EASTER

Saturday night Kolton and I went to the Foy's house to dye Easter eggs. Each of the boys got to dye two eggs. We stripped them down and put aprons on them. They loved giving each other hugs in their aprons. It was hilarious!
They thought it was pretty fun to drop the eggs in the dye. They didn't so much like the waiting for them to actually change color, but overall I think Kolton liked it!



After we died them they put stickers on them. All they wanted were the basketballs and soccer balls and baseballs. Occasionally they picked a bug or firetruck, but they pretty much stuck with balls.

****Easter Morning****

On Easter morning Kolton woke up to a letter from the Easter bunny starting him on a scavenger hunt leading to his basket!

Kolton was led to 8 different spots starting with the vacuum, then mom's shoes, computer, toilet paper, stove, lamp in the living room, toothbrush, Kleenex box, and finally the bathtub where his basket was hidden. Inside each egg was some candy and then a picture of the next place he was supposed to go. He had so much fun doing it! He'd get really excited every time he'd find the egg in the hiding spot!






Easter morning Brady got up before everyone else and decided to take a shower. He just reached his arm in to the bathtub and turned on the water without even looking. After about 5-10 seconds he realized the water sounded different and ran and turned it off--not before soaking EVERYTHING in Kolton's basket and the chair the Easter bunny gave him. He ran into our room and woke me up to help him dry it all off. Unfortunately we couldn't dry the chair off enough for Kolton to sit in it until that night, but he was still excited for his presents! Brady's such a special man...:) Kolton ended up with some candy, the Disney version of Pinocchio, a gumball machine and a "Cars" chair.


Later we went to Brady's parents house and ate dinner with them and the Foys and the Stapelys (a couple from Brady's parents ward). Brady's mom made this cute cake that Brady couldn't resist...(He stole a bunny off of it and created a little "bunny hole")

Kolton and Kade got to do an Easter Egg hunt outside on Easter too!

Kolton L-O-V-E-D running around outside looking for more and more eggs! He had about 30 to find!!






We also went to Lilly's grave to give her some flowers for Easter. We tried to explain to Kolton that she was his sister and that because of what we were celebrating yesterday we could be resurrected and be a family forever.


I'm sad I can't get any videos to upload! I've been waiting for 2 hours and I can't get one to upload! I might try later...
We had a good Easter! Holidays are so much more fun when you have kids to celebrate with! It was great to be able to celebrate Easter with Brady and Kolton!
