Easter this year was SO much fun. We did lots of partying for most of the week before Easter because my Grandma Whipple came to visit us from Oregon! She arrived on the Tuesday before Easter so we went down that night for dinner and it was the first time she had seen Jackson.
On Thursday we went down to my parents house again and this time we had a girls night out. We left the guys at home watching the kids and we went out to dinner at Zupas (SO good!) and then we went to see The Last Song. It was so much fun and I think I need to do this more often:)
Then we headed out to my parents house for some more partying!
We had an amazing Easter, and it was so much fun to get to spend so much time with my Grandma!

It was so much fun and I think I need to do this more often:)On Saturday we started out the day by going up to Tremonton for their Easter Egg hunt. Totally worth it even with all the snow! Raylee came out of there with 12 full size candybars! Then we went to Corey's brothers house for awhile.
Then we headed out to my parents house for some more partying!
We played Easter Bingo.
We dyed Easter Eggs. For little kids it works really well to put the egg in a wisk, just in case you were wondering why Raylee is holding a wisk.
All the girls used malted robin eggs as lipstick and gave ourselves blue lips.
We decorated cupcakes andsugar cookies.
And my dad took Raylee and Ashlyn on horsey rides. As soon as he was done Raylee would climb back on and say do it again. I think she would have kept on riding the "horsey" all night long!
On Easter morning, Raylee was really excited to see that the Easter Bunny had brought her a new trike! She rode it in the kitchen all morning long.
The Easter bunny also hid some egss with candy for her to find. She did really good and only needed a little help finding them!
After we watched conference we headed down to my parents again. After a yummy Easter dinner, the kids got to go om a scavenger hunt to find their Easter packages from grandma and grandpa.
Then later that night we had our second annual egg cracking contest. Everyone dyed an egg on Saturday, and on Sunday Corey made a bracket and everyone got to compete with their eggs. Two people would go against each other and you just hit the ends of your egg together and only one of the eggs will crack.
I won last year, but this year Emily won it and became Captain Egghead and got to take the awesome trophy home!
