Happy Easter

Things just never quite turn out like you plan. All of the sudden on Friday night, Taylee got a fever of 102*. She was so miserable and so upset. So after a couple of hours, I took her to the kids care. They could not find any signs of infection, and just assume she has a virus. (Probably the same one that Taylor got while here in Utah, cause now she is throwing up too.) So yesterday, we had her stay home and rest all day hoping that she would be back to herself by today. So since Easter was tomorrow and we have such early church, I came up with a great plan. The Easter Bunny left the kids a note telling them that since we had such early church, he would come while we were gone. Well, since none of the kids ended up at church today, that plan was shot. So I created a new plan. I told the kids that I would call the bunny on his "bunny phone" when daddy and I got home from church. (My kids are getting to old, they asked how I would get his number .... ahhhh, "I'll look it up on the internet. Whew, I got out of that, for now.) Then right during our primary class, just when I need help, Heath gets a call and has to leave to go to work and didn't get home until like 3 this afternoon. Finally, when he got home we called the "bunny phone" and sent Tydon out on walk with Grandpa Holverson. (Taylee and Kamdon were both still napping) and the Bunny was able to visit our house. It isn't going to be long before the bunny "story" has to be told to Taylee and Tydon. Tydon came home from his walk and said, "you guys just hid the eggs didn't you." I was able to fake my way out one more time. I guess next year, I will have to be a more clever Bunny. To top off our evening, we were just ready to eat Easter dinner, and Heath's phone rang again and off to work he goes. To myself I think, it doesn't even fill like Easter and things just have not gone as planned. As for the infamous matching "Easter Outfits" that I stressed about, we will be wearing them to church next week -- knock on wood -- NO MORE SICK KIDS!

Last Night we dyed our Easter Eggs. Taylee felt pretty good, she she was able to join in. Kamdon fell asleep before we started, so we decided to take his picture with an egg that had his name on it.

The kids found all the eggs that the bunny had hidden. Taylee found a few eggs and then laid back down to rest.

The Easter Bunny left Kamdon a new slide. He is so funny on it. He just giggles and talks gibberish a million miles a minute as he goes up and down the slide. It is so funny!

The Easter Bunny hid all the Easter Baskets (that is a GREAT Easter tradition that we all LOVE) and left us all some great presents.

The "Easter Bunny" surprised me with the cutest new Shoes that I had been looking at. I was so excited and no idea that "he" was even paying attention to me. What a great Honey Bunny! We hope you all have a great Easter. We miss all of you!!
