EASTER!

And here we are at Easter!  Our new awesome neighborhood and a fun little egg hunt in one of the empty dirt lots!  The girls were sooooooo excited to get some CANDY!











Later that day, we headed over to Grandpa George and Marty's for some food and another egg hunt.  While we were there, the girls just had to check out his new chicks.  Apparently, Lu decided the babies weren't as fun as the big ones and took off after them--no fear!  Sadly, we have no pictures of that!

EASTER MORNING!!!
The girls woke up pretty stoked to see what the Eastery Bunny had left them...Don't you just LOVE our morning looks?  The girls have taken to wearing one of mine or daddy's t-shirts for nightgowns and E.T. is ALWAYS a hit at our house so it is win-win!



Happy little Miss Joy!

Later that day...

My dad, stepmom and two little brothers were in town that weekend and later we hit up Nana and Papa's house for a BBQ/ and ANOTHER Easter egg hunt.
All the kids getting ready for the main event!  As usual, Nana and Papa went ABOVE and BEYOND and there were TONS of prizes for all the kids!



Check out Mae's loot!
We had such a WONDERFUL Easter weekend with our wonderful family!  Spending time with them makes me especially grateful of the Savior's sacrifice for us all.  A few days before Easter, we were getting ready for FHE where we'd be watching the Resurrection story and Coby and I were explaining it to the girls beforehand at dinner.  When we explained how Jesus died and then came back to life, Mae exclaimed, so proud of herself, "Just like Frankenstein!"  We laughed our heads off with that.  Later while thinking about it again, I decided while I am not so sure about the comparison, I am so proud of my little Mae-Mae for understanding and interpreting what we were telling her about Jesus and the resurrection.  I love all my girls sooooooo much!
HAPPY EASTER!
