Happy Easter 2011

We spent Easter with Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Mallory, Uncle Josh, Uncle Brady, Aunt Shannon, Aunt Kelsey, Uncle Michael, Payton, and Scarlett. We had tons of fun looking for baskets, eggs, going to Sarah Henry's Easter Egg hunt, dyeing eggs, playing games, and more. We really enjoyed attending sacrament meeting with the family. It was a ton of fun to be with our extended family this past weekend. We love being so close to family it is a huge blessing.


All the kiddos ready to go find the Easter Eggs that Aunt Mal filled for us. Thank you Aunt Mallory for always doing the Easter Egg hunt.




Ella found some Eggs. She stopped and ate the candy before finding the rest of her eggs. Yes she is wearing big girl panties. She is potty trained. Yipee for us. In the last two days she has gone poo poo on the toilet. Which is a huge accomplishment. We are not completely accident free yet, but we will get there. One accident yesterday and that was Mommy's fault for not helping her get her undies off in time.



Jaydn ready to find more Eggs.

Madalyn looking for Easter eggs in Grandma Robertson's beautiful back yard.




Our several attempts to take a picture of Payton and Scarlett with our kiddos in their Sunday best.

Ella is being difficult however this was the last picture taken. Probably the best attempt. Scarlett was bribed with candy by this point.





Too many pictures by this point Ella is done. Believe it or not this was the second to last picture to be taken.




Scarlett and Ella need something to distract them.... Oh wait Mal and Liz are trying to entertain them behind the camera. Jaydn you are a silly boy but please just smile. Payton, Payton, up here and smile please. Good job Olivia and Madalyn but can you hold on to the babies a little longer. Really this picture is telling a better story then the perfect one does.



Thank you Uncle Kevin for giving Scarlett an Easter candy, but Ella you need to look at the camera and stop trying to hold "baby Scarlett" who is almost bigger than you in size.






Crazy face picture.


On one of our date nights Madalyn and I saw some beautiful dresses. There were several to choose from at Costco and Madalyn picked this dress, not surprising since her favorite color is yellow. She said it looked like a princess dress. I find it so cute that my little girls love and want to be princesses. Costco has decent prices on their children clothes by the way. When we got home we showed Olivia the new dresses that Madalyn had picked out. Olivia said, " Oh those are cute." I was thrilled that she replied that way and not angry that she was not able to pick the dresses out. I think she was just thrilled to get a new dress. I am grateful that my girlie's get along well for the most part. I have been blessed with some easy going twins. I also love that they still hold strong to their individual personalities.





One of my very favorite parts of Easter is the beautiful dresses that little girls wear. Every Easter as a little girl we would put on our favorite dress to wear to church. Some Easters we had enough money to buy new dresses and that was always a treat. To look our very best on one of the most sacred times in our saviors life seems most appropriate. New dress or Old dress we always wanted to look our very best on Easter.
