Happy Easter

Easter morning we started out with a yummy breakfast and then we colored eggs with Jacob and Carlye. It was so much fun- just like kids again! Russell and I had talked about doing baskets for each other but because I had had my gall bladder out just days before we hadn't had time to put anything together. So Russell got a thing of beef jerky and I got some Reese's Peanut Butter eggs (such a crappy selection at Walmart the night before!)

That afternoon we headed out to my aunt and uncles for dinner and of course- an Easter egg hunt! Even though we are older we still insist on a hunt :)

*We have to get a shot of the family on the steps before we can start hunting for eggs*


*Jill, Carlye, Linsey, Missy*

My parents are kind enough to even hide an egg for each of us with a little money it it! Money and candy- can't go wrong with that! It was probably more fun though seeing the little ones go after the eggs. Carter and Olivia were in heaven and we kept re-hiding our own eggs so they could find them.

Even if you just set your eggs down for a second- Olivia was all over it picking them up and adding them to her loot. She was so funny!

Carter was equally excited about finding the eggs and also about getting them open to see what was inside! He liked the chocolate eggs the best. A kid after my own heart :)


We had a great Easter and enjoyed spending it with the family. We are grateful for the opportunity to celebrate Easter and the Resurrection of our Saviour.
