Easter Fun!

I love this time of year, to reflect on what our Savior did for us! Because of him I have a beautiful family and a great husband! I am truely greatful for His atoning sacrifice for me.

We had a great weekend! We colored easter eggs on Thursday. That gave us a new meaning to "color." We gave Alyxis one egg to play with and by the end she had it destroyed and color all over everywhere! It was all over the floor, the countertop, and themselves. Jaden was old enough to get what was going on and he had a blast. He colored the eggs and by the end he was blue from head to toe!

We woke up on Sunday and had a yummy breakfast and the kids got presents from their grandmas! The Easter bunny didn't come until after church (which is at 1:00)! We wanted to take Easter pictures, but by the time we got home from church the kids were both asleep. So we waited for them to wake up and Jaden was so excited that the Easter bunny finally came, and we forgot to take pictures. He loved collecting the eggs and he got all of them by himself. Alyxis just had fun playing with the eggs! My mom made Lyxi's easter dress and it was so cute! (Grandma Chris got her a beautiful dress that she wore prior to Easter, but in our hast to do everything we didn't get the picture taken:(

But here are a few pictures of our weekend!

I love that your kids are usually shirt-less because mine are often that way! Looks like Easter was a blast at your house!

I just read your comment about Jill. I did not know she is a runner, but I run past about 5 Ivory Homes billboards with her picture on it every day! I miss you!
