Easter Fun

Today for Easter we went to church and then hosted an Easter Brunch. The kids were up very early to see what the Easter bunny had left in their baskets. They were happy with a little chocolate and bottles of bubbles. After church they tried out the bubbles and I got a few pictures of Gina in her pretty Easter dress with her hair down (she almost always insists on having it in a braid or pony tail now). Dylan was hoping to wear a t-shirt and shorts to church but VERY reluctantly changed into long pants and a new polo shirt.


We had a full house of grownups and kids for brunch. Nana was there early to help with the last minute cleanup. Becky and her friend Dave came as well as Noemi and her three kids. This year I also invited another mom friend, Cindy, who came with her two kids and parents who were visiting from NC.

Here are the kids, somewhat patiently waiting to start the egg hunt in our front yard. We gave the 4 year olds and 2 year old a head start though I think I should have given them more. Dylan was actually the first one done. I never got a shot of him looking for eggs. I think there may be one or two more eggs still hidden, but the kids got most of them.

Dave and I had a great time, Betsy! It was wonderful to see you and Vic and all the kids. Thanks so much for inviting us.

How fun! I wish I was there! We had a community egg hunt up here,but the rain made the field and eggs muddy. I am looking forward to some sun.
