We had an Easter egg hunt for the girls and Q on Saturday, and they had a blast. It was cold and windy, but they didn't seem to notice. Then the Easter Bunny came Saturday night and left in his wake a LOT of jelly beans! Everywhere! He also left a note telling the kids not to forget the real reason for Easter: Jesus Christ and his Resurrection. I have no idea where the idea of the Easter Bunny hiding eggs came from. Anyone know? I sure would like to be able to tell my kids the real story.

Cute little new niece!

I love spending time with family, and am glad we had that opportunity!
I hope everyone had a great Easter! Happy week! :)

Girls, girls! Everywhere I look there are girls!!! LOL! They are all so incredibly adorable. Little Q is lucky to be the little man in the midst of all the femininity.

Your girls are so cute! Great dresses!
I have a cute little Easter Egg Hunt idea that is about the Savior, I'll email it to ya. It helps kind of combine the two.
