Easter at Great Grandma Smiths

My Grandma Smith is so great, every year without fail, my Grandma Smith has an Easter Party and every year the kids have a great time. All the kids were able to dye eggs and decorate cookies and have an easter egg hunt.

Sadie and Mikayla had a great time with their cousin Ashlee

and Kyle was able to act like a teenager with his cousin James.

Kylee was even the lucky winner of the Jelly Bean jar and $5 by guessing that there were 301 jelly beans in the jar of 300. She was more than thrilled. I'm so grateful that we have family that lives so close, and I'm glad that we are able to get together.

Easter with the Olsens

Wow did we have a busy Easter Weekend! Kirt, Roxane and their kids are in town from Indiana so we were all able to get together Friday night and have our annual Easter Party at Grandma Olsens house.

Grandpa Olsen is known for being a professional at hiding eggs...every year at least one egg is never found and is eventually discovered several months later. This year all the kids had a great time looking for eggs...and to keep with tradition, one egg was never found.

We always have a great time getting together with family. It was especially fun being able to see Kirt and Roxane and their kids. Thankfully whenever the Dutsons are in Utah we can expect to play several games of Hand and Foot, and this year was no exception...sadly Kirt hasn't won a game yet, well sadly for him, we all love that he is a big loser. The kids had a great time playing with all their cousins, I don't think we made it home before 11 the entire weekend.
