Easter!!

I have always loved Easter! It seems like it is always sunny, you get to spend it with family, and it isn't as stressful as Christmas with all of the presents and everything. This Easter was really nice! We did a few activities the week leading up to Easter and then were able to go over to my in-laws for Easter dinner and an Easter egg hunt (well the kids actually hunt for Easter boxes from See's-aren't they lucky?!). It was a great day!

We had Halle and Ryan put out their Easter baskets the night before Easter. Halle was so excited about the Easter Bunny coming and kept asking questions like, "How does the Easter bunny get into our house?" "Where does the Easter Bunny live?" "How can the Easter Bunny carry everything?" I can't remember what I told her, but it's a good thing she is only three and will pretty much believe anything I tell her. She was so excited in the morning to see what the Easter Bunny had brought her. I don't know if it was because she just woke up, but ALL of the pictures we took of her are with her eyes half closed. The poor girl could not keep her eyes open for a picture!
Halle is a typical 3 year old girl. She loves princesses and everything pink. She got a few princess card games, a pink water bottle, a Pinkalicious book, Tangled, and some underwear. (Haha, she needed some new ones). And of course some snacks and candy.

Poor Ryan's basket wasn't as loaded, but what do you get an 8 month old?? So he got some puffs, a new book, a car, and some baby food. The thing that he was most excited about was all of the Easter grass at the bottom anyway.


After church we came home and took some pictures. This was the best one I could get of Halle and Ryan. This is pretty good looking back on some of the shots I got.


Our sweet boy!! He was all smiles!



Halle was pretty much done taking pictures, so Jeff and I each took some with Ryan.




Happy Easter! We hope everyone had a wonderful day!

Happy Easter! It sounded and looked like a great day. I think I need to move back to CA because Easter here isn't always sunny and warm... I love Easter too though! I love Halle and Ryan Babes! Super cute photos!

Kath! I can't believe how big little Ryan is! He's huge! How could he have grown so much since I came to visit?! I LOVE his cheeks. Can't wait to kiss them in a couple weeks :)
