Happy Easter

Wow what a busy weekend. We celebrated Easter on Saturday this year because Adam worked on Sunday. So Saturday morning we had the annual Rushton easter egg hunt, but I don't think we can call it that anymore because my Grandma Rushton is no longer hosting it (still not happy about that Grammie). It was fun having it at my brother Tyler's though, he and his family just moved into their home in Syracuse and they have a fun playground for the kids to enjoy.
This is my Grandma and Grandpa Rushton.

Kaleb was very good at finding hidden eggs.

"Hey Grace, try digging a little to the left." It's hard to see but there is an egg in the sand.

My brave little man, these kids have no fear!
Thanks to my mom who provided all the easter candy and toys! The kids love them, and will be eating the candy for the next year! (This is my dad, Thomas, with Grace)
This is my beautiful mom, Jody, and my nephew, Craig
Kaleb and Grace kind of faught over this a little but they learned to share! Big hit!!

That afternoon the kids took a nap with dad and I played bunny. When we took them downstairs they didn't know that anything was waiting for them. We were all standing in the kitchen deciding what to have for dinner when Grace spotted the baskets.... "Gasp" "What's that?" She didn't know what to think at first and then her and Kaleb ran fast as they could to their baskets. They both loved everything, but Kaleb favored the candy and Grace favored her jump rope most.

They also got some new shades.

Sunday was just as busy, but nice since the secular part of the holiday was over. The kids and I made it to church on time, big pat on my back, it starts at 9 am! Not good for me:). Grace sang with the primary in sacrament meeting and Kaleb followed her up to the stage, and back thankfully. Church was very nice and I loved that Grace already understood the stories being taught about the ressurection. I am so glad that she and Kaleb get to go to primary and learn of the Lord right from the start.

After church we quickly had lunch and then were off to vistit Adam at the station. That is always a fun trip, especially for the kids. They love the trucks, engines, gear and firefighter friends that they see.

The guys had the "gator" out making sure everything was running right and they let Adam take the kids for a ride. Then, after it was turned off, Kaleb spent the rest of the visit pretending to drive it. (Also in the pic are fellow fire buddies, Randy Eastwood and Chi Hwang)

That night we had ham dinner at my mom and dads house. My brother decided that we needed to have an egg hunt for the "big kids", so mom and dad hid 100 eggs for us to find. You should have seen it. My brother, sister and I all grown adults running around like it was our first time. It was quite a laugh, I was giggling at myself.We had a lot of fun.

(Just as a little side note, Grace is poppin' her little head in the office right now and I put her to bed an hour and a half ago! It's 9:30, what is she doing awake? Silly girl.)
