easter 2012...

well, easter this year was definitely different than years past! the kids got their candy filled baskets with cute things from deseret book.  as a family we got a framed picture of the First Presidency.  they also got two delicious egg-shaped sugar cookies from sweet cakes cafe in mesa! what a treat!  i bought a dozen so john & i had our share too.  we went to church.  we had a short family devotional when we got home.  i love john's wisdom!  kaisha then had to go to work, and at this point the hard-boiled eggs that i slaved over last night are still sitting in the fridge waiting to be colored!  no morning egg hunt - no egg hunt at all actually :0(  kam & kenners did decide to finally color them!!  for dinner we had a spiral honey ham, sour cream potatoes, corn, rolls, and a yummy new jello salad.

we've ventured into new territory now that the kids are grown.  it still shocks me that we didn't have an egg hunt!  like the song says:  Ch-ch-ch-changes!!!


cool & creamy recipe
*************************
1 sm. pkg raspberry jello
1 sm. pkg cook & serve vanilla pudding
