Easter Sunday

We had a really nice, relaxing Easter Sunday- just our family of 4 celebrating the resurrection of our Lord and savior! We went to early service at church where Alli got to sit in big church with us for the first time. Even though she had a little bit of a hard time sitting still and remembering to whisper when she felt it necessary to say something, she absolutely loved it and thinks she's extra special that she got to go to big people church. After all, "4 year olds get to do that, not 2 year olds."The egg hunt was so fun this year now that both kids knew exactly what was going on!

We decided to bust out the tripod to try to get a family pic since it's so rare that we all look this nice at the same time and were thrilled with the results... Our best family photo to date!

Yay!! Chocolate Easter Bunnies!

Mmmmmm! Yummy bunny heads.

This year the Easter Bunny delivered store bought cellophane wrapped Easter baskets - GASP! I know! I never thought he would be so lazy or cheeseball either. But, Dwaine and I both agreed that we thought they were super cool as kids and always secretly wanted one. And, as expected, the kids loved them!

As a matter of fact, there were a ton of neat boy baskets, but I was having a really hard time finding a girl one that didn't have something that we have a ton of already. So, I had Alli pick out her favorite one at the store and told her I would tell the Easter bunny which one she liked. Unfortunately, by the time the Easter bunny went to the store, that basket was no longer there, so he improvised. So when Alli saw her basket on Easter morning she immediately said (in a cheerful tone) "Hey, that's not the one I wanted, but that's okay!" Phew!
