Easter weekend

Jason had the whole weekend off and so we had a wonderful Easter weekend together as a family. We were supposed to go down to spend the weekend with Jason's family, but Jason has been sick and so we decided to stick around here and take it easy.
We painted Easter eggs on Friday evening.


I'm looking at these pictures thinking, why did I not wash her face off first? Oh well, still cute.



There we go. Clean face, silly girl.

I think she was pretty pleased with her eggs.


This is what the Easter bunny left for Allary. Candy, candy, a coloring book, and more candy. She saw those big chocolate bunnies in the grocery store and was begging me for one. I told her maybe the Easter bunny could bring her one. So she wrote a letter to the Easter bunny firstly informing him to come to our house instead of Grandma's house, and secondly, pleading for a big chocolate bunny.


Searching for eggs.






She wore the same Easter dress from last year. I love this dress so much. I think she looks so angelic in white.
Oh, and I don't know why she poses for pictures like this now.


And, as if she needed more sugar, Sunday night we frosted chick-shaped sugar cookies.

It was such a great weekend and I'm so glad that I got to have some time with my hubby.
Allary learned a new word this weekend..."resurrection." We talked about how Jesus died for us and was resurrected because He loves us so much. Allary kept asking "how did He die?" and "who did that to Him?" and "why did they do that to Him?" and "That is really NOT nice!" She was really upset that someone could be so mean to Jesus. I love teaching Allary gospel principles and helping her to know how much her Heavenly Father loves and cherishes her. I don't think it's possible to love anyone or anything more than I love this girl.
