easter 2009



on goes the catch up...

we had a wonderful easter this year.  the kids woke up to baskets from the easter bunny.  he left construction paper, markers, stickers and such.  we got ready for church, and enjoyed a wonderful time there, remembering the resurrection of the Savior.




after church, i started the preparations for easter dinner - one of my favorite holiday dinners.  okay, i guess i love pretty much all holiday food.  mmm.  thinking about food is making me hungry. :)  anyway, the family came over for dinner, and we had a great time together.  i served the traditional (in my family, anyway) ham and potatoes, with other side dishes.  it was a wonderful day.  

i think that maybe next year we will have the egg hunt/baskets on the saturday before easter.  that way we have the fun stuff the day before, and can really focus on the Savior on easter.  i'd like to start a new tradition to make Easter Sunday really special and important - help the kids understand the significance.  let me know if you have a great Easter Sunday tradition you do with your family.  i'd love to hear!

  2. Sounds like you guys had a fun Easter. This year we did the eggs and basket stuff early. I definitely want to keep doing that. It makes Easter Sunday more special.
