Easter Sunday



Easter Sunday was such a nice day. We woke up, had Easter at our house, went to church then to lunch with friends. Lunch was low key and very, very yummy. The kids hunted eggs afterwards and we came home. Landry knows that Christmas is Jesus' birthday and wanted to know what Easter was. It was touching to see that she was interested in why we celebrate Easter.




Easter morning Landry woke up to discover what the Easter bunny left in her basket. She loved everything. We discovered the Easter bunny hid eggs in our back yard too.



Hunting eggs with a little help from Despereaux.



I think I see another egg...



Purple! Like Rapunzel.



After finding all of the eggs Landry was ready to squirt some silly string. Tuff was a good sport with what she wanted to do, as usual.



Ready to go to church. Yes, she wore her Twinkle Toes with her Easter dress. Speaking of Easter dress...there was another dress we had planned to wear for Easter. It was a 4 so I gave no thought as to whether or not it would fit. Well, guess what? It didn't fit and we found out that morning when trying to zip the zipper! Thank goodness we had a back up dress. Landry was a big girl and sat with us in big church.



After church we changed and headed to Jason and Beth's house for lunch. Matt, Sara, Caitlyn and Same were there too. The kids had their very own table.




They played pretty good together. We didn't have to tell them but one time to come down it was time to hunt eggs.




And they're off!




Even Ethan found some eggs.




Attempting to get a picture with all of them looking. Left to right: Sam, Connor and Landry. Caitlyn is standing up in the back. Sam will turn 2 in about 2 weeks, Connor just turned 6 and Caitlyn is will be 5.




Emptying the eggs=more candy.





Hanging out, just a swinging.




Good times, happy girl.




Girls just want to have fun.





Back home. Brad was trying to get the silly string to squirt. He got it to squirt alright.



Then he and Landry thought it would be funny to squirt me.





Some got on the camera...




and they kept squirting.








Landry wanted to use the bubble wand the Easter bunny brought. We had a recipe for bubbles from the Green Expo so we made our own bubble solution.




The bubbles were really cool and very fun. We're still playing with bubbles.






Overall Easter Sunday was a great day...and Jesus rose from the dead and went back to heaven.
