Hawaii Easter

We had a wonderful Easter Egg activity with quite a few families from the ward, considering it wasn't an announced Ward Activity and more something that was a last minute "hey, lets get together" kind of thing.

the kids are playing Easter Pictionary while the moms are hiding the eggs in the rest of the building.

i followed Ian around while he collected his eggs.

these are two of my best friends here on Oahu.  Charice Wallace and Nedra Kapaua.  They started this impromptu egg hunt that turned into something much bigger than originally planned.

Ian loves all things that have feathers.  Loves chicks, chickens, roosters, any bird.  He is pretending he is a chicken sitting on her eggs.

This is Isabel's best friend Hailey, who is my friend's daughter.

After the egg hunt we, of course dyed eggs.



Then there was a three legged race for the finale.



This is the morning of, before our we left for church.  Unfortunately we spent Easter Morn in the ER for Shaun.  He leaned back wrong and aggravated his neck injury from the motorcycle accident 3 years ago.  He couldn't move due to the amount of pain he was in.  So I had the kids find their Easter basket before we took off, and also had a talk about why we really celebrate Easter.
