Easter Weekend 2011


(Click picture to view larger)

Saturday Highlights:
  • Easter Egg hunts with the kiddos (two community ones and one at home with the cousins).
  • Making "Bird's Nests" cupcakes with my daughter.
  • A lovely and yummy dinner at our house.
  • Stephen and Patti were able to join us (Stephen got his leg brace off the day before and just has bandages on his leg and foot now).
  • Games, visiting and lots of playing with new Easter toys from Grandma and Aunt Holly.
  • Beautiful, warm sunshine!!
Sunday Highlights:
  • Celebrating Christ's resurrection at church!
  • An attempt at getting a decent Easter picture of the kids.
  • A calm, relaxing afternoon (naps for everyone!).
  • Decorating Easter eggs with the kiddos in the evening.

The best attempt: Abby wanted to wear her Easter hat for the picture, but it wouldn't stay down because she was leaning against the couch; Ben wouldn't give up his Veggie Tales book and his face is bright red from the sun the day before (even with sunscreen, he burned - perhaps because his skin is extra sensitive from the rash?); and Jake is just plain slouched over (but how can you blame a 7-week-old for that? :).
