Oh Look! The Easter Bunny came!

I have said this many times but I love holidays!  They are always so fun and even better with kids because they bring so much excitement to the day
Oh boy!  Look what EB brought you!
 Checking out their baskets with dad video taping in the background to catch the sound of excitement
 Rio was thrilled to see a Princess Yo-Yo
 I'm not sure Austin was quite awake yet...
 Jax was wondering where his dyed eggs were hidden...
 Rio was just excited and well..
 Logan was tantruming because we didn't let him eat all his candy right away :0
Love him!
 Blake was just happy to be hanging out and involved in the fun
 Did you find all of them Jax?
 Nope...not in there
 Looks like you found them!
 You got them all Austin!

Okay don't laugh too hard when you see these pictures.  I swear my kids will never all be looking in a picture unless they are professionally done. Hence, the tons of attempts below to get a cute picture of all of them.  Rio was in posing mode this day and so she thought a "sly" smile was super cute :)  Love her so much
 Yep! I know you're laughing now right?  But wait, there is one more of my posing princess
 And there it is!  She was attempting an Ariel rock pose :)
 Logan was definitely not going to pose - he was still finding eggs out in the rocks from who knows where
 Cute boys!  Don't they look handsome?
A few more attempts at Logan - well, at least we tried right?

What a wonderful Easter we had and it only took about 5 posts to talk about it right?
Love my family and it was so fun to celebrate Easter with these cuties but what was even greater was to teach them about why we celebrate Easter and the atoning sacrifice of our Savior.  I'm so grateful for the Atonement and the love that our Savior has for each of us.  We are so lucky and blessed to have the gospel in our lives and to know we can be together forever because of Him and His great love for us.

Easter Egg Hunt with the Morris fam

Woo-hoo!  On with the days festivities!  We had a full day the day before Easter.  It was so fun!
Our last activity was to do an Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma and Grandpa Morris' house along with celebrating Grandpa's bday.
Let the Hunt begin!  Uncle Marc was on duty to  keep the kids in and give them a look first and then...
the little ones were set free!
Logan once again was a total champ!  He was a pro at finding these eggs
Sweet Rio finding some "tough to get to" eggs
Go Jax!
Austin took his time trying to find the "harder" ones
Logan and I in the garden area scouting some eggs
Oh I have super cute kids!
Uncle Jon helping out Cole and Ethan
SCORE!
Papa Ranger was a great help and an even better picture taker :)
My handsome Logan - isn't he cute?
Little Blake - only about 4 weeks old
My cuties with Grandma showing off their loot
I love these pics!  So cute of the Morris cousins (except the Gilbert crew) with the addition of the 3 newest babies all born within 8 days of each other

Papa Ranger's Bday celebration
We also had a BBQ and party to celebrate Papa



 Watch out Papa!  Grandkids will open your gifts for you
 My cute Rio - love that one of my kids have brown eyes like me!

Happy Birthday Papa Ranger!  We love you!
