Easter!

So here is the Easter Run-down! 

1. First, when the kids wake up (as was tradition in the Lantz household) The kids have to hunt for Jelly beans.  Each kid has to find a specific color and the amount of jelly beans for how old they will turn in this year (AJ-7, Julia-4) So here is the hunt! 

2. Once they find all the jelly beans then they get the baskets the easter bunny brought (that are hidden in a special hiding spots that only the easter bunny and the parents know about!) Here is the happinesss that Easter Candy brings...
3.  Then comes a little while of free reign over the candy until mommy can't stand it and makes them put it away for later! :)  This year Brandon made a YUMMY french toast breakfast for us!   
4. Then, for the REAL meaning of Easter!...We get to go to church and remember why we really have this day!  Of course, we have to get dressed up and i must say, i have some pretty cute looking kids!!! 
5. This year we didn't have a regular Easter event with all the Jenson's like we normally would because Grandma (AKA "Ma-mah") is in the hospital.  So we decided that we would bring some little Easter festivities to her hopsital room.  We brought some eggs with us and the kids waited outside while i hid them.  Then they got to come into her room and have a little egg hunt.  It was cute and "Ba-Pa and Ma-mah" had a good time watching the event!  Here is that event:
6. So it was a little different Easter than we would usually have, but it was a good one.  We got to eat candy, have fun, remember why we REALLY have Easter, and spend time with family...a successful day, i think!
