Thankth Eathter Bunny...

I have decided that I don’t like when Easter Sunday and LDS General Conference fall on the same day. The reason is this: On Conference Sunday Grandpa Stretch makes a full turkey dinner. I generally don’t eat anything that morning, saving plenty of room for the feast. But when conference is on Easter, we are inundated with candy. Robin’s Eggs, Cadbury Mini-Eggs, Chocolate Bunnies and Dove Dark Chocolates among many others appear faster than real bunny rabbits can multiply. I find myself loading up with sugar all morning, which impedes my ability to gorge on extra helpings of turkey, stuffing and sweet potatoes. Oh well, I guess sacrifices must be made. Anyway, I have attached a video of the Shirley kids searching for the eggs that the Easter Bunny hid. You might wonder why I make such a big deal about finding all of the eggs. The reason is that this year for the first time, real eggs were hidden, instead of plastic ones. If one was missed, we might be in for a stinky surprise in the next couple of weeks…




Kate had to work, so we made a trip in to show her what the Easter Bunny brought the kids. I have now recovered from my turkey-induced coma, and will soon be slipping back into a sugar-induced coma...
