Happy Easter!

We had a wonderful Easter this year and hope all of you had a great Easter too. We had my parents come down from Idaho to spend the Easter weekend with us. It was a blast. We went to the Hill Air Force Base Museum to see all the planes that Kaymbree loves and sees everyday flying by. Of course my dad and Dan loved looking at all the different planes too. Then we had my sister and her family come over to have a bbq, egg hunt, and color eggs. It was a lot of fun. My mom wants us adult kids to still participate in Easter egg hunts. So she puts money in the eggs so we definitely like to join in! It was a lot of fun and Kaymbree was able to enjoy Easter more this year and understands a lot. She LOVED to look for Easter eggs. In fact we have had many egg hunts since Easter .......all day today! She looks for the empty eggs and brings them to me and i throw them somewhere else and she literally did that all day today. It was pretty funny and I was glad she found a new form of entertainment!

I am so grateful for the Savior and all he did for us so we are able to live with our Heavenly Father again. I can't even begin to imagine the pain he suffered for my sins, but I am so thankful to him for that. I can never repay him, but I am going to try by living my life righteously!

But we were thinking how does Easter have anything to do with a bunny? Please if you know how this came about let me know because I was really confused this year when i started thinking about it. The resurrection of the Savior and a bunny that hides eggs. First of all random about a bunny. Second of all a bunny and eggs??? Bunnies don't lay eggs or have anything to do with eggs. Why isn't it a chick hiding eggs or where did all this come from. Sometimes (a lot of times) I over think things. But if you know how it came about let me know cause it is actually driving me crazy!!!

How fun! The bunny and eggs are related to fertility. Its a legend about fertility in the very fertile time of Spring :)

I was going to tell you that the whole bunny and eggs thing has to do with fertility but someone already did. It is something the Germans brought here. Maybe that will clear up why it doesn't make much sense. I miss you lots by the way we really bad need to get together. Karley and I still think we should try to do a girl over nighter sometime.
