Easter Weekend

 We always love dyeing eggs on Good Friday.  Everyone has fun and we also discuss and remember what happened on that day to make it so good.

 This boy was in heaven!  He has this strange fetish for eggs! And being able to dye them blue is just icing on the cake.

 Then after we dye eggs we like to have egg nose races. 

 The girls then decorated the house with them.  I thought they looked pretty cute.  But I had to put them away before our house started smelling like rotten eggs!

 Now for the event that my kids have been waiting two years to attend, Grandma Rappleye's Epic Easter Egg Hunt!

 Here's Grandma giving instructions before the big hunt.

 Blank stares are always a good sign!  LOL!

 Sofia didn't waste any time. 

 Neither did Myla!

 Will got to find orange eggs. 

 Ava was showing me her eggs, but in this pic it looks like an empty bucket!

 Will was so excited to find a blue egg which was one of the fun extras so he got to keep it.

 These little girls loved these larger than life bunnies.

 I really appreciate all my mom's thoughtful work and preparation that she puts into this super fun eggstravaganza!  My kids love it and so do I! 

 On Easter morning we had a nice relaxing time, enjoying Easter baskets, stuffing ourselves sick with conference morning breakfast and getting ready for conference.

 We all had heaps of fun with Will's remote control car until conference started. 

 When conference started we did some of our favorite activities, Conference bingo and draw the speaker. 

 I think Ava's drawing was pretty close to a perfect likeness. 

Easter weekend was a wonderful weekend spent with family, hearing uplifting messages from inspired prophets and apostles and remembering our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and the endless second chances He made possible for each of us.
