Easter Celebrations

...neighborhood egg hunt...

Mabel and her friend Emri with their loot.

She got straight to business....eating all the candy.

 

Mabel and her friend Reese - Mabel's fake smile is killing me!

 

...tew family egg hunt....

The family got together for brunch and our annual egg hunt!

We Skyped with Rick and Georgia....but
of course it wasn't quite the same without them there!

Great Grandma Tew and Great Grandpa Tew gave all the grandkids suckers!

She would find an egg and promptly stop
to open it and check for candy inside.
Thankfully some of them were filled with stickers
and toys instead!

The picture where I look like a striped Easter egg.
Good times.

...easter day...

Mabel found her Easter basket early Sunday morning
and her favorite thing inside was a green harmonica!

Later after church we had my grandma, Aunt, and some cousins
over for dinner.  

The weather was perfect! Nate set up the bounce house and
we decided we would eat outside. 

Funny shirt Jack. :)

I made trifles for dessert....couldn't decide on fruity or chocolatey so
I made BOTH! They were so good.  I wish I had some right now.

Such a beautiful spring weekend with friends and family
celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ.  Prophet Thomas S. Monson
said, "No words in Christendom mean more to me than those spoken by the
angel to the weeping Mary Magdalene and the other Mary when, on the
first day of the week, they approached the tomb to care for
the body of their Lord. Spoke the angel: 'Why seek ye the living
among the dead? He is not here, but is risen.' "
