easter

I'm 7 months pregnant and starting to feel sick again! I've kind of been awful at all the holidays that have passed so far, so I decided that Easter was gonna be different even if I threw up every where we went.
We went to the North Logan Easter Egg Hunt. Corban didn't particularly love the Easter Bunny. Funny thing though, right after we snapped some photos, he couldn't keep his eyes off the bunny and thought he was SO funny.


Yes, I made the piñata. Nothing says Easter like a piñata and hot dogs. Some friends and family went to my parent's house where we roasted hot dogs and broke a piñata. I only put one layer of paper mache on the egg so only two kids got to hit it. Oops! Next year it'll be better.

My only Easter decorations, but at least I decorated right? The garland is made out of old plastic eggs that I strung on a piece of twine and then tied pastel fabrics in between each egg. The hardest part was hammer holes into the top and bottom of the eggs.

We also went to the Wildlife Animal Easter Egg Hunt at USU. They advertised animals would be present. I guess they didn't lie because they did have a fish in an aquarium there. Note to self for next year: do not show up on time for this egg hunt if at all. They spread the eggs out an hour before they had the hunt. Corban kept running out to get some eggs and cried and cried when we had to haul him back to the sidewalk. We eventually just let him have three eggs and we left.

We tried to keep telling Corban that Easter is about our Lord, and Savior Jesus Christ. Hopefully he understood a little. It was a fun Easter and he got a lot of candy that I thought we'd give away but I'm doing a pretty good job of eating.

  1. I think your Easter egg garland is awesome! I don't think I've EVER decorated for Easter. So, you get big points in my book!

    Thanks for inviting us up for the hunt and hot dogs. The girls had a great time!

  2. Cute Easter egg garland. You are quite impressive. I am sorry that you are not feeling well again. 2 more months and you will be feeling better but be too tired to enjoy it. The joy of having kids! Hope you get feeling better soon.
