Our Little Easter Bunny!
Scott came into our room at 3 am just as excited as can be, "The Easter Bunny came mom!" Kevin explained that it wasn't time to get up yet and when he brought him back down to his dark room, they kicked an egg and Scott yelled, "What was that noise!? It was an egg I think!" Oh boy...needless to say they were pretty excited!
The Easter Bunny put gardening stuff in the baskets this year, plus a book for Ari
He even hid eggs all over in our backyard! (Luckily the snow just barely melted!)
Look how cold they look in this picture! We tried to convince them to wait until the sun was up...they waited until they ate breakfast, but it was still before 9 am and a bit cold. They were both wearing their new gardening gloves
Scott was trying to look out the "spotting scope" and kept saying, "Mom move out of the way! You are blocking the way" but really it was an egg- funny!
Here are some good smiling pictures of Arianna! (Good to know even when she's getting smothered by her sibs, she's still smiling)
We ate a yummy dinner with ham, funeral potatoes, rolls, etc. and the kids got to have lemonade in these fun glasses- totally a big deal to them! :)
Hailey after bathtime helping me make strawberry shortcakes for dessert. She loves to help me in the kitchen- it's our tradition.
All in all it was a fun Easter Sunday. It was different getting to listen to amazing conference talks on Easter Sunday- I loved it!
Our kids ate all 42 candy filled eggs (the Easter bunny was frugal though, only about 4 jellybeans in each-haha) by lunchtime and still managed to make it through the day with no sugar meltdowns- amazing! Oh yeah, and this is the FIRST time Scott has eaten m&ms and chocolate. He was pretty excited and even yelled across the street to the neighbors that now he can eat chocolate. Halloween is going to be really fun, I can tell already! No more picking through the candy and letting him have the 2 pieces that aren't chocolate. Fun fun!
