We started off the weekend with a Easter egg hunt at the elementary school. Eric took the girls and they were so excited to see the easter bunny and do the egg hunt. When they got to the school it was a whole different story. There were so many people and Eric got yelled at a few times for not being in line. The girls only got 3 eggs and the line for the easter bunny went around the school. They came home a little disappointed. I don't think we will try that one again! Thank goodness Grandma Alldredge came to the rescue and had a easter egg hunt for the grandkids. She made a wonderful Easter dinner and it was nice to be with family. I don't think we will ever get used to not having my dad around. There is just a huge piece missing when we get together. Somehow we still move on and have fun together but he is always close to our hearts. My mom gave each of the grandkids a memory frame with a picture of grandpa and 3 empty spots to put their favorite pictures of them with grandpa. They were so excited to bring it home. They will be a great keepsake. I was really touched by General conference and am grateful to have such a wonderful prophet that we can listen to and follow. I loved the quote when he said "the future is as bright as your faith." I truly believe that and know that if we trust in the Lord and have faith we can get through anything.

Oh, you found a dress for Sadie, it is really cute!
We were going to take the kids to the elementary school but when the weather wasn't perfect I used it as an excuse...sorry to hear about the bunny.
Your girls dresses are way cute and I love the easter eggs in the hair. You'll have to remember that on crazy hair day.
Holidays are a lot of fun but they also remind us of loved ones who aren't with us. Each year on my grandpa's birthday we would all get together and just share memories. We did it for like 15 years after he was gone, but somehow it helped the mourning process.
looks like you had a great Easter! the girls are so cute, and what fun dresses! What a blessing it is that your family can be all together for support, love and friendship. You have such a wonderful family.
I love coloring eggs every year and the egg hunts. I thought this year I would be coloring eggs myself but my daughter and her husband joined me. I also loved your Valentines Idea, I left a comment
