Easter morning brought baskets from the bunny for all 3 kids and that silly Easter Bunny left a trail of eggs from the kids' bedroom all the way to the living room! I was so happy that I was already up with Baby J, nursing him on the couch. I was able to see the look on the kids' faces as they walked out from their room. It was a look of amazement and wonder. So awesome to see!!! We realized a bit later that the Easter Bunny must have spent quite awhile outside because there were dozens of eggs in the front and back yards too!! L and S enjoyed finding all the eggs. There were some hanging from the trees, stuck to the windows and laying under the play set - they were EVERYWHERE :- ) Baby J didn't really get the whole Easter egg idea but did enjoy playing with his plastic eggs from his basket. We didn't make it to church, unfortunately, but did get in quality family time. I made a delicious ham dinner complete with mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, cool-whip salad (thanks Lisa!) and Cherry Delight for dessert. In the evening, we set up the tripod to get some family pics. They turned out okay and then we monkeyed around, letting the kids play with the camera and take pics. We got one that I LOVE. Why do I love it so much - we are all laughing and having a good time together... my favorite kind of picture!!
We had a great holiday together. I was pleased with the whole weekend - nothing I would change and that says a lot!!
This one is my fav. L set up the self-timer feature and her and I dove into the picture at the last minute. Everyone is looking and so happy - a great reminder of how the whole day went!
