Hallee and Wyatt were up bright and early Easter morning. They went out and found their Easter baskets before anyone was awake. Stinkers! They were excited to come in and tell me what they found. The Easter bunny brought them this sand table too!
Their Easter baskets had a few treats and a small Book of Mormon and a Book of Mormon activity book.
After we looked through their baskets Hallee and Wyatt had fun looking for eggs.
We put quarters in the eggs instead of candy. The kids get plenty of candy and they love the money eggs.
A little while later Jonah woke up and found his basket.
He had fun finding his eggs.
He was pretty happy with his loot!
We finally woke Caitlyn up so she could find her basket.
The kids also got "Sing." We all love that movie!
We had time to have our family home evening lesson before church. We opened and read the scriptures that go along with our resurrection eggs. It was great to bring the focus back to Christ. I love Easter, I love the reminder that darkness will always give way to light. I love that because of Christ we can always find peace and light through Him, the Prince of Peace. I'm so grateful for my Savior and the peace and hope He brings me.
The kids couldn't wait to play in the sand after church. They have had a lot of fun with it. I love that they don't sit in the sand so it isn't in all of their clothes.
We went to my parents for dinner that night. The kids were so excited for the annual Easter egg hunt. I sure love all of these kids! We had a nice dinner and had fun visiting.

Great post for what looked like a great Easter! That was smart to put the Book of Mormon activity books and Books of Mormon in their baskets and it looked like they were all happy without a lot of candy! Yay! I hope they each got plenty in our Easter egg hunt. I loved your testimony of Easter also!
The picture with the cousins is so cute!
