Our Easter Fun with Grandma & Grandpa!

Easter is such a wonderful time of year. I love spring time, I love all of the fun and excitement in the air, but I am mostly so grateful for this time of year to celebrate and remember the atonement. What an incredible act my Savior did for the people of the world. I feel so blessed to know of the truth here on the earth and to be able to share that truth and light with my kids.

This Easter we were especially blessed to have Clayton's parents come and join us! We had such a fun week all together.

On Monday, Clayton and his Dad took off to go Grizzly Bear hunting in the mountains for the week while his mom and I stayed home and played...a lot! This was the creation that we made together. She has made me a table topper for each holiday this past year so while she was here we decided to make a Birthday themed one. Now, when it is someones birthday in our home, we'll have this table topper out for a few weeks prior to celebrate! I just love how it turned out. She is SO talented, I couldn't have done it with out her! Thanks Mom!!

Hannah loved having them here with us. She ate the attention right up! Grandpa didn't mind so much either...

On Saturday, we did an Easter Egg Hunt with them in our home. They were all sorts of excited to collect the eggs around the house!

The hunt is on....







So proud of their HAUL! AND ready to dig in to the candy!!

Sunday Morning we woke up to quite a mess that the Easter Bunny had left in our home. He bounced all around inside while tons and tons of treats and toys flopped out of his basket! What a mess!!



Not to mention the baskets full that he left for the kids to find!

No worries about the mess, the kids were more than thrilled to pick it all up this time!










Kaiden always has this thing with stickers, apparently they should cover his mouth and if there are more stickers then they should cover his face.

....and he wanted to share the love with Grandpa.

awww......what a good sport.

Weston on the other hand thought that this was hilarious but wanted nothing to do with having stickers on his face. So....Grandpa tackled him down and got him too.

Weston tried with all his might to get away,

no such luck, Bud. Grandpa won!!



And these, well.....I just had to. This is yesterday's hair taken out and slept on. So, in the morning, this is a normal look for us to be greeted with. Fancy, huh?!
