Easter

So Easter was 2 weeks ago and I'm just now getting to these pictures. We have been busy around here. We are trying to take advantage of the time we have left with our Phoenix friends and are hanging out with them a lot. We are also busy looking for a place to live in Flagstaff. We still haven't settled on one, but I hope we are getting close. 

We had a wonderful Easter. We loved teaching Susanna about Jesus and how he was resurrected and what that means. We talked about it throughout the week as we did different Eastery things like dye eggs. Then I would ask her, what happened when Jesus was resurrected? She told me, "Jesus die. But then he all better!" She gets it. They had a great lesson in nursery on Easter and sent her home with a few cut outs of Jesus and the tomb. Susie used them to teach the lesson for Family Home Evening all by herself. It was so sweet.

Susie has been looking forward to dyeing eggs for a LONG time! So she was thrilled when we finally got to it. We didn't let Braden participate too much. Sorry bud, better luck next year. 

We also had fun with our Easter baskets. I found so many cute things at the dollar store! Score!

I love getting the kids dressed up for Easter. They just look so adorable. Check out Braden's little bow tie. Just so cute. I curled Susie's hair for the first time Easter morning. She actually liked it! 

For Easter dinner we had some great friends over. This is what happens when an amateur tries to take a group picture with a timer. Sorry Susie, you didn't make the cut. These have been our good friends. Both families have children the same age as our children, which as been so fun. It's so sad to leave good friends when you have to move.
