The day before Easter I went to get all the eggs out and the kid's Easter baskets and I couldn't find them anywhere. I know that I didn't throw them away, so I am sure they are around here somewhere. But since I couldn't find them we had to go and pick out new baskets for the kids and buy some new eggs to fill with candy for the Easter Bunny. I was very glad that I didn't wait until Sunday to look for those things because I would have been in big trouble with no eggs or baskets for the kids.
We got the kids all ready for church and after they were all dressed and got their pictures taken, the Easter Bunny visited out house.
The kids were so excited when they saw that the Easter Bunny came and quickly got their Easter baskets to go find some eggs.
Megan got to go out first to start getting eggs, but Josh and Tyler followed quickly behind her. I kept telling Tyler to get the higher eggs and let Megan get the easy eggs, but then at the end I saw Josh had double the eggs that Tyler or Megan had. I should have been telling Josh to let Megan get them and not worried so much about Tyler. Lucky for everyone I just put all the eggs and treat together in one bowl so everyone gets some of everything.
We had a good talk about the true meaning of Easter and the resurrection of Jesus Christ on Saturday night before the kids went to bed. It was really neat to hear Tyler talk about what he had learn about Jesus and want happened after he died.
Later that day we went to Tony's parents where we had dinner and another egg hunt. Tony's mom had it where each kid had a color and that is the egg that they needed to find. They all had such a good time finding their eggs. It is so much fun to be with family and our kids LOVE their cousins. They are so lucky to have so many cousins who live close. We all had a great Easter and felt very loved by our family.
