Easter Morning

We decided to go to the Mt. Timpanogos Temple on Sunday morning. It looked like a beautiful day, but when we got to the temple the wind was blowing and it was cold.
Bailee cried the whole time, and I felt bad because I thought she was cold. She actually was crying because I told her she couldn't go inside the temple.
Her Easter dress came with a matching dress for her baby doll. Bailee thought that was pretty cool. Super cute despite the tears and the crazy wind blown hair.


We really enjoyed having everyone visit over the past week. After everyone was gone Bailee was really sad there were no more cousins to play with. We can't wait for the next family gathering.

I'm so grateful for the Easter holiday and the reminders of our Savior. I know that He did rise on the 3rd day and that because of His sacrifice and resurrection we all will be resurrected. I am so grateful to have the knowledge of the gospel and of my Savior, and especially that families can be together forever.

Dyeing Eggs

After a long busy week, we finally dyed the Easter Eggs. It's so much fun to watch Bailee experience these fun traditions. Even though she dyed eggs last year, it was like she was doing it for the first time this year.
She loved putting the eggs in and watching them change colors. We could have done 10 dozen eggs and I still don't think she'd have gotten bored.
The colored eggs....


After they dried the girls drew on them with chalk. Here are Bailee's finished product!

Not to much later we cracked them all open and made deviled eggs....YUM!

Visit from the Easter Bunny

We woke up Saturday morning to find that the Easter Bunny had visited. The girls had fun checking out their baskets and eating lots of candy.
