Easter Fun


What a wonderful time we had with family this Easter. We had the chance to spend some time with both my family and Dan's. And believe it or not, that wasn't stressful. We started our day going to Church with my family. We actually attended my Grammy's ward because she was speaking. Bryce and his family were in town so we got to hang out with them too. Taylor, Bryce's



boy, loved dragging Kailey around the church grounds. It was pretty funny, but of course, all is fun and games until someone gets hurt. Oh well. We headed back to my parents house after that and had a fun Easter egg hunt. Kailey had a great time finding the eggs and putting them in her basket. I'm glad she didn't realize there was candy inside until after the hunt, otherwise she would have spent her time opening each egg instead of hunting for them! Even Owie joined in the
fun! After that, we headed to Grandma and Dennis' house where the whole Parkinson clan was there. We pulled up right as Tony, Lisa, and Jason were hiding the eggs, and of course Kailey wanted to start right away, especially now b/c she realized what was hidden in the eggs. I managed to hold her back until all the other kids arrived. Wilma has of course prepared a schmorgesboard of wonderfulness, so dinner was FANTASTIC. And Owie absolutely loved the humongous strawberries! It was a wonderful day with family and a beautiful reminder of our Savior and His love for all of us.
