Easter 2010

I was a little disappointed that we were not able to attend church on Easter Sunday this year due to General Conference. However, I do enjoy listening to conference and I am always in need of the words and lessons that come from it. I was just looking forward to getting Haylee all dressed up in her new Easter dress. So we dressed up the week before. We got all ready and at about 10:45 am (our church begins at 11:00 am) Rich decides to tell me that it is Stake Conference, so we needed to go to the stake center instead of our ward. I told him that Stake Conference always starts at 10:00 am and also reminded him that our stake center is located pretty far from us (our boundaries are weird). So much for that! We decided to skip it since we would be over an hour late. I was so determined to go somewhere in our pretty outfits so we met up with my parents and grandparents for a yummy breakfast instead. Here are some pics of Haylee in her Easter dress. Haylee is such a happy girl!
Well, maybe not always happy! She was getting irritated with me making her stand there so I could get a complete view of her.
Fast forward .... Easter Sunday up at my parent's cabin in Bear Lake. Here are Haylee's gifts from the Easter Bunny. Where is her Easter basket you ask? Well, it got left at home. Ooops! I checked at Wal-Mart in Evanston, WY on our way up to Bear Lake and they were completely out! I was so disappointed! She got some stacking blocks, two books, two movies, a fuzzy bunny friend, and some Fisher Price Little People.
"Is this for me? Are you sure? Can I open it?"
We tried to do an Easter egg hunt for Haylee, but it did not work out so great. She found the first egg and was satisfied. No need to find more. She was not even interested in what was inside. She just wanted to shake them and listen to the noise she was creating. I am trying to figure out Haylee's fascination with her Grandpa Craig. Maybe it is because he puts her in cardboard boxes and pushes her all around? It is a possibility for sure.
Haylee LOVES Grandpa! She has to be near him at all times and if he walks away without her at his side, she has a meltdown! They have so much fun together! Just playin'! Do you notice what she is holding in her right hand? Yes, it is a binkie that belongs to a doll that belongs at the cabin. She held on to it the entire time we were there. She ate with it, bathed with it, and slept with it. I have no clue what is so great about a binkie you can not suck? All I know is that the binkie had to come home with us.
