Happy Easter!!

Our Easter celebrations started off on Saturday without Carl. He had to work all weekend and we missed him a lot, but the kids and I had a fun time! We hit the Mona city park for a nice candy hunt and then headed to the Young Living Farms for their celebrations and it was SO much fun!! There were games, animals, bounce houses, face painting, and an Easter egg hunt for kids to enjoy. Gavin had a blast and I think Kamryn enjoyed it too, but hopefully next year she will be able to do more. She did have a good nap so that worked for me:)


Gavin loved petting the donkeys (after which he put his hands in his mouth) and wants to be Old McDonald so he can have a farm full of animals!

He sat very still and got an awesome fire breathing dragon painted on his face...it was tragic last night to wash it off during his bath.

He was so brave and rode the pony all by himself! He said its name was Bullseye and that he was a real cowboy. He did awesome!!!

YEEHA!

We ran into our friends Alisa, Carter and Darin Gledhill and had fun tagging along with them! Gavin sure loves Carter!!

Bouncing, or sliding head first, down the slide. This was Gavin's favorite part of it all!

And like I said for the most part Kamryn slept. It was such a fun day and I am looking forward to it again next year!!
Last night before we went to bed we planted our "Magic Easter Beans" to see if they would grow something.
Getting ready to plant.
Planting the magic beans.
Watering them.
And look what they grew!! A lolipop for Gavin and Kamryn.
(Thanks Mom for the idea)

And the Easter Bunny found us! Gav got new shirts and a bubble gun. Kamryn got new clothes and a new dress...because the Easter Bunny forgot to get her a prize (I know, some Easter Bunny!) What a fun couple of days we have had. And to top it off, we read the Easter story in the scriptures about Christ being risen. I love my family and am so grateful for all my blessings. I know that our Savior lives and loves us all. Happy Easter everyone!!

What fun! Gavin cracks me up I bet he is just a blast, especially with holidays. The Magic Easter beans is the cutest idea, I will have to remember that for Kaiz when she gets bigger. Hope all is well, hope to see you in the near future.
