Easter

Since we currently live 1.5 miles away from wal-mart and not 48.6 miles away like in Watford, the kids and I have spent a lot of time there. Not always buying things, but just walking around because they forbid it in the shanty town next door. It's interesting because I hate wal-mart. Seriously...but that's a whole other story. Anyway, on one of our perusings at wal-mart last month I saw this cute little wicker-ish fedora in baby Jack's size. I put it on him and he looked so cute. Immediately I knew we needed it for Easter and since Jack was getting a hat, Loreli needed one too! I haven't taken any good shots of the kids in their Easter clothes because I was hoping to find some pretty green grass somewhere, but alas we are in Wyoming and green grass doesn't exist. Or at least I haven't found any yet.

Here are their Easter outfits:


I really wanted to make Jack some aqua suspenders, but this town doesn't sell suspender clips. Boo!

He loved taking the hat off and trying to put it back on. He's so cute!

Loreli was so excited about her hat and wore it almost all day Saturday. She insisted on wearing the bow in the front.


On Easter Sunday we decorated a few sugar cookies...meaning Loreli dumped sprinkles on cookies.


This one is for you Kristen.

Shea had to work on Easter Sunday so we waited until Monday morning to do a little egg hunt. Although they are groggy, they loved their surprises. It didn't take long for them to warm up and get excited.



Loreli picked these out...bad, huh?




Loreli began to search for eggs and realized that Jack didn't have any in his bucket, so grabbed his bucket and found some for him. Such a sweet big sister!



Love this boy!
Earlier in the week I made a set of resurrection eggs and on Easter Sunday we went through and opened them and read the corresponding scriptures. This is a little tradition we have had in the Dunaway family for years and a great way to pause and take a moment to reflect on the life of the Savior and why we celebrate Easter.

We hope everyone had a good Easter!!
