We had 4 Easter egg hunts this year. The twins got better and better with each one. By the time we had the last one they finally waited until very the end to eat their candy instead of just grabbing one egg and plopping down and piggy out. A few quick highlights: The first hunt was with the Jensens.

After they found all the eggs they went on a treasure hunt and then they had a silly string war

Then we had a water balloon fight

As soon as the fight started, chicken Tyler booked it for the door

then he just held on to the handle for dear life until the fight was over.

On the way home Eli kept cracking up and remembering how much fun he had and how he got dad with the "funny string".
We dyed Easter Eggs with the Parrys.


Then we had a picnic with our ward and an Easter Egg hunt there too.


Then it was on to the traditional Rodgers Easter Egg Hunt. Tyler wouldn't do it without help from daddy.

Tyson grabbed his basket and was off.

Eli ran around as fast as he could getting as many as possible.

Emma being a dork on purpose for the camera.

As long as the twins would pay attention to Grandma Joyce she would keep giving them eggs!

Easter morning the kiddos woke up and this time the Easter Bunny or "Mr. Rabbit" as Elias calls him, left the baskets in our bedroom so we would know when the kiddos woke up - we didn't want to miss out. They opened up their baskets and then we had homemade waffles, homemade whipped cream and strawberries on top - Em's favorite. Then they did the final Easter Egg hunt outside.


Eli was so nice and shared his new Big Wheel with his brothers all day long.

After Conference was over we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Rodgers house and ate Easter dinner over there with everyone including Grandma Mason, Grandma Joyce and Grandma Jensen. (Next Sunday I will try and post a pic of the new Easter Sunday clothes).

I love Emma's posing! Cute hair on the eggs. We did the silly string thing too and the smell of it made my 2 year old puke. It didn't work so well. It was a good thought though. Looks like a fun Easter!

I still am coveting your darling Easter buckets. Maybe if I am crafty enough I could do those for next year. Glad you guys had a great Easter!
4 Easter Hunts means LOTS of candy to bring home and eat! I think you owe me at least 10 miles extra right now??!!
