Easter

I love Easter!!! Easter is a reminder of new beginnings, blessings, and beauty! God has blessed us in so many ways, and I am so thankful!!!!

A cute sidewalk chalk drawing of the Easter Bunny!

Saturday morning we dyed our eggs. It was somewhat organized, or at least it started that way! Then it turned into organized chaos! But still lots of fun!

John Parker's first masterpiece!

Ellla Joan, my Ella Bean!!!

After dying our eggs, we went to the Johnson's for their annual egg hunt.
We always have a great time and appreciate so much them hosting this each year for the children!

The children trying to get Oscar to pose for a picture on Easter morning!

Okay, now that's more like it!
Everyone look and say cheese!

Posing in the tree house, which is under construction for some minor updates!
After services at church, everyone came over for lunch and an egg hunt. Some of the children thought they were too old to hunt eggs! After reading Megan's post on her egg hunt, I have some ideas for next year and possibly some new traditions to get them involved again! Such a fun family and a great example of never being too old for whatever it may be!!

Carter's 2nd Easter! Last year he was only a week old!
He just had his first birthday! He is so adorable!

Love this picture!

Wished I had all the children and myself in it!
Avery, Jared, and Maddi were still on the hunt for more eggs!

So precious!
It was a beautiful day celebrating and spending time with our family!
