Easter

This Easter we ran out of time on Sunday to look for our Easter baskets so we ended up doing it for Family Home Evening the next day. Michael didn't quite understand what he was supposed to be doing, but with a little bit of help he figured it out. They ran out of plastic eggs at the store so I bought these plastic jelly beans instead. Boy did Alan make fun of me! He kept calling them jelly slugs. Anyways we hid several of those for Michael to find that had fish crackers and baby puffs in them. He also got this cute green hippo. I probably like it more then Michael does but that is okay!



(That bag of candy is not Michael's. I don't want you to think that I give my little guy candy at 10 months old!)



My old roommate and friend NaeDene came to visit us for a week. It was a lot of fun to have another girl around! She was such a good sport about finding her Easter basket. I knew that Alan wouldn't be too thrilled if I made his too hard to find so I decided to make NaeDene's the hardest. I ended up having to tell her where I hid it. There are a lot of great places to hide things in our piano. =) This year Al hid my basket pretty good as well. I had to unscrew the panel on the wall that holds the air filter to our apartment. It was behind the air filter sitting there between the framed walls. Next year I might not be able to find mine!
NaeDene took this picture for us. We have VERY FEW pictures of all of us together! This one isn't that great but at least it has everyone. I love Holidays! Thanks to everyone who went along with my idea's of family traditions! It really means a lot to me.
