Wow, hope you all had a fantabulous Easter Sunday! Here at the Button Box we had lots of family fun, our favorite kind!
We started off Saturday afternoon coloring eggs with the little cousins .....
"Look, I can do two!"
We try to get as much family together as possible and share all of the egg decorating supplies and duties. Auntie Des showed the kids how to write with a candle before dying......totally forgot to get that picture. Sorry, I was trying to get the rice crispy treats done at the same time.
When the dads and papa were through with their work, we all went to see "How To Tame Your Dragon" I had more fun watching the kidlets than the movie. But I will say that it is a cute movie and we will probably be purchasing it later this year.
This morning we listened to General Conference and loved that most of the talks from church leaders today focused on the ministry, atonement and resurrection of our Savior. I couldn't have asked for a better Easter Sunday for my family. They munched on Easter goodies while listening to the General Authorities and our beloved Prophet until it was time to go to Mamma and Papa's house for dinner and the egg hunt.
Oh and we didn't want to leave Jade out of all of the fun........
PUPPY POWER!!
For dinner, we had dutch oven chicken, dutch oven potatoes, salads, homemade rolls and deviled eggs and ................
.......... the cake that I made for our dessert, I got the idea, I think, from Everyday Celebrating. Check the link under blogs I frequently stalk. She has some amazing ideas.
After dinner, you guessed it, it was time for the Easter Egg Hunt! We had enough eggs that we invited the little family across the street. (Sometimes you have to borrow small children for holidays.)
It was very short lived as we have yet another snow storm coming in. And I don't care which direction the wind comes from......without any sunshine it is just nasty and cold!
I actually got to snap a few of the adults at the 'party' too!!!!!
My cute sister and her husband, posing cuz she can.
My Dad, observing the goings on in his back yard.........
Me and the hubs, we don't have too many pictures of us together.......(I'm lurving the new 5 minute hairdo, he's NOT!)
Matthew and Camyce, snuggling to keep warm.
My brother, his wife and the father of the other kids that we 'borrowed'. He and his wife are soooo kind!
Heath, Shane and Jesse had a great time being the "Easter Bunny" and hiding all of the eggs and candy. I hope that they can always find something to enjoy about this holiday.
