Easter

John 10:17-18 ESV
For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again.







We had our Annual Richard's Easter Hunt a little early this year since Aunt Emily was in town.























It was a beautiful weekend, the weather was perfect, and Lil' Miss was So excited!!

Her very first Easter!!

Big brother had to show her the ropes. He found 7 eggs filled with candy and 7 eggs filled with money...not too shabby!



Mimi and Pappi spoiled the kids with their very own Easter baskets filled with treats and toys and clothes.

We had a very authentic Easter lunch.....pizza! They are in the middle of remodeling their kitchen so of course pizza was just fine with everyone!


It was such a treat having Aunt Emily there to celebrate with us and we are looking forward to July when we will have her here permanently.

Our next Easter celebration was at Nana and Pawpaw's house on Easter Sunday.

We had an amazing lakeside church service and then headed back to their house for a delicious traditional Easter lunch with all the fixin's and another Easter egg hunt.


We had a fabulous time with good friends, family, and another beautiful day outdoors.





The kids were spoiled, yet again, with their very own Easter baskets
from Nana and Pawpaw filled with super cute pj's and goodies!

We spent the majority of the day just sitting outside, swinging on the swing, while the older kids played in Nana's fountain.

So, between two Easter's plus soccer practice plus a MOPS Easter egg hunt at the park, I guess I could say that our April was pretty busy!!



We are looking forward to summer and getting our feet wet in the splash parks and pools and to lazy days when there isn't a care in the world........except for what flavor ice cream to choose.
