Easter

This year Easter found our family in spite of Mom being REALLY sick! Influenza hit me hard Saturday and it was all I could to do just get out of bed, let alone fix a meal or change a diaper! Fortunately we have awesome family around and Saturday night the kids and Peter went to Grandma and Grandpa's to paint Easter Eggs, make Easter cookies, and play with cousins. Sunday morning they woke up excited to search for their Easter baskets and were pleased beyond measure to find all of the goodies The Easter Bunny had left them. That afternoon we ventured over to Grandma and Grandpa's (I still felt miserable) for a wonderful dinner, Easter egg and then Easter Basket hunt. The kids had a great time - unfortunately the only moments I captured were of Easter morning at home. Here are a few shots!

Charley got some new sparkly silver shoes and couldn't wait to get them on!

Makenna looking glamorous and so happy!

Porter, the jock, strongly displaying his spoils!

Charley was so delighted to find candy inside the plastic eggs, yet so dismayed to learn she couldn't eat ALL THE CANDY ALL AT ONE TIME!

Very pleased with Peeps and the famous chocolate bunny!

The silver shoes, her newest prized possession!

THANK YOU EASTER BUNNY
