Happy Easter!

We had a blast Easter weekend doing all of our traditional Easter activities. This Easter was particularly special because it was Lana and Jackson's first. As a bonus we had gorgeous weather that weekend too!
Easter weekend for us is always filled with fun activites. One of our favorite activities is to dye easter eggs with my parents and my sister. The kids love making colorful eggs, but I think it's always Laurie and I that have the most fun. We also attend the Easter Egg Hunt at our church. The kids especially love the Magic Show performed by a christian magician (although the adults are getting a little tired of his tricks since he never seems to change his act very much from year to year. LOL!)

Easter morning at our house always starts with a hunt for easter baskets hidden by the Easter Bunny. It's getting harder and harder for the "Easter Bunny" to find creative places to hide their baskets, especially because he has to hide 4 baskets now!

Of course Easter to about more than the Easter Bunny, Easter Eggs and Easter Bunnies so we celebrate Christ and everything that he means to our lives at our morning church services.

After church we went back to Nonny and Pap's house because the Easter Bunny had hidden some eggs there and the kids had Easter Baskets from my parents and from my sister. Then we headed over to Nan's house for dinner with the Higgins family. Nathan and Tate especially loved being able to play with Fred, Wyatt and Patrick all afternoon. Lana and Jackson loved all of the attention that they got.

TJ missed most of the day because his mom was sick, but the kids and I reallyenjoyed every minute of the day.
