Saturday is a...

Does anyone know this song?  Here is the MUSIC and WORDS just press play on the left!


..."Saturday is a special day,
It's the day we get ready for Sunday;
We clean the house and we shop at the store,
so we won't have to work until Monday;
We brush our clothes and we shine our shoes,
And we call it our"get-the-work-done" day;
Then we trim our nails and we shampoo our hair,
so we can be ready for Sunday!"

Music by Chester W Hill
Lyrics by Rita S Robinson

Well today was a special day, because we celebrated Easter today.
We went to the ward Easter Egg Hunt.
But before we left we tried to take a picture.
but it was an epic fail. It was probably because it was SNOWING and the kids were FREEZING.
That's okay I got a cute one at the church...
Then the kids hunted for eggs.
Everyone got to find 14 then dump their candy in their baskets and return the eggs.
Luckily Keegan was there to help us return the eggs because Scarlett didn't understand the concept of NOT eating the candy...
So while she was shoving her face he helped us out.

Then we came home for nap
 and the kids went out to find their egg for their prize.
I think I have mentioned before that we don't do huge Easter baskets.
They have to find the hard boiled decorated egg for a treat/prize.
Lucas and Bridget were being so kind to each other and so loving.
Can you guess what we have been focusing on for FHE lately?
It reminded me of this picture...

from 2009, wow they look different!
Both have grown a substantially good amount of hair since then! Haha.
Anyway here they are with their prizes...
An awesome dollar store find.
2 paint able posters!

Then Lucas suggested we play the egg and spoon game. So Nathan ran in to get the spoons and we played.
We also played a few other games for candy prizes.
In this house EVERYONE participates and cheers for each other. Hehe.
The kids had a pretty awesome easter. We celebrated today because it is our Stake Conference and we wanted to talk about Easter today since we won't be doing it at church.
And we can't wear these cute outfits to church so it was a perfectly good use of the day!
We will still clip our nails and shampoo our hair tonight. Haha.
After dinner of course! :)

Happy Easter!
