Easter Sunday

I don't think we could has asked for a more beautiful day for celebrating Easter Sunday, maybe just a little bit cooler, as it was in the 90's, but we had sun and beautiful blue skies and it was a beautiful day.

Our day started off with going to the 7 am church service. Following church there were donuts and muffins and fresh fruit being served, which was nice. We sat for a while and fellow-shipped with friends and then it was time to get home to get just a few more things done for the Easter gathering at our house. Hannah was such a huge help this morning. She washed the mirrors in hers and Rachel bathroom. I think it might be time to teach her a few more household chores around the house to help Mom out. The girls each got a little bucket from us with a new jar of bubbles, some sunglasses, a pretty cookie and just a handful of candy. They'd already gotten enough candy from the egg hunt yesterday and I knew there'd be more candy on its way with our egg hunt with McKenzie and Haylee. After our very delicious dinner, Uncle Bart hid 92 eggs in our backyard. All four of the girls had so much fun, but Hannah, she was on a mission to collect a ton of eggs! After all the eggs had been found and accounted for, the girls sat and opened the eggs to discover what they'd found. Hannah found 31 eggs and loves to open the eggs to see what she found, which I think is pretty funny considering she really isn't a big candy eater...unlike her mother.We had a really nice Easter, spending time with friends and family, and remembering what this day is really about.
