Bunnies and Cousins

Here comes a too late Easter Overload!!!

We were so lucky to have Tim's sister and her family down for Easter.  They live in Utah and we usually get to go up there a few times a year, but this year we were not going to be able to.  So Arlo was super excited to get to have his cousins at our house.  This was our Easter Morning, waking up to find the Easter baskets and Easter eggs that the Easter Bunny left for us.




After a morning filled with hunts, presents and candy we dressed up in our Sunday best and went to church to learn about the true reason we celebrate Easter... Our Savior!  I am so grateful that our Savior volunteered His life to come here to this earth and set the example for us then die and more importantly, rise again 3 days later.  I know that it is through his Resurrection that we can live with him again. 




After church we took naps and went to Tim's cousin's house in Avondale for a big family dinner and Easter Egg Hunt!!!





(Here is a picture of Auntie Ann, whom I love, taking pictures!... One day I will make her a photo album of her at all the family events taking pictures!)













The boys bought a new game for the Kinect called Kung Fu High Impact, IT IS AWESOME!!!  The boys and their cousins spent more than a few late nights playing it.







We did not get around to coloring eggs before Easter, so we went ahead and colored them on Monday! No Biggie!!!  The kids had a blast!





A few other things that we fit in while they were down...

Bowling


Hiking,


And the boys made it to a Diamondbacks game!






Overall... it was a wonderful, busy, fun, exciting, exhausting Easter!
