Easter Weekend!

This year Easter and General Conference landed on the same weekend. Brandon didnt have school on Friday or Monday so we headed to Kaysville to spend the weekend with family. Brandon is preparing to go back to school for his masters degree so while we were in salt lake he decide to take the GRE so he could apply for the program he is wanting! We headed up on Thursday night after he was finished teaching. We borrowed a DVD player for Coleton to watch movies on the ride up and it worked great. Both boys did great and we made it there about eight and got settled in before the whole gang got there!
We had all of my siblings there except Caetie and here family who were to far away to travel. We had four of the five toddlers that were all the same age (Alexis, Coleton, Benjamin, and Ashley missing is Masen) who loved watching movies together.
We also had the three boys who are very close in age also (Hayden 7 weeks, Logan 5 1/2 months, Ethan 10 weeks) Once the whole gang got there we had quite the weekend. It was pretty busy with egg decorating and making pies while the boys were at the priesthood session.an easter egg hunt outside with plastic eggs that coleton didnt really understand.But Coleton did love being with cousins! He had so much fun running around and having them carry him around.
And of course the Easter bunny came and left toys and treats for the kids. Coleton and Hayden shared a basket because Hayden is so young. They got crayons, a coloring book, kite, a car, candy, playdough, bubbles, a pinwheel, and a pez that looks like percy which he loved.We watched conference with everyone which was wonderful and we had the chance to go to Brandons dads mission reunion celebrating 40 years of his mission (indonesia) being opened.We had such a great weekend and were so happy to be able to spend it with family over Easter weekend!
