Easter Celebrations

It's been a week since Easter, but it has been a busy one.  The SUN came OUT!  So I cleaned out the garage, worked on the yard, and had so much energy for cleaning it was amazing.  So, this post is a week late.
Our Easter weekend was busy!  I had 2 clients on Saturday morning.  Then we attended a baptism, where I spoke to welcome a new sister into our Relief Society.  Then we had the Norton family Easter dinner/egg hunt at our house.  Then Libby, Grammy and I hurried back to the General Women's Meeting at the church.  Libby was fiercely opposed to the fact that she had to wear Sunday clothes 2x on a Saturday.  But she managed.
Sunday the bunny came in the morning and then after church we had some friends over for waffles and fried ham.  It was yummy and great company.
The crew, my kids and Jed and Rory, our "cousins"

I kept trying to get them to pause while they were hunting.  Some were more willing than others.


Victorious!  Sarah found all 22 of her eggs.  Maren loves to play Easter Bunny.


This picture of Grandpa Brion watching from inside is perfect.

Actual Easter morn.  Bunny ears!

The loot.  Walkie Talkies all around, a 4 square ball, Guess Who and Apples to Apples Jr.  (That's why they got apples in their baskets.)  And, note to self.  I am the only one who likes Cadbury mini-eggs around here.  So don't buy so many unless you want to eat them all yourself, Trish.  

This was my favorite thing the Easter Bunny brought.  They found the pieces in the eggs and put it together.  There was one missing piece (and a few extras) when they were done, but it made for a fun morning.  Definitely going to do this again!
