Easter this year crept up on me. Before I could even think about it we were almost out of days to color eggs. Luckily we found a day to get together and make really pretty eggs. Dennis (Gavin's dad) always does all the work by digging the red roots and getting the onion shells. I am thankful we still keeps this Swiss tradition alive.
Easter Morning was fun. Landon woke us up at 8:28 am and reminded us we were almost late for the Annual Egg Bust, then he informed me that the Easter bunny forgot to come to our house!! I about panicked! I told him that there was no way he forgot us. I bet he just hid the baskets. Then I pushed he and Preston out the door with their dad and said we would have to find them when they got back. Auugh! Luckily the Easter Bunny did hide those darn baskets in the front room and they found them when they got home. (Just a note, for all who are judging that crazy rabbit right now, we were in Las Vegas all weekend (those pics are coming next) and didn't get home until Saturday evening, I am sure that really confused the funny bunny. Lets cut him or her ;o) a little slack! :))
Having General Conference on Easter was really great. We were able to have a yummy breakfast of Strawberries and Waffles, watch Conference in our PJ's and just enjoy each other. I did end up get really sick that afternoon, and threw up on the way to Ken and Katie's house for their Easter Dinner Party. After I did that, I felt much better. Oh, the joys of being Pregnant! ;o) Can you believe it #4 is on the way! I can't. Well that about wraps up Easter. Sometime soon I will have this darn blog caught up. It just seem like I like sleeping a lot more lately than updating this blog, go figure.
Happy Easter 2010!
I am only a month late. :)

Ha Ha! The Easter bunny did the same thing at our house...I thought the egg hunt was enough but Tavie was very disappointed when there was no baskets out. I to had to have Decker entertain while I whipped up 3 baskets and find a place to hide them! Good Times!
That's funny! Congrats on #4! So excited for you.
Your borders are so cute!!! I love the root dyed eggs. Can you believe that I have never done that!! Here I have been a Santa Clara Swiss girl my whole life, and I have never done Swiss eggs!! (Only at Heritage Square with the kids at Swiss Days!) They look so fun...and messy!!
Lainee!!! You're pregnant! Oh man - I've been so out of it. I can't believe I'm just finding out. CONGRATULATIONS! I'm so excited for you. I finally had a minute tonight to get caught up on your darling blog. So many fun pictures. When are you due? So sorry if you've been sick a lot. That first trimester is the worst. I got the card you sent me in the mail today and it totally cheered me up. Thank you so much for thinking of me. You are too sweet! Congrats again on #4 - you are an amazing mom and I'm so excited for you!
Keep those Dutchman tradition going!
