Easter 2009

We had been making quite a few trips to Utah this month, so we decided to stay home for Easter this year. It was a lot of fun. Saturday morning, the girls got up early so we could go to an Easter egg hunt at the park. Even though it was quite chilly outside, they insisted on wearing their new shorts.

We went to Ross Park to find some eggs, but it was a bit of a waste of time. There weren't a ton of eggs, and we waited around in the cold for an hour. Each girl only got four eggs and each egg only had a tootsie roll or smarties in it. Well, we are used to the Tremonton Easter egg hunt, were you get full size candy bars for every egg you pick up. The girls still enjoyed it though, and Ally didn't give up. She kept hunting for eggs after all the other kids had stopped!


The next day was Easter Sunday, and we have early church, but the girls had to quickly see what the Easter bunny had filled their baskets with.



I caught Bayley with her eyes closed.


Then we headed to church, so we could all be reminded what Easter is really all about. The girls all looked very pretty in their new Easter dresses.

When we got home from church, we were talking about being ressurected, and Ally asked "Why isn't Grandpa Max ressurected?" It was cute. We had to explain that Jesus was the only one that was ressurected after three days. It is nice to know that she was thinking about it though.

After lunch, we colored some eggs, and a little later when it got warm outside, we decided to go outside for another little Easter egg hunt that Jeff threw together for the girls. This one was more successfull and the girls had a blast.








We had a great Easter and hope you all did too!
