Easter in St. George

We went to St. George over the Easter weekend to spend the holiday with Andy's parents...I was severely under the weather the entire weekend, so the bulk of the Easter festivities fell to Andy and his parents--the kids were in great hands and had a fantastic time...

Andy's parents live on a great cul-de-sac over-looking the city, with the perfect neighborhood in which to ride bikes, so we hauled up 2 bikes, 2 plasma cars, 1 scooter, and Charlie's lawn mower...can't believe we fit that all in the back of the van!

We had an Easter egg hunt on Saturday morning...

And after the egg hunt...came the money.  The Hyers have a fun tradition of having a sand pile money dig, and we're talking serious money for kids...usually it's a big dig up at their house with all the cousins, but Chuck had a pile of sand brought in just for our kids this weekend, and buried lots of money...Because I was sick, the job fell to Andy to take them to Walmart after the dig for a toy drive...and lucky for them because Dad let them buy things that would NEVER allow--a 4 foot stuffed pink bunny--really Andy???

I managed to get the kids dressed for Church on Easter morning, but the joy didn't last long, as Charlie melted down and I left church with him during the prelude music...
