So even though this isn't Caysja's first Easter, it's the first one where she really "gets it" if you know what I mean. It's been so fun to hide eggs for her all week! She LOVES finding them--even with nothing in them! Here she is opening her Easter basket after church today. She got some fun swim toys, watercolor paints, and of course, her Easter dress.

My little doll!
I just love Caysja's Easter dress...little girls are so fun to dress up! (I made her hair bows too!)
Caysja got a little spoiled on Saturday...we ended up going to not one, not two, but THREE different Easter egg hunts!! The first one was at Sprouts at 8:30 am, then Midwestern University at 10am, then our apt. complex at 11am! She came home with 7 containers of play doh, bubbles, bracelets, rings, a beach ball, stickers,--and more!

What a perfect day!
I was so impressed with how much work they put into the Midwestern Easter celebration for the kids. They had an Easter bunny (that Caysja was terrified of!), blow up toys, and all kinds of cool prizes--not to mention treats!
Here we are at Sprout's Grocery store for the first egg hunt of the day
On Friday night we actually went on a DATE and got a baby-sitter (*shock*)! We went to the Mesa temple Easter pageant. First we went to Cafe Rio for dinner (which we got 'to go'), then the pageant after that. We went with our friends, Becky & Zac, and Kristy & Matt. The pageant was beautiful...even though we were kind of in the back. Some of the costumes were pretty neat. I wish I had gotten a picture of them. I couldn't believe how many people were there! I heard an estimate near ten thousand!
What great friends we have here! We are so lucky!

Cayjsa is absolutely beautiful in her Easter dress (and what cute shoes too)! I love the pictures. I had no idea that there was a Mesa Temple Easter Pageant. I can't believe that about 10,000 showed up! That is awesome!
Hi Loves, I love Caysja's Easter dress. And I love the matching shoes. And I love Caysja. And I LOVE you. Love, MOM
We had so much fun! Thank you for inviting us and driving. We sure enjoy spending time with you and your family. :)
Caysja's dress is realy cute. I also loved your skirt. Seeing all of your Easter egg hunts made me a little envious of warm weather. I think most egg hunts were canceled around here due to snow - that's right. You couldn't even see a blade of grass. The good news is that it's all melting now. Maybe spring will be here soon.
