Easter was a very nice boring day. Just the 4 of us together. We (I mean the Easter Bunny) hid eggs in Elis room, and he found an easter egg basket downstairs with lots of candy. so he is a happy kid. ;) We had ham and sweet potatoes and asparagus for dinner, so a pretty traditional dinner. Church was nice, but I taught the lesson and didn't realize I was supposed to teach the Easter lesson!! oops! Not that a bunch of 2 yr olds will care, but it probably would have been more meaningful than "I am thankful for fish" Oh well. During sacrament meeting, a couple of the talks talked about how when they do Easter egg hunts, they'll leave one empty egg symbolizing the empty tomb. or put a few eggs with pictures of Jesus. I think we could probably implement that around here. I think it would make it a bit more meaningful than getting jelly beans and chocolate...
Here are some pictures of the boys.
This first one, Nathan is trying to watch the Georgetown game... come on Eli - leave me alone!! LOL! (he doesn't really watch TV, he just happened to be facing it for this picture)

Decorating Easter Eggs yesterday... I actually had to buy eggs for this. I've been buying the brown ones lately, and got to thinking - they might not color as easily. :)

you look so cute! i love that jacket!!!!!!! Eli is such a cute little guy! I like the idea of the Jesus pictures in the egg.
That's a good idea with the eggs and Jesus and all that. I always have good intentions of doing stuff like that, then time sneaks up on me and it's too late. I need to plan better for holidays!
