Easter

For us Easter always starts a little early. We start with the church egg hunt, then Grandma Nana's the day before and then our house the day of. We had a blast at our annual egg hunt at our friends house for church. The kids look forward to it every year and it gets them ready for whats to come. Then it was off yesterday to grandma Nana's. She always seems to out do herself. One day I hope to be able to throw a party like her. We had LOTS of friends and family there. We had a wonderful spread of food to eat. She had a bounce house there for the kids (and the kids at heart). Then some of the adults snuck out to the front to hide all 150 eggs. The kids were let loose and boy did they run to find all the eggs. After all papers were exchanged for the proper prizes the kids got their chance at a pinata. My kids were exhausted after a fun day, but every minute was worth it! Today we had a brunch at our house with more family and friends. We enjoyed visiting and getting more candy of course. After brunch the kids were again turned loose to the back yard for another egg hunt. After all was cleaned up and everyone left daddy and mommy couldn't resist a nice afternoon nap while all the kids surveyed and compared all their loot!

We are so grateful for the chance to spend time with our family and friends. we are especially grateful to celebrate our Savior on this special day.
