Easter was early in 2008. March 23. We'd barely got back home after a family trip to St. George. We'd gone out Thursday, March 20th, and Grayson ran the Pinewood Derby for Jensen's ward (Wendy was pack leader, Josh took first place). We stayed for a couple of days, and even participated in the annual Ivins Easter Egg hunt. It was packed with people, different fields set up for the different age groups. They started by giving all the kids a couple eggs (in case they weren’t able to grab any in the chaos) and then the rest were just laying on the grass to be picked up. Cooper was intimidated by the whole thing and didn’t even hit the field. Colton and I went out and picked up a couple eggs and called it good.
We headed back home Saturday. Got the kids settled downstairs (because they often sleep on the couch, but we need it empty for the Easter bunny!) and to bed. MY bed. Yeah. A peek at the baskets above (even Mom and Dad got baskets this year) and more Easter activities below. Dying hard boiled eggs, decorating cookies, nests, playing with toys the bunny brought.
Happy Easter!
