Our Happy Easter

The day before Easter we felt well enough to make it to the store so the kids could have a good Easter. Remember we were planning on being in Sunny California enjoying the nice sunshine and green grass and flowers. But we were still sick and had to settle for an Idaho Crisp brown Easter. Luckily for us or snow was gone but there are tons of dry leaves on the ground and it looks like fall and not spring. (If we were still living in St.Anthony we would still have snow. They got a ton of it this year.)
Here are the kids baskets. we were still in bed when the saw them. I heard their excitement but wasn't able to see it. Savannah love Dora. She has only seen it once or twice but she gets so excited ever time she sees something Dora. They each got a new place set and a move and a few eggs with chocolate inside which Savannah devoured.

She is definitely my little girl when it comes to chocolate. These flowers were given to me by my neighbor who just lost her husband. She is such a sweet lady. She just buried her sweetheart and she has been so worried about how we are doing. She brought me flowers and brought us dinner one night. She is amazing.

Anyway, so our Easter wasn't too bad. Jared was still very sick and the kids and I still had the awful cough. So we were unable to go to church. RJ and I were able to dye some eggs while Savannah and Daddy slept. RJ loved dying the eggs. Later nap time the kids discovered the Easter Bunny had left them some eggs to find. And then we had a nice Easter Cereal Dinner. And early bed time. How goes that Easter sound?






































He made a "golden" egg and a "fire" egg. Can you guess which ones those are?




































Savannah was really excited when she woke up from her nap and found all these color eggs on the table.

So glad you're all beginning to feel better. I was so looking forward to coloring Easter eggs with the kids. I'm glad RJ got to do it. The video is sweet. Love you all!

Savannah and RJ are getting so big! And Savannah is so cute! It looks like RJ had a blast coloring eggs. Hope you ALL are better soon.
