Holidays are funner with Children

We have had a very good Easter weekend! We are so grateful for our Savior and the life that he lived. This weekend we got the opportunity to watch conference which we really enjoyed. We had a very relaxing weekend staying at our home with one another. Here are some pictures of what we did to celebrate Easter. I made Avery this Easter dress, something that my mom always did for the girls in my family growing up. I got it done in time for her to wear to church the week before conference. She looked adorable in it. I am so glad that I know how to sew. Even though it is frusterating sometimes it is always fun and and feels so good to see the finished product. Of course she wouldn't just stand and let me get a cute picture of her smiling and wearing it, but these are cute pictures or her and her everyday playing.



The Easter Bunny came Sunday morning. Avery was excited to see what was in her basket. She got too much candy and some little pet shop toys that she loves.
More excited about the candy then the toys!


Saturday night Brett, Avery, and I dyed some eggs. This is something else that my family always did on Easter weekend that I really enjoyed doing growing up and want to carry on with my family. My sister, Nancy, gave me this great idea to put the egg in a wire whisk so that it doesn't make such a mess to dye. Avery thought that it was pretty interesting.

Avery and her dad put stickers on the eggs.

Check out her eggs!
These are just some fun pictures at the park the other weekend. Avery loves to go play at the park. She has discovered that it is really fun to go down the slide face first. She gets up to the slide and then just dives down.
