Easter 2011

-The Cubscouts hosted an Easter egg hunt and some games for the kids in the ward. Since Justin's the Cubscout Master we thought we better go in support of him. Actually, I didn't dare miss it-they had been announcing it in Primary and Molly was super excited. I'm not sure what her favorite part was-the actual hunt for eggs, all the kids she could play with, or the gunny-sack races.Stockton stuck close to my side and didn't really want to play any of the games. He was a little uncertain of the hunt as well. When I put an egg in his basket (because he didn't know what he was supposed to do) he got mad and dumped it out. Then he figured out it had candy in it...he grinned and then went hunting for more, walking around saying "eggs?" over and over.-The Easter party at my mom's never disappoints. Justin was stuck at work so the kids and I went down a day early to spend some extra time with my family. Grandpa took Molly to Plain City's big hunt. When she got home she got to decorate eggs.Then they got to hunt for eggs. Stockton knew exactly what to do this time.Then they got presents.-Molly knew all about the Easter Bunny this year so that was the first thing she asked about when she woke up on Easter morning. The kids had to find their baskets first. Stockton got a football pillow.Molly got an umbrella and rubber boots.The Easter Bunny also hid chocolate eggs all over the house. Molly had to find all of them with no hints or help from mom and dad. She was a really horrible hunter. She finally found the last one today (one week later).

-We had a nice meal at the Goodrich's after church. Brynn and the rest of us finally got to meet little Riley.The pinwheels were by far the hit of the night.Now bring on the sunshine!! We are so ready!

Grandma's parties are always the best! Jane always gets so excited for all the fun at those parties, especially all the cousins getting together. You have very cute kids. I love the pictures that you got taken below!!! You do such a nice job coordinating all their clothes. I think that Brynn looks more like a Moyes than your other two kids did. She is a doll. You are such a good mom and I am so happy you are enjoying having your children. Love ya!
