Easter in Del Rio


We put together a package to send to Megan in Provo, since this is her first Easter away from home and she wouldn't be participating in our annual scavenger hunt. Included were some homemade goodies and some chocolate, and then we got a bit carried away with a Star Wars theme...


...Because we discovered a variety of Star Wars Easter cards on the internet, such as these:



She got some Kylo Ren cotton swabs in a reusable tin:

A reusable bag:


A puzzle and a game:

Besides, May 4th is coming up soon and she needs to be prepared to host her own party.

On the Del Rio home front, we made and decorated Easter sugar cookies! It took nearly all day Saturday.


I made some special ones just for our family.
We shared the others with the missionaries and some other church friends.


Saturday afternoon the children went on their annual scavenger hunt. This year Kevin gave scriptural clues, so they had to expend a bit more effort to figure out the locations. Here they are searching by our fig tree. Funnily enough they ended up with a Kylo Ren puzzle and a Star Wars Top Trumps game too. Additionally, Dallin got BB-8 Bubbles!


Sunday, Kevin had a break from his usual church leadership meetings and got to spend more time at home with us. He made challah to go along with a baked ham and mashed potatoes! It was a delicious dinner. We only took pictures of the bread, however.


We were grateful to have some quality family time and reflect on the Resurrection of our Savior. 


We read through our Resurrection Eggs scripture activity later in the evening.
