The Saturday before Easter we had Grandma Jean come up to help us color eggs but just a few minutes after getting here Kaden fell off a cardboard box he was playing on and landed on his arm. We thought for sure it was broken. He was inconsolable. So after about 15 minutes of screaming and crying we decided to take him to the ER. Luckily grandma was here to stay with Gavin so Paul and I could both go be with Kaden. He cried the whole drive there even if we were going straight. They took Xrays at the hospital and decided he had probably just dislocated his elbow joint and then it had popped back on it's own. A very painful thing to have to go through, we were so glad he didn't have a break and need a cast. Poor little guy. 
We were able to color eggs after we got back from the hospital and it turned out being a fun day anyway despite the earlier craziness. (Though Gavin fell smack on his face just an hour after we got home with Kaden and had a terrible goose egg and scratches. It was a really unfortunate, bad luck kind of day.)
The next day was Easter so before church we hid our eggs and baskets and let the boys find them.
Later we went to mom and dad's to watch conference and have a big egg hunt. Theirs is always fun because their eggs have money inside! The older kids (Allen, Randi, Paul, and I) all got to find one egg with some moolah inside, it was a little competitive :)
I'm so grateful for my Savior and his resurrection and atonement. How wonderful that we can all live with Him again and our families because of His sacrifice for us.
