Easter continues...

The Easter bunny is pretty smart and seems to find us no matter where we spend our Easter. The girls got some fun new outfits, finger paints, coloring books, and of course some PEEPS. They always have fun with their new things. I think I need to start getting an Easter basket of my own.

Easter 2009

Yes, I know I am soooo far behind on the pictures. I didn't want to miss blogging about all of our fun though.

We went to visit my husbands family this year for Easter. We usually do. It is a great time to go there for a visit. The girls always have fun doing an easter egg hunt out in the desert. They have just as much fun climbing on the rocks when they are done.

Grandma R. made a fun Easter egg pinata. The girls had a fun time "cracking" the egg with their cousin.

3 days of Easter fun...

We had an interesting Easter this year. We decided to spread out the fun over 3 days instead of one.

On Friday we headed out to the desert to have a little picnic, and in Grandma R fashion...an Easter egg hunt. Grandma R is the Queen of Easter egg hunts. She loves them. It is sad that she missed this one. The girls had a fun time. Dad learned that he can't hide the eggs quite so hard!

Little H didn't get to hunt for eggs, but she had fun watching the sisters.

We e-mailed the Easter bunny this year and asked him if he would start coming on Saturday, so we could spend more time on Sunday talking about Jesus and the Resurrection.
The Easter bunny always hides the girls baskets. It took them awhile to find them this year. The older the girls get the harder it gets to find their baskets. They got a fun new spring outfit and these cool shades along with some Easter candy.
Saturday afternoon we had fun decorating some boiled eggs. The girls were having so much fun that we dyed some more eggs too. We could have gone completely crazy and dyed all 6 dozen eggs we had in the fridge, but we contained our excitement and only dyed one dozen.
I guess we were having too much fun and excitement because by Sunday morning all the girls were flipping out, over emotional, and uncooperative, so this is the only picture we got of them in their new Easter dresses.

Sunday slipped by too fast and we didn't do some of the things we had planned, so we may be doing Easter stuff for Family Home Evening tonight too. I think 4 days of Easter will just about wear me out!

I hope you all had a Happy Easter!
