Happy Easter!

Easter is always a fun time. Weather for us on Saturday wasn't that great. It rained off and on all day, and it wasn't very warm. However, we still got a couple of Easter Egg hunts in. We started out with a ward Easter Egg hunt. We went to the Kaysville city one last year, and it was way too crazy. Too many people. The ward one was better. The kids each got ten eggs, and then they had hot chocolate and doughnuts. Yum, yum. That afternoon, Dave and I went to Jared's soccer game while the other kids stayed home. We got rained on, and we were really ready for it to be over, because we forgot umbrellas. Jared had fun, though.
In the evening, we went to Kathleen's house. We ordered pizza for dinner and decorated Easter eggs.
Luke is very proud of his egg.
Jared had a little, I mean big, accident with the green. Dave took him home to change. A couple years ago he had another incident with the dye. He had a drink that he was drinking while coloring his eggs. He accidently picked up the wrong cup and drank some Easter egg dye. It was so funny. We constantly remind him of it.
More coloring.
Michelle's first attempt. We only let her do one.
After coloring eggs, it was out to Kathleen's backyard for another Easter egg hunt.
Luke counting his eggs.
Heather is running for it.

Kaitlin made some Easter decorations with Legos.
Easter morning.
Michelle loved the candy. We had to get it all put away, because she would taste some, then put it back and go for more. We spent most of Easter at Dave's Mom and Dad's house and church, because it was their mission farewell. It was great to see all of the family. I will post pictures of that later when I get copies of the pictures.

Brooklyn loved the candy too. She kept asking me for a Tweet all day. She did not get to dye eggs!

When I look at you with all your kids...you look severely out numbered! I don't know how you do it. I'd throw myself on the floor, and give up. Looks like a happy Easter.
