Easter

Oh what a wonderful time of the year to take the extra time to think of Christ and all he has done for us.

This year we didn't have anything planned and that was okay for us. Friday Lydibug got some mail from Papa Hill, she was excited to have some Jelly Beans!!!! We just love getting mail from Papa. Thanks for the candy!!!

Saturday morning in our little village they were serving pancakes at 9:30 and an Easter egg hunt at 10. They divided the field into different ages (we were with the 0-3year olds) and then told us parents were not allowed to touch the eggs, on your mark get set go!!
I helped Lydibug run to the first egg where Mitch and I pointed at the egg saying hurry pick it up pick it up, then pointing to her bucket saying put it in put it in. In all she collected 5 eggs.

Easter Sunday was great! We really enjoyed church, and afterward my two loves enjoyed a nap. That evening we spent with our great friend Mimi and Popi (The Starns). First we went to the park where Lydibug enjoyed the slides, we ended our park time with a walk around the pond where Lydibug got to get close to a duck and she even ended up chasing it a little bit!

Back at there place Mimi got Lydibug a nice Easter basket full of candy, bath toys, and a stuffed duck. Lydibug also got to open a present and inside was a book and a alphabet puzzle that tells you what letter you are putting in. (I hope that made sense)

Mimi made a great dinner of Ham, potatoes, and orange rolls. Yummy. Popi hid some eggs in the front yard and we took Lydibug outside with a basket and she just took off!!! She knew exactly what to do and was very good at it! Holy cow Mimi and Popi had tons of eggs full of candy just for her. Following the hunt Lydibug was really into playing with the eggs and giving her new stuffed duck hugs. We had a lovely dessert to end the evening Strawberry shortcake!! Delicious!!!!

Mitch and I are so grateful that we got to spend Easter with the Starn family! They have been very kind to us and Lydibug.
I am so Thankful for my little family, the joy our daughter brings us everyday and for my Savior, without him I would not be able to be with my family for eternity and eternity with them means everything to me.
