Easter

We spent Easter at home this year, being blessed by our church's Easter service, spending the day with dear friends and having fun as a family.  So thankful for a Savior who gave His life for us!

My 3 little peanuts all ready for church


My sweet little family at brunch

Melts my heart - good buddies after filling their tummies with good food!

Paige drew this picture all by herself.  She asked me draw a big rock and to spell out the words "He's Alive" and she got to work.  I was blown away by her understanding of Easter....with the cross and Jesus emerging from the tomb.  She also wanted prince and princesses to be watching (hey, she's 4), so she told me they had crowns and tiaras on.

--------------------------------------------

We also spent an incredibly COLD Saturday at a wonderful Easter Egg hunt hosted by my friend, Melody.  I swear there had to be 60+ kids wandering through the woods behind her house hunting for eggs.  The kids had a blast with all of their buddies and loved coming home to open up their treasures:)

All set to hunt!

It's weird to be dressed for winter with Easter baskets in tow:)  

Paige's church buddies, Norah and Kate.

Love all your pictures! Pagie is such a sweetie hanging on tight to her friends while posing for the picture! I remember one Easter in GR when it snowed (egg hunt inside that year!)
