I saw the cutest idea on Pintrest that we will making a tradition in our family. Friday night the kids planted jelly beans. We celebrate the Easter Bunny part on Saturday so we can focus on the Savior on Sunday. They went to bed Friday night....
...and before Madi went looking for her basket, she ran to the door to see if anything grew. Sure enough, a lollipop grew from those two little jelly beans. Madi talked about it all day!
After they found their suckers we sent them searching for their baskets. The Easter Bunny was very good to them this year. Two lucky kids!!!
Here is Easton's basket... Wreck It Ralph, Cars dive toys, Cars vitamins (and they both thought those were AWESOME) Cars fruit snacks and four candies. Grandma and Grandpa Hawkins got him Chuggington Safari Adventure.
Madi got lots too! She got a Pinkalicious sticker book, Princess Sofia movie, a jump rope, Princess vitamins and fruit snacks and four candies. Grandma and Grandpa Hawkins gave her the new Barbie Pink Shoes movie. She was thrilled!
After quick showers we hurried to the West Point City Easter Egg Hunt. It was still a little cold so Madi was freezing! The kids enjoyed it. Then it was to meet up with mom and dad for Texas Road House and an Easter egg hunt at their house.
And they're off!!!
Easton picked up about five eggs and then started opening them to eat the candy. That meant that Madi got the bulk of the eggs. At least she shared. :D
Mom and dad were so awesome to watch the kids for us so we could take a much needed trip to the temple. After that we had cheesecake and then headed home. The kids wanted to play with their chalk so we let them draw for a while before we were off to bed!
