Easter

 We had our annual complex egg hunt the Friday before Easter.  It must not have been a good day for it because not very many people came, but we still had fun- and since we had more eggs than ever my kids got to find a ton!


 Our Easter bunny comes Saturday morning.  The kids got stuffed bunnies, chocolate bunnies and small Book of Mormons with bags they could decorate to be their scripture holders


 We tried a few new things with dying eggs this year.  The first batch i tried to cook in our veggie and rice steamer, I did not cook them long enough, so they turned out to be very soft boiled and only good for coloring.  Then Devon cooked another batch and we colored them with Kool-Aid, which worked really well and I don't think I'll buy another egg kit, the colors were bright and smelled good too.

 We just let Carrie do one egg since she liked to continuously drop it in the dye and smash it with a spoon, she also stuck with yellow dye to minimize damage.

 I have not really bought Easter clothes before, but the girls Easter dresses are so cute i couldn't resist.  The kids were not into getting their picture taken and poor Devon had to do it on his own since i had morning meetings.  This is the week after Easter too since Easter was on General conference weekend.
