I am happy to say that I have accomplished my goal. I was wanting to get Easter posted before the end of May. Just by the skin of my teeth. My sister, Maren and her family (Andrew, Will, Hyde, Ivy, and Nate) came out to spend Easter Saturday with us. It is a tradition in my family to have an egg hunt the saturday before easter. It is always a great time when the Bosley's come to visit. Although I get less sleep (so much late night chatting), it's definitely worth it. Here are some pictures of our fun day. I wish I was a better photographer and would have thought to get pictures of our families but maybe next year.
The tradition includes the men hiding the eggs but for some reason, this year, they got out of it. Here's Maren and I filling the eggs.
We made the kids wait at the door until the dad's could get outside to "capture the moment." Check out how fast Will is. He's ready to go.
Cute Alexa is was so considerate - Here she is last to come out after all the other kids. She sure is growing up fast.
Check out this darling Hyde.
Here are the boys looking in the "woods".
Finding places to hide eggs in a new yard is pretty difficult - the trees are so tiny and just lots of grass.

Livie and Maya - They are serious about their egg hunts.

All the kids patiently waiting for their picture to be taken so they can DIG IN!
The babies were sleeping during the egg hunt so we had a little one for them when they woke up. Here's McKenna and Ivy making sure that the other isn't taking their eggs. I wish I knew what they were thinking.
The next day was Easter so the girls, of course had to dress up and pose for a picture. After church and McKenna wasn't too thrilled about getting her picture taken. She just wanted a nap.

Looks like another fun Easter. Brings back so many memories. Wish we could have been there.
BTW--I think if you're going to post something that looks that good, there should be a rule that you have to post the recipe too.
Casey,
You don't know how much it means to me that you follow my blog...and that you see good things in me and you say them.
I think you are a model mom! That is always apparent with your bright happy bunch of girls and everytime I read your blog, and you must be the perfect Relief Society President. Mainly because you are so humble, not realizing for a moment how special you are.
It is a tough job anywhere rallying the single sisters, but particularly so when you are more spread out like I'm sure you are there.
I was RS President when I was young in Chino (35) and that was tough balancing that and raising my own kids. Then I was President again when I was in VA. There it was really tough because I had so many sisters who were single, non-member husbands, less active husbands, and then (since it was near the naval base) military wives. One of the things I did that I might suggest is that I had a single counselor...actually she was a 3rd counselor. Wonderful Bishop let me have a 3rd Counselor. She needed the calling, really needed it....and she was so aware of what was needed by the single sisters.
Thanks for recognizing that I am trying. It has been harder than you can ever imagine...not because we had a difficult marriage, but because we had such a good marriage. I feel more like a widow than a divorced woman because in most cases of divorce there has been anger and bitterness. I think those feelings might have made it easier, but they just weren't there. Sorry I'm going on, on your blog. But I think if you see each sister as her own story (which you are so good at) then you will bless their lives.
Love you Casey! Give Tim a hug for me, okay?
How fun and Casey you look great, that pic of you is adorable!
That breakfast casserole looks yummy. Share the recipe. You look fabulous by the way!
You DO look fabulous. I just had to say that, too!
Does your shirt say "stinky"?!
I wish your pictures were smaller.
