Easter 2015

I'm a little late with this Easter post but here it is! 

The day before Easter we got together with some friends and had a picnic and an egg hunt. Jess is old enough that she knows how it works. This is Jayven's first egg hunt and he was happy after he only found two eggs.

Jess and her friend Holly were egg hunting buddies.

The next day, the kids came downstairs  and found their Easter baskets. Jess had been counting down the days till "Easter Day" as she calls it. So as soon as she woke up she said "it's Easter Day!" 

I get super excited about getting their baskets together. I start atleast a month in advance and slowly start collecting little things. 

Jess has been begging for a palace pet ever since she saw it on a commercial. Thanks disney channel! Lol.

And Jayven enjoyed all of his goodies as you can see.

Jess loves to color so she really enjoyed her new coloring books and markers.

Jayven is learning to color on paper instead of on walls and anything else. 

Since we didn't have church because of General Conference, we still got the kids dressed up in their Easter clothes and went over for dinner at James and Heather's house. After we watch the second session of conference, we went outside and went on a hunt for some more eggs with the boys.

We forgot their baskets at home so Jess borrowed one and let Jayven use her baby's diaper bag to collect his eggs in. Lol. Can you tell in the picture in the right Jayven is making the "vroom" noise with his car. Such a boy even with his pink flowery bag. 

The rest are some pictures we took before dinner.

The week before we met the Easter bunny. Jayven though he was so cool from far away while we waited in line. As soon as we for closer he stood still and would not move. And Jess was too scared to get close so I had to join in on the picture for the second year in a row. See how Jayven is trying his hardest to not be very close to the bunny. Haha.
