Happy Easter

Yesterday, we went to Lance and Teresa's annual Easter Hunt. The kids always have fun with that one because they have to find the candy and then put it someone else's basket. Lance always does a cute job in talking about the real meaning of Easter and why you should give to others.

After that Easter Hunt, we went to my parent's house for the Annual Davidson Easter gathering. My mom goes way overboard in the candy eggs. They get waaay too much at their house, but it is fun. We had dinner and then the men went to the priesthood session of conference.

We had the fun opportunity to have the Housley cousins stay with us Saturday night and then do our morning Easter hunt with us. We colored eggs Saturday night, but the Easter bunny forgot to hide them. Morgan, Maddie and Reagan didn't have Easter baskets, so we improvised with Halloween buckets. Elynn and I made a late night trip to Walmart to get more candy and 'old mother hubbard' was bare there, so we went to Albertsons and they had plenty.

Sunday morning was fun with all of the kids discovering their Easter baskets with new flip flops for all. They also got an Easter bunny filled with candy. Cooper named him Mr. Fatty, "Because he ate too much candy."

Conference was great to watch. Lots of inspirational thoughts that I have now forgotten. I'm glad it comes out in the magazine and the internet, so I can refresh my old mind. The Housley's have an "adopted" uncle that is brand new to the Tabernacle Choir. He is black so he is easy to find. It was funny because the Housley girls would jump and yell, "There's Uncle George" whenever they saw him. Morgan also said, "It's fun to have someone famous." Allie saw him and said, "We see him at Costco."

It was a great Easter.
