Easter Festivities

I'm a little late on the Easter report. Sorry about that! We had such a great Easter! On Saturday we went to Grandpa & Grandma Drummond's house for a party. We had a yummy turkey dinner and an easter egg hunt for all of the grandkids. Simon and Nolan just loved looking for the eggs! To keep things fair, each kid got ten eggs. Come to find out, when the hunt was over, we had to give a few of Simon's eggs to people who didn't find their ten. He got a little excited and just kept looking. They loved playing with their cousins. On Sunday the easter bunny came, we went to church, (which was great because Ben took Bella and I got to go to relief society for once!!) then we went to Grandpa Bliss and Kai's house. She made some yummy chicken for dinner, and then we had an easter egg hunt.
Each kid had their own color of eggs to find. Of course, Simon got green Rollie color (Why he calls it that is a long story) He wanted to pick up any egg that he found! It took a little while to sink in that he only got to find the green eggs. He also had to open every single egg when he found it, just to see what treat was inside. So cute.
Ben went around with Nolan. He kept saying "eeeeeegg, w-are you?" (where are you) He's such a cute little toad.As soon as he was done he sat down and started eating his chocolate bunny. In Nolan's world, that is the most important thing, candy.
Bella, of course, had the pink eggs. Tia took her to find her eggs. She didn't care what was inside of them, she just wanted to stick the egg in her mouth. She sure did have a good time with her tia. When the egg hunt was over, she just sat by herself on the grass with her basket, her eggs, and her little beany baby doll, happy as could be. She even got her chocolate bunny open, and man oh man was she loving life! Then some mean lady came and took it away before she could even get a good bite! Those darn moms.

Doesn't she look so pretty in her easter dress?! I love holidays. They are even more fun for me now that I have kids. I love being with family too. Ben and I are so lucky that we get along with, and love being around both sides of the family. I hope everyone had a great Easter!

That sweet Bella sure was fun to go egg hunting with. Each egg I found she wanted to stick straight into her mouth! The boys sure were cute too. Everytime Nolan found an egg everyone knew because he would scream! And poor buddy finally found that last egg and he was so excited!

I am so sad that we missed the party. Your kids are just so stinkin' cute. I just love the crap out of all of them.

It looks like you guys had a great Easter! Everyone looks great and Bella was a doll in her dress. I still just want to pinch the fat rolls all the way down her arm:)
