Easter Celebration. . . .




Our kids have been a bit spoiled every year around this time of year. They were able 2 participate in our branch primary easter party 1st last Wednesday. They had a blast. They had bowling, fishing, basketball, x & o's & a pinada!! :D And they had 2 go 2 each station & play every game so that they could get a symbol @ the end explaining one of many things. One was a picture of a lamb. . . .representing Jesus Christ. Another had a cross. . . . .representing his atoning sacrifice on the cross. Another was a picture of a candle light. . . . .representing the light of the world. . . . .and so forth. If they had all their symbols, they were 2 match 'em up on a worksheet, get it corrected by one of the primary leaders & if they passed. . . . .were given a pass 4 popcorn 4rom the kitchen. :D It was great!!




The kids were broken up into different age groups 4 their egg hunts. Lote si'i found the golden egg & was able 2 take home the treat bag that was the center piece on each table. :D With half a dozen kids. . . . .I knew that one of 'em would get the golden egg. Lol. :D They served dinner 4 us. Hot dogs, teri burgers, chips & toquitos. Lol. That last one was kinda random, but HEY. . . .I'm not complaining. Hahaha. . . .




2 days later. . . . .our kids were able 2 enjoy another easter party here @ our home. :D Fine, Sheena & myself have been planning this lil party 4 the kids 4 a little over a month now. It didn't turn out as planned, but the kids still had a blast!! :D We were supposed hold it @ our neighborhood park, but due 2 the snow storm the day before, it was a bit too cold 4 the kids. So we switched it up & had it @ our home. We kept our menu simple. Hot dogs, brawts, several different fruits w/our famous fruit dip (lol), chips & a simple easter bunny chocolate cake. :D We had 2 different easter egg hunts. One 4 the older kids & one 4 our younger ones. Taeao came thru w/easter baskets 4 all the kids that Nick's mom, Dorothy, had made. She seriously is the best!! On every holiday, she makes things 4 all the grandkids. We are so blessed 2 have her in our lives. :D The kids absolutely adore her. As do we. :D Here are some more pics 4rom our very busy easter week. :D
