Happy Easter!


We enjoyed a BEAUTIFUL Easter weekend, which was such a refreshing change from the rain and sleet we've had to endure on previous Easters. We celebrated in all kinds of ways, including a few Easter egg hunts, dying Easter eggs, as well as the arrival of the Easter Bunny! Easter has always been one of my favorite holidays, and it was even better to get to celebrate over Conference weekend too. Despite the candy that was somehow finding its way into my children's bellies all weekend long, I hope we helped them remember why Easter really is so special.

Our little Spring Chicken toddling around at the Easter egg hunt.

Lucy ready with her bucket!! The anticipation was killing her!

Daddy helped Zach find the tricky eggs that were hidden too high for the other kids. Imagine his jubilation when he discovered there was candy in them!!

Mmmmmmm. Enjoying the spoils of victory!!

Lucy got her Tiana doll (from Princess and the Frog) from the Easter bunny and played with her all morning before Conference started.

Zachy with his chipmunk cheeks FULL of chocolate!! He got 4 Reeses peanut butter cups crammed in there before I could stop him-- foil and all.

And here's "Trouble" fast asleep. He's turning 1 tomorrow, so check back soon for his birthday extravaganza!!

What a fun Easter you all had! Luce seems to be a pro at the Easter Egg Hunt, while Zachy seems to have a natural instinct for finding treats. Darling pictures of both of them!

I love the Easter pictures. I can't believe how cute Zachy is when he walks. I can't wait to see both the kids and tell Zachy happy birthday in person. Can you believe it has been a year?
