Better Late Than Never

I’ve had this post written for almost a week now. Someone interrupted my plans last week (more on that later…) and I never got it published.

We colored our eggs the Sunday before Easter, in preparation for  the busy week ahead. I absolutely LOVE colors. I don’t have a favorite- I just love color. Every color. I love different combinations of color. So dyeing Easter Eggs is some pretty major eye candy to me. Not to mention it is lots of fun to do. I love that it’s something we can all do together, no matter the age.

 

The annual reading of Oswald the Rabbit in Easterland was a hit as always.   

We had plans to take off for the long weekend (what we Utahns refer to as ‘Spring Break’) to go camping. We really wanted to do it- even with two birthdays and Easter thrown in there. But the weather was simply too cold to camp with kids, so we stayed home.

Friday, Randy took the three oldest on one last snowboard trip of the season. The younger ones and I had a fun afternoon playing with friends.

Easter morning, the kids found their baskets filled with some goodies- the best of all, season passes to a local waterslide!

Those darn eggs are getting harder and harder to find each year.

Our traditional silly string war was a blast! It took Emma a little while to figure it out, but once she did- look out! She showed no mercy!

We really enjoyed General Conference at home. The kids are getting so good at sitting and listening the whole time (Of course, we all needed something to help us focus.)

After conference, we headed to my parents’ for Easter dinner (all the while, Tyler basking in his birthday glory.)
