Easter this year was lots of fun with our tiny easter egg hunter. holidays are so much better with littles! We debated if we should hide eggs or put together an easter basket for nola, because she is so young. I've heard people say "why go all out? they won't remember it anyway" But the thing is, I remember it. We made lasting memories hiding eggs, and then no more than ten minutes later we walking around our apartment living room finding said eggs with loads of excitement. I think our excitement rubbed off too cause she got pretty excited over those plastic colorful objects.... typical baby!
We filled her basket with things we already had around the house. Thats the beauty of a four month old, she didn't know she already owned those items. Its safe to say her basket was a hit, that Harold of hers has seen so much love in the past 8 months!
After snuggling up on the couch as a family of three watching conference, we headed up north to spend easter Sunday with family. Lynne always hides chocolate all over the house which makes the day extra fun. Everyone scopes out our potential finds all day until its finally time to hunt. Man, I love chocolate. We then had our 3rd annual tennis tournament. Zach and Carey vs Carly and Kristi. All the pets played along this year too. The boys put in a good effort, but the girls won again!
Easter eggs and chocolate hunts are fine and dandy but the real treat this easter was being with the ones i love and listening to the word of the prophets. They spoke about Jesus Christ and his love for me. I feel so lucky to have the knowledge of the gospel, and to know my Savior.
