Easter

Easter morning, the kids were so excited to see what would be in their Easter baskets. We don't do the Easter bunny, but we just tell them that they get fun gifts from loved ones.

Roswell's first find was a chocolate bunny. He liked the toys he got, but then he disappeared. This is what we found...
The sneaky boy had de-foiled the bunny and was trying to eat as much as he could before we noticed. At least it was food. This boy has lovingly been given the nickname of "our goat". He has eaten just about anything he can put in his mouth ie- hand sanitizer, 1/2 of a rubber stamp, paper, books, fuzz, and Dan's pretty sure he ate a scouting merit badge, and that's only what we've caught. I'm happy he found food, seriously we do feed him and he eats LOTS of that too.

Here's a brighter picture, you can see he is still clutching the foil. We figured that since it was Easter we'd let him be happy and just eat it before breakfast. Soon after he was caught opening an egg and shoving m&m's in his mouth too. Sneaky I tell ya!

This special weekend was also a conference weekend for those in the LDS church. This is where the prophet, 12 apostles, and other leaders address the members to teach and give counsel in different sessions over 2 days. Downstairs, we have access to BYU-tv, so we imitated a story from the Book of Mormon where saints in the americas pitched their tents facing the prophet to hear him speak. Dan set up a huge tent with sheets so that we could do just that. The kids really enjoyed that and actually listened while they were in there. It was a very fulfilling and special Easter weekend.
