easter

it seems like we celebrated easter a few times this year! first i was able to help in brody's class for their easter party, which was really entertaining. it's funny to watch brody attempt to follow directions, sometimes he's so excited he can't wait for his turn, or other times he's distracted and jumping around while he's supposed to be waiting in line. like i said, it's entertaining.

here's a little video of his relay game:

like i said, he has a hard time waiting for his turn!

eggs from the hunt:

a pic with mom. i hadn't told him i was coming to help, since i wasn't able to find anyone to watch the twins, but justin got off work super early, so i surprised brody, i loved seeing his sweet excited smile to see me there, so cute!

on sunday we celebrated easter at church and had dinner with rob and jana, and on monday for fhe we had our baskets and egg hunt, which worked out really well. the boys were really excited to see what was in there baskets and they loved the easter hunt. this was the twins first egg hunt and they were so cute and excited when they'd find an egg. of course, you should have seen how excited they were to learn that the eggs were filled with treats!

boy, do our boys love curious george!

crew and kade love the cute books by sandra boynton, they each got one.

it was really neat to talk to brody about the true meaning of easter this year after heling him distinguish between christmas (the birth) and easter (the resurrection), the little message we tried to teach him was: "Jesus isn't dead, he's alive!" it was really cool to be able to teach his such a simple yet beautiful gospel message!
