EASTER

This year for Easter we headed down to Grandpa and Grandma Smith's house. Grandma always makes such a big deal out of holidays so it is so fun for the kids to be there with her. Aaron was wishing we were in the warm weather but was o.k. once he realized that wasn't really feasible.
In the morning the Easter Bunny hid the baskets and some eggs for the kids to find.
One quick picture before the kids head down the stairs to find the goods.
Everyone in their Easter outfits. It was General Conference so the kids just had regular clothes, not church ones.
They all had a good time finding the eggs and an even better time finding their baskets.....
Madi's basket was in the cupboard.
The good stuff for her in her basket.
Porter's basket was in the dishwasher.

The good stuff for Porter in his basket.
Ry's basket was in the entertainment center.

The good stuff for Ry in his.
Brayden's basket was in the oven.
Brayd and his treats.
The kids all got playing cards with their picture on the back of them. They all seemed to think they are pretty cool!
Mine was on top of the entertainment center and consisted of yogurs covered pretzels and raisin, and a good book:).

Aaron got me some cute flowers too!
Aaron's basket was on top of the cupboards in the kitchen

After all the baskets had been found we had a quick breakfast and settled in to watch conference. Conference weekend is always nice and relaxing! The talks are always good and it is amazing how most of the talks seem to fit just what is going on in my life. The only problem is that the men's voices are all so soothing that most end up asleep.....

Aaron,Chase, and Tay..
During the second session Madi joined in on the fun and cuddled next to Chase for a little nappy-nap.
After Conference was over Grandma Smith played some more games then gave all the kids balls.

Easter Time is great! Pretty low key but still a good excuse to reflect on Christ and get together with family.
There is Porter!
HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!!
