Easter 2010

This weekend was great because of General Conference and Easter but also VERY LONG because we barely left the house. Keeping two little girls entertained through hours and hours of General Conference is proving to be very tricky.

-Saturday morning Brynn and I woke up early and heading over to Smith's for the Easter Egg Hunt. Long story, but Addy chose to do another activity and was not able to attend the hunt. I told her it would make her sad not to do the egg hunt, but she said she wouldn't care. Of course, the next morning she was really sad after she saw all the candy Brynn got. Brynn happily shared though so all was right.

-We came home watched morning and afternoon Conference and had a girl night while Dad went to Priesthood session with his brothers. We made dinner and cookies, had a bath and watch a movie. I have the cutest stinkin' girls:)

-Sunday, the girls found their Easter baskets and we made a big breakfast. Then we watched conference, dyed eggs, had nap time and watch more conference. We all had cabin fever by 4pm so Todd took the girls outside for a little while. That helped a ton and we made it through Easter Sunday.

-It was really fun talking to Addy about the real meaning of Easter and reading her the Easter story. I love that she's starting to get some of these things, at least the basic concepts of the holidays. It makes the holidays more meaningful, and not all about candy and presents.

Here is Brynn finding her basket. (Our bunny hides the baskets.)

She is way into this goofy smile with her chin sticking out. It makes me laugh.

Addy found her basket down stairs.

Brynn got a hold of the chocolate before I could even stop her!

Best Friends!

Dying Easter Eggs

Addy got really into it. She did pretty good!

This was Brynn isle at Smith's for the egg hunt. It was only for one and two year olds. It was A LOT of candy for such little kids because there were only 20 kids that age there. It was nice though because they took their time filling their baskets and no one got pushy.

After this much candy I thought it was time to go. There was still a bunch of candy on the floor but I figured this was more than enough.
