With me being sick and tired (gotta love pregnancy!) Easter was low-key this year. Don't mention it to the girls or they'll immediately tell you that we STILL haven't colored our Easter eggs!
A couple days before Easter, we made some rice krispy treat nests - some for us and some for the women I visit teach. A fun project! (Cora was napping.)
Easter weekend was also General Conference - so super busy! And throw in a soccer game for Eve to round things out. We started Saturday with a brunch and egg hunt at the Seegmiller's house with lots of other friends!
Eve, of course, surrounded herself with the little kids :)
Time to hunt!
Cora did great this year!
So proud of her eggs!
And Abigail found one of the two prize big eggs! She spotted it way up in a tree and Daddy picked her up to retrieve it!
Sugar-high and chocolate face on the way home!
Followed by a conference nap - she was too cute! I couldn't put her down!
That night, we put out our baskets for the Easter bunny!
And bright and early on Sunday morning, Eve and Halle were up and searching. They'd already found Halle's, Abigail's, and Cora's by the time I got up, but had luckily left them where they were.
Eve's took the longest to find!
So happy for fun ways to celebrate Jesus' resurrection!
Sugar coma!
Cinnamon rolls for breakfast. Too bad I only made two pans....what about the rest of us???
Abigail was eating treats as fast as we'd let her and was very upset when the answer to, "Can I please have a jolly ring toss?" was 'no'.
Later, we found her licking all the frosting off the remaining cinnamon rolls. When she got in trouble, she said through her tears, "But it was just so good!"
I attempted a fancy Easter dinner that totally backfired. Hours of work for only mediocre results. Included instant pot ham that exploded everywhere when I vented the steam (after letting it sit for like 30 minutes first!). Huge mess and fussy mommy. But we survived.
We love our Savior and we love Easter!
