This is a new blog for me so be patient as I get it going. So this Easter came way too fast for me. All in one week we had my sister come to visit, my birthday, Bmans birthday, Easter, Spring Break and Jared was in Las Vegas for a photography convention. I felt like the whole holiday was just kind of thrown at me. We did, however, have a very nice time. Instead of tradional baskets that I would either have to throw away or store I used Hampers. My mother in law bought the kids hampers a couple of Christmas's ago and they are getting all torn up so I thought we would replace them and stuff them with their goodies. Well, Breil was so excited but Ella was so confused. She did not think it was right that the Easter bunny brought her something different. Ha! It was still real fun. We had a lot of fun hunting eggs and decorating and just all sorts of things. I think my favorite part though was the discussion we had over dinner. Breil asked why the "bad guys" put nails in Jesus' hand. He was super concerned. It brought on a wonderful discussion on the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the real purpose for Easter. The kids were enthralled as we talked about it. It was one of those moments as a mother I will never forget and will always cherish. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter! We love you all!
