Ward Easter Party...


We hung out with our friends/neighbors at the party...their little boy Brayden is here with Bridger and Kenna!
Yesterday morning we decided it would be fun to take our kiddos to the ward Easter Party, Whitney and Dani came along too!  They served breakfast, had a nice little program, and then had an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids.  It was nice because the little kids were able to hunt for eggs inside, eliminating the cold and craziness of dealing with the big kids.  Each child was able to get 15 eggs, which was quite a lot I though...they also had good candy in them, so Bridger thought it was even more fabulous!  I love being able to take our kids to all the fun little celebrations for the holidays!

More to come...

I decided to cut my losses for the time being and skip right to Easter posts.  I will still work on updating the things I've missed...hopefully it won't get too confusing.  It's just hard to post because I try to do it when the kids are napping or asleep for the night...but then Josh is relaxing playing a game or watching a show so I can't hardly upload photos...kind of frustrating that our internet isn't faster.  If I get a chance tonight (I really hope I do) I will put up more pics of Easter festivities...if not, I will get it done tomorrow!! 

Hope everyone has had an amazing Easter.  I am so very grateful for the Ressurection and the knowledge that we will live with Him one day, well and whole.  I am so very thankful for all my blessings, especially for my Savior and his love for me.  Happy Easter to all!

Dyeing eggs...







This was the meltdown...awesome!!


We did the usual Easter Egg Dyeing...so fun!  Whitney and Dani were here with us for the Easter weekend, so they were able to help us color eggs.  We dyed 4 dozen eggs...that's a ton, isn't it?!  We needed a lot because I had to take a bunch of deviled eggs to Josh's grandma's the following day.  The egg dyeing started out great, but about half to two thirds of the way through, Kenna had a total melt down(all because I told her she couldn't have any candy)...so I paused the easter egg dyeing, got her in bed and resumed.  I am happy to report that my kids didn't spill any dye...but I did...awesome!  It stained a part of my table light pink, but it does seem to be fading fast!  Our eggs turned out fabulous!  I love Easter!

Nothing but sweet...



This is what I get when I want Kenna to pose cute for a picture...it starts out with her being totally goofy or yelling that she doesn't want to pose, then turns into crying/screaming, then trying to "be sweet"!  She sure is a firecracker, but is as cute as can be!
Bridger thought it was hilarious and wanted me to get a picture of him laughing...then he tried to give Kenna a kiss to make it all better!  Love my kids!

Sledding, Snowmobiling, and Snowmen...







Doesn't she look happy?!

Redneck snowman...complete with shotgun shells for the eyes, nose and mouth...we found them on the ground around our snowman!

Not much else to say...we all had a lot of fun together enjoying the snow!
