They had a lot of fun things for kids to do, even though we had to wait in line for most of it! Cow Train, Pony rides, animals, jump houses, and of course the Easter Bunny. Jaxon would not go NEAR the Easter Bunny. He was freaked out! By the time we were done there we were both ready for a good nap! After naps we went to a fun park near our house that has playground, duck pond, and a huge field to run around in. It was perfect weather too!
After dinner we decided to let Jaxon color eggs. Last year.... he was not impressed with this tradition. Joel and I ended up doing most of them. We figured we might as well try again this year and see if he likes it better.
Oh he did! In fact he loved it!! He colored 2 dozen eggs, and wanted to keep going! Joel helped him dye them, and his favorite part was naming all the colors as they came out!
Once they dried I helped him add the stickers!
Sunday morning we had his Easter Basket all ready! He got a few random little toys, and he loves them...especially the cars! Of course. He spent all day walking over by his basket saying "Oooh presents!"
Yes we let him eat candy at 9am. Yes we regretted it! Within an hour he was sooooo hyper!Of course the true meaning of Easter has nothing to do with Eggs, candy, presents, or easter bunnies. It is about the sacrifice our Savior made for us, and that He was Resurrected so that we may be also. I love going to church on Easter Sunday! It's always one of my favorites. Church is at 1, and we spent all morning hanging out/getting ready slowly. Only to get to the chapel and find it empty. Stake Conference, and we totally forgot. UGH. So we drove over by the Provo river and walked along the trail for a bit.
Easter dinner was spent at the Browns house. After we ate, Grandma and Grandpa had a little egg hunt for him! He loved it!
Hope everyone had a Happy Easter! We sure did!
