Easter 2012


We have had a busy spring.  Easter was great.  On Saturday we went to an egg hunt with the FRG.  They are really good about separating the kids by age.  Shaden and Jayce were so excited and ready to go.  (I have been a bit scatter brain lately and forgot to bring baskets, so they had to make do with plastic bags.)  It was pretty chilly, but the boys didn't seem to mind.


On Sunday we went to church before having any Easter candy, but you would have thought the boys had a bucket of it before hand.  Shaden was bouncing off the walls in anticipation.  Our Sacrament meeting was wonderful.  The youth sang a beautiful song at the beginning that brought tears to my eyes.  


After church we went up to my parents' house and the Easter Bunny brought baskets filled with toys and candy.  Both boys got Leappads and eggs filled with candy.  The Easter Bunny was thinking of my sanity when deciding to give them the Leappads. Shaden and Jayce keep stealing my iphone to play the games on it.  Then I have a hard time finding it when I need it.  Now they have their own cool thing with games (and I don't have to worry that they are going to be trying to buy stuff or delete things).
I'm really impressed with the Leappad.  Shaden actually gets excited to use a pen (stylus) to write letters on it.  That is a big win!  




We also dyed eggs and tried to tattoo them.  I wouldn't recommend tattooing already colored eggs... all the dye kept running off and on to my hands.

The sun was shining and we had dinner outside on the deck.  It was a very nice day.
