Annual Dahle Easter Egg Hunt and Conference
Conference weekend is always a fun and crazy weekend at Lynn's parents home. All of Lynn's sisters are here with their kids and all of the cousins play themselves to death all weekend long (however this year the Porter family couldn't make it, they had obligations at Disneyland instead...poor them). Oh well, the rest of us still had a great time and our kids were literally exhausted.
It is always great to be able to listen to the prophets of the church and their counsel and guidance for us. I truly am grateful for the modern day technology we have and the opportunity we have to listen to them from our homes. Luckily I was able to listen to some of it and then I recorded the rest in hopes to listen to it later.
After the morning session on Saturday, Grandma and Grandpa had a great Easter Egg Hunt for all of the kids. This is an annual tradition and Parker and Madi couldn't wait to be able to do it because they had been staring at the eggs at Grandma's house all week. So needless to say, they were ready. Lesson learned this year: our kids are getting too old, we definitely need to hide their eggs in harder places next year (especially Madi's). She was done within a couple of minutes. However, she didn't seem to mind and true to her form she immediately started opening eggs and eating candy.
After all the kids found their 12 eggs, Grandma and Grandpa brought out the big prize...which was a huge kite for each of the kids. They were thrilled.

How fun...your kids look like they had a great Easter egg hunt! What a fun tradition!
Hey Melissa- this is emily petersen maynard. I just realized you had a blog- I don't know where I have been. Your kids are so cute- I can't believe how much madi looks like you! We went to Island Park this past weekend and saw your parents. It is always good to see them!
Also- congrats on the baby! That is very exciting!
Good job updating your blog. I had stopped checking! :) - Hope you are doing well and if we ever get warm here in Cache Valley we will have to get together with our kiddos. Cute pics!
I agree Madi looks so much like you. I loved the little raincoat for easter egg hunting. It was a perfect colorful match for the occasion. Your kids are so cute! Very cool you have some musical talent in your family too :) We are not aware of any as of yet and since neither Jonathan are inclined it is hard to encourage that in our children. We should be better about exploring that.
