Easter

Easter was so fun this year, now that Paige is getting older and "getting things" more. We did a lot of Easter egg hunting. Our first one was at a park with playgroup.

We visited the Easter bunny. She was excited at first, then was a little hesitant and ready to get off.  She has definitely become more receptive to sitting on laps since Christmas - when cried, screamed, and yelled while sitting with Santa.

Saturday we had the LDSSA Easter dinner, complete with more Easter egg hunting!

Her little friends

Sunday morning we hunted some more! I had the baskets all set out for Paige when she woke up. She immediately went to Ben's, grabbed his bag of Reese's and put it in her basket, and proceeded to hunt for eggs. A smart girl :)

Her new Elefun game was a hit

Then an attempt to get a picture in our Easter clothes. Paige didn't smile at the camera the whole day, and again, my camera must have been on a weird setting.

After church we had friends over for a delicious Easter dinner (I even successfully made the ham!), followed by another Easter egg hunt, and a sad Duke loss.

Amongst all of our Easter eggs we still tried to focus on the real meaning of Easter. We had a sweet FHE with Paige, complete with a rolling paper rock across the tomb (anything to attempt to keep her focus). I happened to be teaching the third verse of If the Savior Stood Beside Me to the primary. It is one of my favorite songs and a perfect Easter song to help us think of the Savior.
