Easter

 We got some eggs dyed, yay! Graham wasn't that into it, and it was quick, BUT we did them. We also learned which dye kit NOT to buy next year.
 This picture was for Jared. He was showing his Dada what was inside the egg.
 A tractor, a tractor, a tractor!!!
 Beatiful little Charlie. She is a mellow child, and oh so sweet. I love her pooh bear legs always up in the air.
 River caught ruffus the rooster at the Paradise Egg Hunt. Graham was so interested, but didn't want to get too close to him. This crazy hen(he turned out to be a she) let the kids push her around in this bucket all night.





 I love how out of place I look in the sister picture. Katie and Stacie look like they are posing for jcrew.

 Grandma Marges was full on fun and people. We are up to a family of 48 now!
Graham found his basket at Gma Vickies and Papas on the slide. He went straight for the tractor, duh.

When KC and the girls were in town. We had a little Easter celebration over and Brett and Connies. We did a short, sweet little lesson about Jesus and used "resurection rolls". It was such a special moment for me, as I was teaching them about Jesus. While the rolls were cooking we all sang soft primary songs, and it was amazing the sweet spirit that was there. There is something so special about the spirit and wonderment of children. I will never forget Olivia's face when she saw the roll empty, symbolizing the empty tomb. I am so grateful for the little learning moments children give us. It is something I look forward to doing every year from here on out. What an opportunity for all us to remember what Easter is all about.
