Easter 2010 - He is Risen!

We had a beautiful day to celebrate Easter this year! We started our day pretty early with the alarms in the house beeping at 6:30 am. Thankfully, the kids shut theirs off and crawled back into bed which gave B and I a chance to get up, grab the camera to capture the hunt for eggs and baskets and storm their rooms with "HAPPY EASTER!". Let me tell you...trying to catch three kids on camera finding their Easter baskets is not an easy task! Somehow B seemed to lead the other two astray long enough for me to record K and then C and finally J, who B had looking in the oven and dishwasher for his basket! LOL! It was tons of fun...especially for K who sat eating all her candy while B and I were recording C and J finding their baskets!

After getting dressed up in our "Sunday Best" we headed to church for the Youth Group Easter Pancake Breakfast. The kids scarfed down pancakes, bacon, fruit salad and juice while B and I tried to keep up with them and keep their outfits nice for pictures later after church. Everyone finished just in time to head in for our very nice church service. The kids behaved very well during church, even K who normally plays in the nursery during our Sunday service. After church we snapped a few pictures and then headed outside for their Easter egg hunt where the kids really cleaned up with a basket AND bag full of eggs for each of them. K was really funny only picking up pink eggs during her hunt. One member of our church pointed out a few eggs and she replied "No thank you, they aren't pink." HA! She's not a girly girl or anything!

We rounded out the day by playing outside, having a nice meal and playing wii fit as a family. A very nice day all in all. Check out all our festivities in the photo album listed as "Easter 2010" in the left hand column. Happy Easter!
