Happy Easter

We had a nice Easter Day celebrating the gift that or Savior gave us of the atonement and resurrection. We have been blessed with so much and we would be very ungrateful if we didn't express or gratitude for the gospel of Jesus Christ!

  On Saturday, we went to or local Easter egg hunt. We were watching over Dusty and Megann's kids while they traveled to Burley, Id for a job interview for a principals position, which he got! But anyways, e had Lainey and Libby with us for the hint. The older girls and Eli went to their age group sections and I took Jordyn and Libby with me. The girls were perfectly fine, as seen in the first picture, but then the police car siren announced the start of the hunt and all craziness ensued. Jordyn started crying really bad and wouldn't let go of my leg. Poor Libby was startled so much that she cried too but I think her huntress instincts also kicked in cause she was running around grabbing eggs left and right. The families around us were really nice and saw that Jordyn didn't get any eggs and each gave her some. Very nice people! The same thing happened to Lexie and people gave her eggs too! Eli banked in his age group and so he shared some of his eggs with his slower fellow hunters. It's all about the sharing afterwards that makes it so nice!

On Sunday, we had a nice talk with the kids about the true meaning of Easter and then gave them gifts from us, the mom and dad, in hopes that they will think of the gift that our Heavenly Father gave us of His only begotten son! We then enjoyed a nice roast dinner. 

Meet sweet friend, Brenda, brought over a cute flower arrangement made out of cake balls and fondant. It was really nice of her and they tasted really good too!  She also made chocolate cupcakes filled with either a peanut butter or cream cheese filling....so good! I ate three of them....! If I normally did hash tags i would say something like #iamnotashamed or something like that.
