Easter weekend

Easter weekend was filled with a lot of fun!
General Conference:
Olivia watched part of General Conference with us. She was very excited when it came time to sustain the general authorities, she kept wanting to raise her hand and sustain them even after it was finished.

I had her try to find the pictures of whoever was speaking. After President Monson finished speaking she said "more prophet, more prophet."

Church Easter egg hunt:
On Friday there was an Easter egg hunt for the Primary and Nursery children, Olivia was very excited. We had explained to her how an Easter egg hunt worked and she was ready with her basket and excited to find eggs. She did a really good job and ended up with a basket full of eggs.

As she was collecting her eggs one of them fell open and she realized there was candy inside. Trying to get to the candy became her focus the rest of the afternoon.


Long Island City Easter Egg Hunt:
The next day we went to an Easter egg hunt in our neighborhood.

Olivia remembered that the eggs had candy, so as soon as she grabbed one egg she sat down to enjoy her candy.

After the egg hunt Olivia had a lot of fun dancing.

Olivia was excited to see the Easter Bunny and wanted to give him a hug, she kept saying "please go to rabbit, please go to rabbit."

She also won a bunny hop race. She actually just competed against herself, this activity was set up for the older children, but Olivia wanted to give it a shot. All in all it was a really fun day!
