Easter Sunday

Easter baskets at home!

Easter lunch at church!

Easter is filled with candy and egg hunts for us.  However, we make sure that the kiddos know the real meaning of Easter.  We celebrate this holiday because Jesus, our Lord and Savior, died on the cross for us!  It still blows my mind, that God gave us His son.  We did not deserve that ultimate sacrifice!! Thank you, Jesus for saving us!  

Egg Hunt at "Daddy Mack's"

It's the Easter Bunny!

On the search for eggs!

Lookin' out for the horse poop!

For the past couple of years, Daddy Mack's Egg Hunt has been a must for our Easter festivities! This event is held on a beautiful horse farm and everyone brings a food dish to share!  It is such a fun event!  The kids love petting the horses and searching for the eggs!  There's also that blow up slide, and Grace got a little banged up this year.  She landed face first into another kid.  Yep, later that week, it looked like we punched her in the face!!  She's all healed up now!!  

Egg Hunting Time

She's off and running, what a competitor!

Found one!

It's the season of the Easter egg hunts!  The first of many was at Grace's preschool!  There was a story time, Bible lesson, egg hunt, and a mini photo shoot!  What a way to bring in the spring season!  Grace had no problem snagging her 12 eggs in like 3.2 minutes!  She even had to put one back!  What a beautiful day to celebrate the weekend of Easter!

After lunch with Daddy, we headed over to Grandma and Paw Paw's house for a little party!  Later that evening, it was Chuck E. Cheese with the extended family!  We had to push back Alex's birthday party til the end of the month.  He just got his cast off Monday and wanted his leg to heal before the big Bounce House party!  Hope you had fun, Bubby!

Happy Birthday Alex!

Lunch at Long's Drugstore!

Birthdays are a big deal in my family!  I love them!  It's a chance to celebrate each member of the family and make them feel oh so special!  Tuesday, April 7th was Alex's 3rd birthday.  However, he won't admit that he is 3.  Alex has such a personality.  He is so funny, loves to tell jokes, but at the same time is a lover boy!  He loves to snuggle and give kisses and is so laid back!  He loves his big sister and is excited about being a big brother in the fall!!!  Alex, we LOVE you!!!
