Yes, I am way behind on my blog! Life is busy, but it's still important for me to take a moment and share the fun memories along the way. Last month my sisters Sarah and Chelsea drove up from Utah to spend Easter weekend with us, and of course our cousin Madison too! It's a new tradition we've started, since my kids have a long break around Easter, and so does Sarah at the school district where she works. Chelsea is still studying at BYU and was in the middle of finals - but she was able to study and even take one of her finals while she was here in Billings!
We attended the big Easter Egg hunt that's held every year at the Jr High, and sponsored by one of the local churches. It was great weather and great fun, and the girls scored plenty of eggs.
We spent lots of time outside enjoying the great weather which we missed dearly in Montana. We went on a hike at Phipps park, and we relaxed in the sun in the backyard while the girls played and played.
Then of course we colored our eggs. And then they stayed in the fridge forever because my girls don't like boiled eggs.
On Easter Sunday we awoke to treats from the Easter Bunny, and hidden eggs around the room. This was Hadley's first Easter, and she was uncharacteristically excited about all the hoopla.
Our friends the Wells had a huge Easter Egg Hunt in their yard, and invited us over on Sunday to help collect the hundreds of eggs that were hidden. The girls did surprisingly well without any assistance from us.
It is now almost June and we still have Easter candy in the cupboard :)
