Our Easter

Back in April...

This year we dyed and glittered our eggs. So fun. They didn't last until Easter morning though. They didn't even last until the end of that day. The kids played egg hunt with them all day and they were almost all cracked by evening. I think I found one intact about a week later.

Easter morning egg hunt. The kids were really into it this year.

Posing by our neighbor's bluebonnets. I was so excited about the wildflowers this year.

At church. We weren't able to get a very successful family pic this year. Oh well.

I did however get some pretty cute pics of Alli and Jack. She sure does miss him since he went off to kindergarten. We just don't get to see him often enough anymore.

And then we headed out to Stockdale to spend the day with my Nana and she took us to the city cemetery to see the fields of wildflowers. They were breath-taking. The indian paintbrushes were so thick and beautiful!

Alli loves to pose, but I couldn't get TJ to look up at all. He kept covering his eyes- he's not a fan of the sun shining in his eyes at all.


At the cemetery, Alli especially had lots of questions and wanted to read all the different head stones. I was very impressed with how mature she was about it all and how careful she was to follow the rules I gave her about how to respect the grave sites when walking around. A really great learning experience and deep conversation starter that I would not have thought to expose them to, so I was glad for the unexpected opportunity.
