Easter 2012

We had a great Easter. On Saturday morning we went to Smiths and the kids participated in their candy grab. The isles are filled with candy and you just run down and put the candy in your baskets. Afterwards we went to Herriman Park and did the Easter egg hunt there. We haven't been in a few years because we normally go to Jakes work party, but he didn't have one this year. You go with your age group and when the fire engine sounds you run to get candy. There were WAY TOO MANY kids there. they each got a few things, but it was over within 5 seconds. Here is my rant. Easter egg hunts are for your children to have fun and if they get candy great, if they don't great, it is just candy. Parents need to teach their children that if they get nothing it is OK. Parents, need to let there kids have fun. Parents were grabbing there kids and running them onto the field, grabbing stuff and shoving it into there baskets, yelling at there kids to grab it. I say let them do what they want to do and just have fun!!!!!!

That night we dyed our easter eggs.

The Easter Bunny hid the easter baskets and hid the easter eggs for the kids to find in the morning. They each got a church outfit, a DS/Leapster game and candy. On Sunday night we went to my Mom's house and the kids did their scavenger hunt and easter egg hunt and we had a turkey dinner. It was a lot of fun.









We are sure thankful for the Ressurection of our Savior Jesus Christ. I am thankful for eternal families and the knowledge that Death is not the end.
