Easter 2008

We had a woderful Easter to spend with our family. The kids always love to see their Easter baskets in the morning. We went to church and was able to have the time to reflect on the Atonement of Jesus Christ. We had a very nice sacrament meeting with good talks and music. We were glad to have Nana, Grampy, and Uncle Chris at our house with us. We had a not so traditional dinner with the Roberts Axis Deer meat ( something just seems wrong that they were eating a little deer on Easter- at least it wasnt rabbit) The kids and I just stuck to our normal foods! We played around with Logan and then did our Egg hunt and pinata. Dinner was followed up by the kids Egg cake and lots of ice cream. The kids then asked what was next and I was happy to say that pajamas and bed were next!
The Bunny found our house!



Nana and the kids made a special Easter Egg cake.
Grandma Pat Pat made this Easter house and is still one of my favorite decorations.

On our way to church

Thanks to all of our Sunday School teachers that helped teach our kids the importance of Easter. Each one of them had many comments on the way home about Jesus and Easter. Larsons was "It's not about the treats but Jesus" He said this as he was stuffing chocolate candy in his mouth.


I promise that we will not dress Logan like a doll any more.

Our Easter Egg Hunt

Uncle Chris stopped on the side of the road and bought a pinata from a Mexican lady selling them. Then he stopped at Walgreens and filled this 4ft rabbit with Candy. I thought that the Easter Bunny brought allot of candy but Uncle Chris stole the show.
The pinata was seriously so much fun. The kids had us laughing so hard. Jackson was the first to knock off the bunnies arm and the carrot went flying!
We should have taken a picture of the rabbit once they were done. There was not much of the poor little bunny left.
