Hoppy Easter

The little Meeks were certainly eggcited for Easter this year. I bought the D"egg"orating party kit this year and we had a blast dying, painting, glittering and beading our eggs. As they were drying Leah gathered them all into a little pile on the towel and spread her ever present tutus over them announcing, "This is my nest. I am keeping them warm." On Saturday morning we headed up to Lewisville for the annual Easter egg hunt. One of the joys of Idaho is the fickle spring weather. But the kiddos braved patches of snow to fill their baskets with goodies. We also stopped the Easter Bunny for a quick pic. Unfortunately, this is the good picture.

Talmage was so excited for the Easter Bunny to come that he left out a plate of carrots and a glass of water. It must have paid off because Sunday morning they found Easter baskets, hidden eggs and a new Liken movie, "Jonah and the Big Fish."
Even Eva got into the spirit of finding a few eggs though what she really wanted was the other kids jelly beans. We all breakfasted on Easter Eggs and the fun cereals that the Easter Bunny had left and then got dressed in our new Easter clothes.

Yet more proof that I have the cutest little bunch of Meek children.

Sunday dawned sunny and warm, a perfect day to celebrate the resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ. Today I am especially thankful that His atoning sacrifice makes it possible for our family to be together forever.
