However. . . that was it. No eggs, no Easter bunny, no candy, no baskets, nothing! Needless to say, it snuck up on me being in March this year, and I totally dropped the ball (hoping nobody would notice!) Of course. . . Jacob noticed!
My favorite part of this story is that I wasn't the only one! Whew! I was in the primary room talking with my primary president and good friend, Remi Richards, when she confessed that she hadn't done anything for her girls either! So, we hatched a plan! Monday morning she brought her girls, some eggs, and newly discounted Easter candy. We sent the kids upstairs to play, stuffed and color-coded the eggs (so everyone would get some), and set up the hunt in my backyard. Pure kid fun! It was just the right amount of the secular side of Easter for me! Who knows, maybe I'll do it this way next year too!

Lisa, your kids are so big and so cute! Looks like you had a lot of fun! Love you guys!
Great idea - a good way to focus on what's important FIRST - then the cutesy stuff later. Good job, Lisa.
