Easter

Ah Easter, what can I say.  We tried to focus this year on the true meaning of Easter, and I think the kids learned a lot.  I want them to have a strong understanding of the Atonement and a relationship with Christ.  Then Easter Sunday, it became all about the baskets and the egg hunt.  But I was okay with that because we had been focusing on what really matters every night for two weeks, and because it was a lot of fun. 

 Have you ever seen a more excited kindergartner?

 Ella's beautiful Easter egg basket. (Last year we started the tradition of hats as baskets.)

 This yard  is perfect for hiding eggs.

 Our little hunters didn't have to look too hard though.

 Cascarones, or confetti eggs, are a local tradition, and well, when in Rome, do as the Romans.

 We all spent the rest of the day with confetti in our hair, but we looked festive.
