Easter 2016

Easter Sunday was a busy day-especially for Mommy. The choir was singing at church and Mommy had to teach Relief Society. I really wanted to get pictures before church, but Caleb wasn't feeling it, so this was the best we got. All four of them looked so cute in their new Easter outfits.

 After church, we went on a very special Easter walk up in Alpine. It was so peaceful and so special to go visit the empty tomb on Easter Sunday.


We went to Ma and Pa's house for dinner. The kids got to do another egg hunt. Caleb could have cared less about the eggs. He just wanted to play with all the balls. 

 We attempted pictures again, but had even less success than our morning pictures.










It was a lovely Easter weekend. We are so grateful for the special time we were able to spend together as a family and for the knowledge we have that our Savior lives and that we can be together forever.

We woke up the day before Easter to snow! Which made things extra cool because we could see the Easter Bunny tracks leading up to our house! The kids were so excited about that!
The kids woke up to a lot of fun things left by the Easter Bunny. He knew the kids had a special trip coming up because he left them a bunch of fun things for the long car ride and the trip. 


 They all got new hats for the beach!
 Caleb wasted no time on making a dent in his treats. Especially the peeps.



 Gwen joined Caleb in his early morning sugar fest.
 The Easter Bunny left an egg hunt for all the kids. They had fun finding all their eggs filled with goodies.








 It was a fun and happy morning!
They even got to harvest their jelly beans! Easter suckers grew where they planted their magic jelly beans. 






 Then Tessa got her suckers stuck in her hair.

Another favorite tradition we have around Easter, is planting jelly beans the night before the Easter Bunny comes. Something magical always happens to our jelly beans.
