Happy Easter!

We hosted family dinner on Easter Sunday. It ended up being a pretty big day, with playing the piano for choir practice before church, and for two numbers during sacrament meeting, and not doing much prep work on Evelyn's birthday. But I got a short nap after church and then it all came together well and we had a great time! 

Kevin was amazing and got the kids ready for church by himself (except hair, of course) and even got these cute pictures outside before church too. We have to catch Evelyn at her 'after' smile face now, because this is what she thinks smiling for the photo means! They all are pretty adorable!

Kevin also caught this lovely picture of Cora.

For dinner we had turkey, rolls, fruit, deviled eggs, and green beans. The salad was my experiment, and I loved it! Cherry tomatoes, basil, mozzarella... but also finely cut spinach, roasted corn, and avocado, with balsamic vinegar drizzled on top. Yum! Then poundcake with a creamy limeade topping, and strawberries on top. 

We had an Easter lesson, and then a small family egg hunt in our backyard. The kids were pretty excited about this! Here they are, all ready to go!

 

 

 Evelyn got her eggs, but the dirt was pretty enticing too.  

 

Happy Birthday to Bailee and Evelyn! 

 

 It is nice to be able to celebrate holidays and birthdays with family members! Happy Easter!
