Our Easter Fun!

We had a wonderful Easter...This was the first year Ave was that perfect and magical age
where she fully appreciated all the Easter traditions. I now live for these holidays
where we are able to make sweet memories.



These two pics above are from Ave's school party. The kids made these easter baskets
and they were beyond eager to find these eggs.

The next day, we went to an Easter brunch with April, Anthony, Tanner
and our good friends from our old ward.

Ave and Tanner...So much for our high hopes of getting a picture of
them both smiling AND looking at the camera collectively.

How many kids can fit in the sandbox?


Ave and Caden



The relentless search continues for those eggs!



Just a pretty girl


Avery adamantly requested the "girl easter bunny" this year after refusing to visit the easter bunny that was obviously a scary boy easter bunny. So, we were lucky to locate this girly bunny wearing a girly bow...



Yea, I'm kinda sick in this video, but its still good. Ave did not want to LOOK for her easter basket. I kept telling her "look in every corner" and she would just give one quick glance and tell me, "Mommy, It's not here! I can't find it!" She got kinda frustrated and we had to look for it together....We finally found it in the corner of the family room...thank goodness...


The Easter Bunny came!

One important lesson I learned this year...Not to do easter baskets until after you go to church. Ave was very disappointed that she was not able to take her goodies to church...and this is the unfortunate reason behind no pretty easter dress pictures as a crying, sad girl does not always photograph well.

You should have taken the pic of the crying, sad girl and kept it for her wedding video! You always need a crying, sad girl picture on those videos. She's so cute with her cousins. And also so cute in pics by herself. Happy Easter!
