I have been looking forward to Easter for along time now. Easter is one of my favorite holidays. Growing up, my family would do a HUGE easter egg hunt for all the kids and we would get HUGE easter baskets full of fun stuff! I always looked forward to the new outfit i would get on easter morning. So now that we have Brynlee, i was excited to carry on those traditions. We we went up to SLC on friday. We decided to stay at chris's parents house the whole weekend so we didn't have to pack up our stuff and move it to my parents. So friday night we went to dinner then watched a movie at the Judd's. Chris went to the dunes with my brother for the day on saturday so i figured i would go to my parents house and spend some time with them. Chris left at 5:45 in the morning and Brynlee woke up at 7:00 so we had an early start. I got us both ready and we headed to my dads. My parents were watching my niece Presley so i colored some easter eggs with her. She kept asking why Brynlee wasn't helping so i decided to put her next to Pres so she could be involved in the egg coloring process. It was soooo cute. Then me and my sister in-law went on a shopping trip. We went to the cheesecake factory for lunch then shopped till we dropped!!! Our intentions were to just go to a few stores for US. Oh no, we ended up shopping for the little girls for a few hours then we quickly ran into the stores we wanted. By the time we were done, we had spent 5 long hours at the mall. It was sooo much fun and the girls were so good but i was exhausted by the time i got home. When chris and the boys got home, we all went to Iggy's for dinner and hung out for a little bit after wards. I was so tired and ready to hit the sack. The next morning was easter so i had to put Brynlee's basket together. Easter was finally here. I was so excited. When Brynlee woke up, i fed her oatmeal and then the kids got their baskets from the easter bunny. We got Brynlee a book, movie, stuffed bunny and an outfit. She was so excited and she loved her bunny. I was a happy mommy. Then it was time to put her cute easter dress on that i had been looking forward to for a month. And oh man was she the cutest baby!!!! We then headed to my dads for the annual easter egg/basket hunt. Brynlee got spoiled! She got 2 new outfits, toys galore, bunny ears, food and money. She had so much fun playing with all her new toys! Then we ate lunch and headed back to the Judd's for their easter party. Everyone but the Omaha and London Judd's were there. Needless to say, there were 39 people!! it was very crowded but it was sooo much fun to see everyone and catch up. All the kids played together and the food was amazing!! We were all exhausted at the end of the night but we had so much fun. I love easter and the time we get to spend with our families. Having Brynlee makes the holidays more exciting because we get to make our own family traditions!!!! I hope everyone had a good Easter :)
