Easter

We had a terrific Easter Sunday. The Easter bunny came while we were asleep and hid eggs in the back and house for Hayden, Logan and Victoria and hid them in the front yard for the teenagers.

The kids scored with a ton of eggs each. I think the bunny left over 300 eggs and about half were filled with money. The kids were in heaven. Hayden only wanted the eggs with toys and money, he could have cared a less about the candy.

He was funny... he loved his Easter basket but in it was the new Hannah Montana soundtrack. Look at his face as he pulled it out, not amused. Oh well, Taylor really liked it. He did get tons of things he loved, including a how to draw bugs book for Ann to help him with art.



The girls got new purses for their baskets filled with girly things. Hair supplies, nail polish, lip gloss and new shirts. They also loved their new Easter dresses.


It was a fantastic day and we are so grateful for Easter. I have loved this Easter celebration. Mostly because I think Thomas and I were really able to relate the atonement to Hayden and the girls this year.

This was one of my most meaningful Easters. I took the time to study the atonement and really tried to apply its message in my life. I am so thankful for this time of year when we can celebrate the reason our Savior came to earth and to help us more fully understand the importance and mission of our Savior's life.
