This year Lily was just old enough to figure out an Easter egg hunt, so we did a small one in our living room. Mike held her while I "hid" eggs on the couches and bookshelf - she watched me because we didn't want to make it too hard. Then we let her loose! After she found the first egg and cracked it open for the candy, she didn't want to search any more. We only let her eat a few M&M's and the ears off our bunny Peeps. She loves the toys the Easter bunny brought her (plastic musical instruments and magnetic alphabet).
She also got a card from my parents (aka Gramma and Grampa Barrus) that we let her open. She's been carrying it around the house all weekend. We wish we were closer to family to celebrate Easter, but are so thankful for the blessings of the Atonement no matter where we are living.
I agree its tough being away from family during the holidays!
