Easter

Saturday evening we colored eggs. The Nelsons came over and joined us for that activity.
Caitlin loved it.


The whole group
This picture is out of order but I'm ok with that. This is Easter evening. All wearing their new spring shirts.
After coloring eggs on Saturday night, we had baths and then Caitlin had her first hair cut. We just had to cut off the original clumps of hair that were much longer than all the newer thicker hair. She looked much less straggly afterwards.

Sunday morning we all loved eating our colored eggs for breakfast.
Caitlin had fun digging through her basket that morning.
Bradley showing off his windmill from his basket.
Mackayla checking out her basket
Jacob enjoying a piece of chocolate from his basket.

What a fun morning!
The Easter Baskets before the kids dug in.
Since our church wasn't until 1:30, we had the whole morning to enjoy, so we had our Easter Egg Hunt shortly after breakfast. Jared and Caitlin hid all the eggs.




Then it was finally time to get dressed in our Easter best and head to church. 
Here is Bradley looking so very handsome in his new shirt and tie.
Mackayla looked beautiful!
Our lovely little lady!
And finally, our good looking little man, Jacob.
I know I'm biased, but I certainly think that is best looking group of people I've ever seen. Even with the funny faces in some of the pictures. :)

Mackayla really wanted her and Caitlin to wear the Easter hats. They are so cute!
Happy Easter!
After dinner, we enjoyed a nice ham dinner by ourselves. We tried inviting lots of people, but they all had plans. We had a great time with just ourselves though. It was a wonderful weekend and we are always so grateful for the chance to reflect on the message of Easter!
