Eggcellent Times

Happy Easter to everyone!!

This year has been a very low key year for us. Jeff had some lay offs at work so he's been working more hours than usual. That on top of his birthday and conference made this Easter seem like it came speeding at us. I was prepared with goodies for the kids but we just did it nice and simple this year.
A huge Thank You to Ken for watching the kids for a special birthday date night. MarGene was off to help her parents with the final closing stuff of a move into a new place. The kids got a little one on one time with Papa which was nice. After our dinner out and movie we spent the night so that we could see the first session of conference with Ken.
We had a yummy breakfast and then had a nice and small Easter egg hunt that MarGene had put together before she left. The kids had a great time hiding, finding, and opening their eggs.

After the first session of conference we headed home to just relax and enjoy our Saturday with more conference at home. The kids were up bright and early this morning ready to get their baskets. We did another small hunt for chocolate mini bunnies and the big reveal of baskets. It was a storm and then over as the kids retreated to their rooms to play with their new toys.
We've made the kids try and watch some of conference and tried to talk about the Resurrection to bring the whole spirit back into Easter. Jeff made a yummy lunch of hamburger sliders and we are excited to finish off our day with the last part of conference. I hope everyone has enjoyed this Easter season.
