Happy Easter! I work practically every weekend, so once again, we celebrated Easter more so on a different day of the week when it was convenient for Jackson and I to both be home. We went to an Easter egg hunt and bought a bag of jelly beans to fill up some Easter eggs to hide around the house. Than luckily we had an Easter egg coloring kit and some old Easter stuff bought from last year that we could use for this year to save us money. The boys are so little and don't really care at this age anyway. It still was fun for the little celebrating we did.
First was the Easter Egg hunt. It's just a nice little community one up the street, plenty of stuff for the kids and it's not announced to the general public so that way it's not packed with kids. I'm sure most Easter egg hunts around here that are publicly announced get packed with kids and then the kids only get like one or two eggs. This one that we go to is not really an "Egg" hunt because they don't fill eggs, they just throw out lots of candy and little toys on the field for the kids, which I'm totally game with that ... we don't need the plastic eggs. I'm just grateful for those who do all the work to put it on every year for the kids!
Gotta love Utah weather, it snowed the morning of and it was freezing! Hence why we are all bundled up!
The wonderful people that put this on every year!
This could be the most difficult hunt looking for things in the snow! lol
My boys!
Braxton is still pretty scared of large characters so I'm surprised I could convince him to go up to the Easter bunny to say hi. He wouldn't stand by him and pose for a picture though, that's for sure. :)
He did do a high five though.

A basket for the boys to share.
Time to color eggs!
Greyson wanted in on the fun so we gave him a measuring cup lol.
Decided to try to give him an egg to hold, the egg does say his name on it. :)
Decided to decorate them even more with stickers. Braxton likes stickers. :)
We had a bag of Easter eggs that teaches us more about Easter and Jesus Christ. I tried to show Braxton those eggs but he still doesn't quite understand, hoping to incorporate our Savior more into Easter as they grow older. I had them wear matching Sunday clothes for Easter but they were so fussy that day that a picture of them dressed in Sunday best never worked out. I'll take what I can get I guess. So grateful for our Savior and all that he has done for us!
