We had a really fun Easter this year. Elsie and her aunt dyed eggs on Saturday. We did a special egg hunt on Saturday night as well during family night. We hid 12 eggs which each had an object relating to the last week or so of Christ's life and a scripture to go with it. Like a piece of bread representing the sacrament and a nail for the crucifixion. The last one is empty representing the empty tomb when Christ was resurrected. It is a good way to get the kids to go over the end of Christ's life and be excited to open the next egg.
Easter Sunday was good too. Elsie hunted for the 2 baskets and found them after quite a while in the laundry baskets. After looking over the contents she was ready for the egg hunt. Catherine got involved at the end and found 2 eggs on her own but Elsie found lots for her too. Grandma Mary stopped by before church to drop off the dresses she made for Elsie and Catherine. We got a few photos of them and then all of us. After church we went to Grandma Flora's house and had 2 more egg hunts one on the roof and one in the condo and then we had dinner! It was a busy day but good.
