Easter weekend

coloring eggs

The picture Ab drew on our new chalkboard on the kitchen wall (one of the ‘keep me busy or I will go nuts waiting for the phone to ring’ projects)
I love it. He remembers so many details and takes God very seriously.

Easter morning we woke the kids up by going in each room and playing “Up from the Grave He Arose!”  That was fun. The kids didn’t think it was fun.

Bekah has been wanting some Wisps for a while…and they showed up in her basket :)
 
Church and then off to Grandma’s for dinner and Easter Egg hunt.
Ab and I made some himbasha :) and he has now begun the ‘cool’ smile.  We laugh because Josh had the same exact smile at this age.

But…first Ab found an Easter egg from last year!! That’s right..and wanted to eat the candy. Yuck.

same smile…

The hunt begins. Game on.
 
Can you hear the victorious laugh?

Fighting over an egg that was not in the bush. Um…girls, it’s behind you!

 


Let’s take some pictures…
the ‘awkward in the tree’ pose

trying to figure how to stand and then it all goes downhill
 
 
Finally..a nice one.
   
Then…while us adults fellowshipped on the porch, they ended up playing Blackjack and ‘betting’ candy. I am so ashamed.

and..some fruit got added in.
 
Happy Easter. I’m so thankful for the life this day brings.
