Easter Gathering

I hope you all had a blessed Easter. We had a very nice day with a wonderful service at church and some friends for dinner.

We celebrated with our kids on Saturday evening.  We started with an egg hunt. We've been getting lots of rain here and Saturday we got more.  It rained much of the day, so going into the yard to hunt wasn't going to work. We improvised and hid eggs in the garage.  :)


We made it easy to find some eggs for Connor and others were more hidden.





Ready for the hunt!

Having fun!








Cassie (she's wearing a Home Depot apron because Andrew took her there earlier in the day. They were letting the kids do a project and they got these aprons, so she had to wear it to our house and show us)

We had pizza and just enjoyed the evening.




The girls did some coloring and drawing.








Here's all my cuties! We had a nice evening together.

  3. Hey, we had pizza too! And here I thought we were the only ones who had pizza on Easter Sunday!! Alaina, oh my gosh!! I did not recognize her, and thought she was someone else much older. She has grown and changed so much. Both Alaina and Ruby are so beautiful. The garage was a great idea, and it looks just as much fun as outdoors would have been.

  8. Glad to see Connor got in the photo this time. its a great shot. what a fun day and the garage was a good idea.. when I got to the photo of the MEN waiting for the egg hunt I started to laugh. men are so predictable. I have a photo of 4 of our family men standing in a row in the street to watch the kids ride new bikes at Christmas. all of them had what I call the Bored Stance... like they are saying, I am here, I am thrilled with their hands in their pockets... thanks for the memories

  9. What a beautiful family and time together, Mari! Yes, sometimes we have to improvise when it comes to things like an Easter egg hunt, but sometimes those create the best memories.

  10. Way to pivot Grandma and Grandpa. We sure get used to plan B's with our weathery areas, don't we? Looks like they still had lots of fun and they are all so darn cute! Growing put so fast too. Sounds like you had another lovely Easter in the books too. :)

    Despite the soggy rain you all have a great time celebrating.
    Connor is sure getting big and looks like he had a lot of fun. I like the picture of he and Grandpa sharing the goodies.
