Easter Sunday

Addie running to see what the Bunny brought her!

The goods. Addie is really into gardening right now so the bunny brought her gardening tools, grow your own flowers/tomatoes, a watering pot, some books, bubbles, chalk, candy, a barking dog toy, duck bunny bath toy, and other fun things that Addie loves.

Inspecting it all before it got torn in to.

Addie loved hunting eggs! She found all 24 the Bunny hid!

Easter Sunday was extra special this year as it fell on Conference Sunday. We got up, Addie went through her basket, hunted eggs the bunny hid, and then we made a huge breakfast. The Mazanis' and Bob joined us for a breakfast of biscuits and jam, cinnamon bites, eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, fruit salad, and orange juice and we all piled on the couches to watch conference. After the morning session we headed to Mom and Dad's for our Easter dinner (or supper as Dad tells me it is supposed to be called) of Mimmie's fried chicken (which is the best fried chicken in the WORLD), southern green beans, and yeast rolls, Aunt Pam made some fabulous deviled eggs (that included olives... Addie and my favorite!), Mom made mac and cheese, corn, fruit salad, jello eggs, mini cheesecakes, dirt cups, and strawberry shortcake... YUM. I got off easy by only having to bring oreos for dirt cups and grapes. We had a great meal then everyone headed out to the back yard for the massive egg hunt Mom put on. Mom hid about 200 eggs in the yard (boiled ones had numbers which corresponded to a prize, golden eggs had large prizes- movie tickets, and the plastic eggs had candy). Jarom got movie tickets, I got a gift card to Bruster's Ice Cream, and Addie made a haul of other little toys. After the egg hunt the boys played horse shoes out in the yard while Addie, Grandma, Aunt Pam, and I played with bubbles. Mimmie and the rest of the crew were too busy going through their loot from the hunt! ;) We had a really great time and I was so mad when I realized that I forgot... MY CAMERA!!! Arg!

It was a wonderful Easter!

And I had to include this one. I boxed up a lot of unneeded things for right now to go in storage while we show our house and had the boxes stacked in a corner in the living room for Jarom to take to his truck. Addie turned it into her "toy house" and set up all of her favorite toys and barbies in their new home. Love her imagination! Notice they are all in the "sitting" position. I think the child had a bit of an OCD side too...
