Mary declared that this was “the best Easter ever!” I think it might have been.
The kids were so excited to wake up and find their baskets and eggs galore. Ammon basically ate a pound of chocolate and candy before lunch. He thought he was in heaven.
After the kids did their hunt, we re-hid a bunch of the eggs and made a lot more eggs for our friends, the Martineaus. They were in town for the Friday Save the Children March, and they drove down to see us around noon. We were so excited to see them! It’s been too long, and our visit was the highlight of the day.
First we did an egg hunt and then dyed eggs out in the sunshine.
Then the grown-ups sat around and talked while the kids literally played in the dirt. Abe and I kept exclaiming for the rest of day how fun it was to see Ben and Candace again.
After the Martineaus left, we listened to the rest of Conference and then drove down to the Miners.
The kids played with bubbles, had an egg hunt, and celebrated March birthdays. Lydia was SO excited to have her birthday celebrated. She’s been looking forward to it for weeks. Everyone had a great time.
