Easter Weekend

We started Easter weekend off by planting flowers at the temple.  I failed to take any pictures but the girls were really excited and eager to help.  They can't wait to go back and see the flowers in full bloom!

On our way home we stopped by the park to roll Easter eggs. This is a tradition my family did every year.  The family humored me. Kelsey didn't care for it too much as she kept trying to come up the hill, after which she'd fall and loose the contents of her basket. lol.

 We finally let them open the eggs up to reveal the candy inside and the event got a lot better.

 I'm not sure what it is, but Miss Kelsey looks so big in this picture.

After church they found their baskets.

 Hooray! Barbie has swim suits now and no longer skinny-dips in her pool. (remember how a friend gave Rylee a barbie swimming pool for her birthday? Well, Barbie doesn't swim in her ball gown. Problem solved. lol)

 Don't worry, this one changes her clothes multiple times a day. Her most frequently asked question is "Mom, can I wear a church dress even if its not church time?" Answering No is futile. She'd just cry and then change anyway.

 I was not going to get the girls new dresses this year.  They have so much already. But then my Sister-in-law was looking for pattern testers for her dress pattern and I couldn't resist.  Rylee was really excited to pic the fabric out for their dresses.  On our way to the fabric store we were talking all about it and after a moments pause she frantically announced "But Mom!! I don't know how to sew!" "Well, would you like to learn?" "Yea! Mom, could you help me?" "Absolutely".

Funny girl.

She did help.

Oh, how I love my little Family! We're so grateful for our Savior! Because of Him we can be together forever.  Definitely worth celebrating!
