Our official Easter celebrations!

Easter morning started out with the boys finding their hidden Easter baskets that the Easter bunny left for them. They were pretty stoked to find them. Wyatt found his super fast and Ethan had to get a little help from Daddy and I. They then wanted to chow down on all the candy they got and we let them eat quite a bit. This year conference fell on Easter weekend which was actually really nice. So we got up let the boys find their baskets and then I made some yummy breakfast to enjoy while we watched conference. Then after conference the boys had a little Easter egg hunt in the backyard. These eggs were not filled with candy however, the Easter Bunny had left some special eggs that had pictures and items in them that told the story of Jesus. We were able to go through the last week of Jesus's life with the boys and his resurrection and then we hung out the rest of the day! 



 Wyatt was pretty stoked about everything in his basket and so was Ethan! haha
Ethan wasn't excited at all! ;-)  











Here is what the Easter bunny left us to tell about Jesus! 

That evening we made resurrection rolls. They are actually pretty cool. You roll a marshmallow inside some dough and then roll that in some cinnamon and sugar and bake it. When they are cooked the marshmallow is no longer there! We tried our best to include the real reason we celebrate Easter through out the day and I think we succeeded! I just hope that the message stuck with out boys! haha
