Easter 2011

We had a fun Easter season this year.  The boys attended THREE Easter egg hunts; one at preschool, one at the Church, and one at home after the Eater Bunny came.  Here are some pictures from the Easter Egg Hunt at the Church on Saturday April 23rd...

The Find:
This is what the Easter Bunny left behind on Easter morning... New Church bags!!!  I am always trying to teach the boys the TRUE meaning of Easter and this year I decided that the Easter Bunny could bring new Church bags filled with Church appropriate items: CTR bands, future missionary banks, new crayons, new magnet puzzles, and of course there had to be candy in there too.
Nathanial was very happy to wake up and find what the Easter Bunny had left.  Nathanial was very concerned about the Easter Bunny coming on Sunday so we told him that he had to go to bed early so that he could come on Saturday night.
This is a sucker...
Nathanial was concerned about the Easter Bunny leaving eggs for us to find on Sunday so we told him the the Easter Bunny brought the eggs on Saturday but they were invisible until AFTER Church...
We had a wonderful Easter Season.  It is great to remember all that the Savior has done for us!
