Easter

We had Easter at the Kearls a week before. Lets say we had fun. It was fun, really. Cousins and candy what else can you ask for. Just kids that can be grateful I guess. So when Easter came we decorated real easter eggs. We did 24 of them, still not enough to satisfy their craz for coloring them. But can I tell you the week that followed they got satisfied with egg salad sandwiches. What else can you do with cooked eggs? My kids get great joy in this picture of Brecken and the Easter bunny. Last year we went to the mall so excited to show Brecken the Easter bunny. When we got there he was on a carrot run so we looked in some shops and we saw him coming back. Well the 3 big kids went running to give him a hug, so of course Brecken followed. Well when the big guys moved out of the way, Brecken saw what they were running too and stopped dead in his tracks screamed bloody murder and ran back to me. Oh was that the greatest easter gift my kids got. Well it has been a whole year and the only thing the kids remember about easter last year, not what the true meaning of easter is for or what they got, but that Brecken ran screaming from the Easter bunny. Well this year we didn't make it to the mall by Sat. I didn't want to go to the mall on Sat, the line would be too long, So I was trying to think where we could go, so I could get a picture with an Easter bunny. We went to an egg hunt in the morning at Kearns High School, no bunny. We went to soccer game and then to lunch, no bunny anywhere. Then I thought of Macey's they always have something. They did, cotton candy, bounce house, free popcorn and an easter bunny. Well the Kids saw the bunny and were dragging Brecken to see him at first Brecken was jumping up and down in the middle of the isles to get to see him, then with one look at him, screamed and ran the other way. Brittin and Kolbryn laughed so loud everyone in came to see what was so funny. Logan was waiting in the car and I went out to get him so he could get a picture, but Brittin and Kolbryn wanted to show him how bad Brecken scream. So we got Logan to come in and then we had to go on a bunny hunt, with a store full of shoppers. We found him and Brecken would have nothing to do with him, so I made a deal that I would stand in the picture with him. Now that is the story of Easter 2009.
