Easter in St. George

We headed to St. George for Easter weekend and had so much fun! We stayed at Don's parents' condo and loved being able to spend time with them and with Tami and Glenn's family. It was nice to watch conference together and just be with family. We had great weather and the kids absolutely loved being able to spend time with their favorite "big-kid" cousins, Nate and Lindsay. Elle and Easton got to swim, ride scooters, play on the playground and just be outside. Not to mention all the fun they had with Easter baskets and an egg hunt! I think Jayne loved all the attention from everyone and always had someone who wanted to hold her or play with her. Don and I had so much fun playing with the kids and staying up late to watch movies and play Rook with the adults. It was a much needed break!

Could she be any cuter? I know I'm biased but I love this little girl!

They love to cuddle and wrestle together


EASTER BASKETS
The kids with their Easter baskets


Elle was happy she got a new "Rainbow Fairies" book and some Bendaroos


Easton was so excited he got a Transformers Activity book with a poster inside and some Bendaroos


Jayne loves her new "Hungry Caterpillar" and "Ladybug Girl" books


But most of all, she really loved the grass! (That's always how it is. Kids like the packaging more than the presents! So funny!)

PLAYING "CAPTURE" WITH NATE AND LINDSAY
They were playing the cutest game where Nate would try to capture Elle, Easton and Lindsay and put them in "jail" and they couldn't get out unless they got tagged by someone else


Nate captured Elle


"Come tag me Lindsay!"


Lindsay and Easton stuck in "jail"


Jayne loved watching the kids run around and play


Scooter fun


FUN ON THE PLAYGROUND


Jayne went down the slide with Nate for the 1st time. She was a little nervous but once she got down, she would smile again.




Swimming with Lindsay
