Bryan's parents came into town in the middle of March for a short visit. They wanted to do an Easter Egg hunt for the kids while they were in town, so they set one up at a little park and the kids were so excited when we got there!
They had their baskets all ready to go!
They had tons of fun searching the park for eggs & Easter treats!
With Grandma and their full baskets & Hoyt's motorcycle bunny.
For the FHE before Easter, we had an Easter lesson, and then we made "Resurrection Rolls". If you haven't tried them you can find a recipe online. It teaches the kids a great lesson & is super yummy!
"Preparing the body"
All rolled up in the "linens" and ready to go in the tomb (oven).
And they are empty inside...the miracle of the Resurrection!
The Easter Bunny found us Saturday morning and left some yummy candy and fun surprises!
Checking out the basket goodies.

Saturday afternoon we headed to Grandpa & Grandma Hoyt's house for some fun rolling eggs at white sands. The kids had a blast!
After rolling eggs, we headed to Kanab for my Grandpa Mickelson's 84th birthday party! He had a lot of family there, and we all had a great time visiting, eating, and celebrating the life of an amazing man! I didn't get any pictures at the party, because I wasn't feeling well and spent the majority of the party chasing kids and trying to visit with everyone.
Sunday we went to church with the family, then had a nice Sunday dinner together before all heading to our separate homes. We tried to get a good family picture, but this was the best we could do with 3 tired kids after church.
I think we have a pretty cute little family. We are all grateful for the Savior, His Atonement, and the Resurrection which greatly blesses our lives. Happy Easter 2013!
