Easter Eve and Morning

I think that the day before Easter was much busier than Easter actually will be. First we had the annual Egg Hunt at Sam Brannan Park. Despite the lack of money for prizes, the kids still had a good time and NO ONE CRIED!!!!

I decided that Seth was too young to egg hunt, and I would be the only one eating the candy anyways, so he hung out with Cam and Grandma. And he never succeeded in getting that hat off his head.

Emma had a full basket!!!

And so did Grace, even though she was the turtle of the story. I guess slow and steady gets the eggs!

Later on that day we went to Grandma Nelson's to egg hunt. The kids really had a great time.

Seth observed the hunt from the saucer. And someone took pity on him and brought him an egg. Which he promptly threw.

The girls looked everywhere for eggs. And they were everywhere. I had to stop Emma lots of times and get her to help her sister and cousin. That girl was just too fast!

Our first Nelson family grandchildren picture. We were only missing one. But all the little ones were here.

Baby Alana in her bunny outfit. I wish Seth was small enough to get away with that...


Easter morning arrived...with sick kids. Emma had been throwing up that night, and Grace had a headache. But they both managed to drag themselves out of bed for Easter baskets.

Emma was most excited about the new sunglasses the Easter Bunny had brought her. Probably because her tummy was still rebelling

Seth was just intrigues by the schedule upheaval. Eggs that rattle? Stuff on the floor? Sisters opening things? Great!!
