Happy Easter!

We had a wonderful and peaceful Easter this year, and we could not have asked for a better day to celebrate the rising of Jesus Christ!

The kids came into the kitchen for breakfast and found their Easter baskets on the kitchen table. The Easter Bunny brought them each a bunny cup and some chocolate. James got some new dinosaurs, and Audrey got some Legos that you can build cupcakes and cakes with.



After breakfast, we headed to church for a wonderful service and sermon on Jesus' resurrection from the Gospel of Mark.

After church, we headed home, and the kids hunted for eggs in the backyard. James was so excited to find as many eggs as he could, while Audrey was pretty content just holding onto the first one she found. She was way more interested in eating what was inside (gummy lifesavers) and didn't quite grasp that there were more eggs to find.




The egg hunt was followed by a 4 hour nap (yes, FOUR hours!) by both children. During their nap, there was a huge rain storm, so mama and dada listened to the rain for a bit, and then napped themselves. Once everyone was awake, we had a delicious dinner of lamb chops, green beans, and roasted potatoes followed by a very yummy strawberry pie.

Happy Easter!
