Easter Weekend

This last weekend was a fun, family weekend. Kelly had Good Friday off so we decided it would be a good day to dye eggs. The kids enjoyed dying eggs but of course they didn't have the patience to leave them in the dye for more than a few seconds. They had a good time regardless.

Later that night the kids went to my parents ward Easter party while Kelly and I had a little date night. We decided to go bowling. Let's just say that both of us bombed and prefer to think that our Wii Bowling scores are just as good as our real scores.

We have family in town so we asked the Easter Bunny if he could come to our house a day earlier. He hid our dyed eggs along with plastic eggs throughout our family room. The kids had fun finding eggs and only needed a little help with a few eggs that were a little more inconspicuous than the rest. Hunter is helping Mylie find an egg in the picture above.

The Easter Bunny put the kids Easter baskets on a bench in our room so the kids wouldn't be distracted with the eggs hidden around the family room while the saw what the Easter bunny brought them in their baskets. Hunter thought it was pretty hilarious that the bunny "hopped" into our room without us hearing him. I told Hunter that he must have tiptoed but Hunter insisted that he hopped.

Hunter and Kora are both showing the eggs that they found.

On Sunday the kids got dressed in their brand new Easter clothes that their Nani made and got for them. Hunter refers to his suit as his "Missionary" (suit). He had to try it on numerous times throughout the week. He loved it. Kora LOVED the big fluffy dress her Nani made her. Every time Hunter tried on his suit she HAD to try on her dress and they HAD to dance together. Hunter likes to spin her around. I guess you can only dance like that when you are wearing nice clothes (according to Hunter).

Church was nice, then it was off to Nani & Grandpa's house for Easter dinner. We enjoyed a fun day with the Zamora family (Kelly's sister, Becky's family) who happens to be down for the week and Great Grandpa.
To all our family and friends we hope that you had a wonderful Easter!
