happy easter

posted by owen and everett

for easter this year, we went to a big egg hunt and fun day in our local hometown of parker. it was lots of fun, and there were lots of kids! fortunately there were also lots of eggs. we enjoyed participating in the egg "hunt", playing in the playground, and bouncing in the bounce house. there was also balloon animals, face painting, prize wheels, and obstacle courses. some of our eggs even had yummy candy in them (mom only allowed us one piece each!) and golden tickets for special prizes at the prize booth.

the eggs were super colorful and really easy to "find"!

the 1-year-olds went first and ev got 5 or 6 eggs!

going through our eggs to see what was inside

picking out our one piece to eat and giving the rest to mommy

ev had a chocolate rice bunny and owen chose sixlets

owen chose a small black puppy at the prize booth with the golden
ticket he found in one of his eggs. he sure does love all puppies!

we didn't do any special meal for easter, but mommy did make
resurrection rolls. they were a great way to represent jesus' body being
covered in oils and spices and being put in the tomb, then to see His
body no longer there and the "tomb" empty. plus, they were delicious!
