I was able to take Xander and Mara to the Provo City Center Temple dedication on
March 20th. It was really cool to witness it (from our stake center) and I
felt the spirit so much. I can't wait to be able to serve in that historic building.
Since Brent & Lisa were going to be gone on Easter, we had our Annual Egg Hunt a week early.
All through dinner, Melody just wanted to go in the 'ard' and didn't eat much of her
dinner. Once we were all outside, she didn't want to stand still for any
pictures either. She was the first one to find an egg and was ready for the hunt.
Here's all the kids ready to go, plus Karri, so Melody would be in the picture.
Each child is assigned a color, which is really nice and much better than when they were all labeled
with names years ago. Xander was Orange, Mara was Light Blue, Jaina was Pink and Melody was Red.
Since Melody doesn't know her colors yet, she was picking up anything that she saw.
We slowly distributed the eggs to their proper owner and filled her basket with red ones.
Here's Jaina, the only one on that side of the yard with all those eggs!
I love that Xander wore the bunny ears the whole time.
Pat would find red eggs then throw them in front of Melody so she could put them in her basket.
Max and Xander were trying to do tricks with their eggs.
This was a response to 'show me your eggs!'
I was wanting a family picture and was hollering to her to come
here, but she just said 'no' in the sweetest voice and walked off.
I was able to get a cute pic of the kids, but Melody was more concerned with stealing Xander's eggs.
Then his bucket tipped over and she was the first one to help put them back.
These kids are spoiled and get a bunch of money in their eggs.
Bunny ears selfies!!!
Melody just wanted to put the money back in and shake it around.
We spent some time in the front yard and she decided to find rocks and line them up on the porch.
It was a great Egg Hunt and I'm thankful that we have these family traditions that the kids love so much.
