Easter Part 1

We decided to do "Easter baskets" on Saturday morning- that way Sunday we can focus on the Savior. It just works better for us! So, even though we went shopping on Fri with the kids in the cart so they saw most of what they were getting, we put together baskets for them when they went to bed. (They slept in their shirts from the day before because we had arrived home really late and put them straight to bed- oops! doesn't make for great photos!) The kiddos also got a fun package from Grandma Pam and Grandpa Dave in Utah- and enjoyed opening that and getting all kinds of goodies!!! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Jensen!






After that, we got ready, and headed over to the west side of town- Wittmann. It's almost a 2 hour drive from our house, so we don't get over there as often as we would like. We spent the day with Grandma and Grandpa Great, Aunt Kim, Aunt Cheryl, Nevan, and the rest of the Wilson clan. We had a yummy ham and potato salad dinner and an Easter egg hunt for the great-grand kids (Aimee, Bryson, and Nevan- we were missing Evan). The kids loved it! After that, Grandpa Great set up a fire outside (it was a little warm for a while, but then cooled down) and the kids enjoyed roasted marshmallows and we all enjoyed smores! It was a great day!
