Happy Easter!


We had a good Easter today.  We all went to church and Megan sang up on the stage for the first time today.  She did pretty good.  She didn't remember all the words, but she did remember some.  Josh sang a little and Tyler got up there and tried not to cry the whole time.  He's such a funny kid.  He knows the songs and wants to go up and sing, but then he gets up there and see all the people and starts to get nervous so then he cries.  That poor kid is full of big emotions that he doesn't know how to control.
After church the Easter bunny came.  The kids were all so excited to collect the eggs.  We went youngest to oldest.  The top picture shows Allie climbing out the door backwards while the other kids waited for their turn.  Such cute kids.
After they found all of the eggs we had the kids sit on the porch with their baskets for a picture.  Of course it is impossible to get all four kids smiling at one time, but we sure did try.  They had so much fun finding all the eggs.
A few hours later we went to the Steenblik's for dinner.  It is so nice to be with family, especially on the holidays.  We had a yummy turkey dinner and then the kids got to have another fun Easter egg hunt.  The kids got spoiled with lots of yummy treats by grandma Margie.
After all that fun we went over to my parents house to visit the Blackwell's who were visiting on their way to Texas.  It was so much fun to see them and spend some time with them before they move to Texas.  My kids loved playing with their five boys and were bummed when it was time leave.  It was such a nice Easter with family! Such a nice time of year to remind us of the resurrection of our Savior.  He lives!
