Hoppy Easter

My Girls on their first Easter together

We had a great Easter Sunday up north! I received a great Easter present from Mylee as she slept almost 6 hours her first stretch, so I was feeling pretty refreshed and ready for the day. Good thing because the day started early with the kids up early and ready to find their easter baskets. After everyone found their baskets and went through them we had to get the clan fed, bathed, and ready for church. It was kinda crazy but we all made it to church on time. Easter service was wonderful. Papa and Uncle Joe were part of a reinactment of the resurrection with Papa as Simon and Uncle Joe as Jesus. It was so moving and touching...there was a group of us in tears. I wish I had pictures. Maddy is still talking about the soldier being mean to Jesus and hitting him with their wipes and then Jesus dying. It is something we all won't forget. We got some family and cousin pictures after the service of everyone dressed up although the kids were not on their best behavior so they aren't the best.

After church, we headed back to my parents house for a pasty lunch before my sister and her family had to leave. Then we watched golf the rest of the afternoon and just relaxed. My brothers and their families came back over to hang with us after easter lunch with the in-laws so it was great to spend more time with all of them. It was a memorable Easter Sunday.

This is sure a cute Easter bunny, hey?
