Wow! This Easter just snuck up on me. I was such a slacker and hadn't done anything to prepare so Adam and I had to get really creative to pull things together at the last minute.
Friday, we decorated our eggs...
soo cute.
We then went out to dinner and took the girls to the store where we just followed them around to see what they paid attention too. That night we came home and called the Easter Bunny just in time to tell him what the girls wanted. What started out as a "Crap, what are we going to do for Easter" ended in one the funnest and busiest Easters ever...
1st -Saturday morning was the big Ivins City easter egg hunt. We had decided not to go this year because it was right during General Conference, but then we reliezed that Sadie had to be to that same park at the exact same time for Tennis, so we set our TiVo and we went to the Ivins Hunt (Hunt #1) After the hunt we decided to go and check out the Arts Festival. After the Art's Festival we ran to the store where we did strategic shopping with Adam keeping the girls busy while I grabbed some last minute Easter Ideas. After shopping we headed to the park with my family where my mom had her annual Feast and Easter egg hunt. (Hunt#2)
The kids hunting for their goodies!
All the cousins going through their loot!
Grandma and Grandpa always spoil them..they got tickets to Tarzan at Tuacahn, $10.00, bubbles, Windmills and lots of candy. The adults always get spoiled too, we had an Easter egg hunt of our own...woo hoo!
Sunday morning, before Conference we got the girls up to see if the Easter Bunny had found them. They were very excited with another hunt (hunt #3) and more loot.
Calli got the new "How to Train your Dragon" DS game.
Sadie got some puppies in your pocket.
And Gentry got a My Little Pony bath toy.
They also each got a new bike helmet, flipflops, bubbles and The princess and the frog movie.
The Easter Bunny even brought Adam and I some stuff. I got New Moon and some flip flops and Adam got new seat covers for his truck.
After the hunt we watched Conference while Adam made a very huge, yummy breakfast.
After both sessions of Conference we had Hunt #4 with Adam's family. Adam's dad and Marilee invited "His and Her's" families to celebrate together. This was the first time we have gotten together for a Holiday. It was fun getting to know each other better. After we all ate we had 2 more Easter egg hunts. Again, one for the kids and then one for the adults. I am feeling pretty spoiled and completly blessed this Easter. (Maybe I'll procrastinate again next year..it all seemed to work out great!)
Hope everyone had a very Hoppy Easter!
