Easter 2011

Happy Easter!

Cubby's parents came in for the weekend and we have loved having Grandma and Grandpa here!

We had a wonderful day--the Easter Bunny came and we had a fun time watching the children find all of the eggs that he'd "hidden." The kids cleaned up (especially Christian--check out his full basket!)

Kari wasn't really into the whole finding the egg thing, but she did enjoy opening the eggs up and seeing the fun surprises inside! (We did get her dark chocolate that she could eat...although she hasn't wanted to try anything yet!) We also let her try a jellybean, and, just as we thought, she didn't like them. Oh well, better for her food allergies anyway.

After the egg triumph, we got all fancied up for church. Emily let me put hot rollers in her hair and she and Kari were both so tickled that they got to dress up in coordinating "princess" gowns. They looked just sooo beautiful! (And Christian was looking quite dapper as well!)


Here is out attempt at a family photo. Typical. Even on Easter.
Here are Grandma and Grandpa with the kiddos. Christian still insisted on making faces, Kari was tired (before church--poor girl!), Emily was lovely :-).

After naps, we headed over to my mom's for dinner. The sun actually came out for a bit (gasp!) and Auntie Erin had "hidden" a fun treat for the kiddos outside.

We hope everyone had a very "Hoppy" Easter! (Sorry, I couldn't resist!)
