Happy Easter!

We had a pretty quiet Easter Sunday. We went to mass this morning with my parents and then all headed to Grammy and Paw Paw's house for Easter lunch and fun. (We would have prefered the Vigil, but they all started at 8 pm...exactly bed time! Maybe next year we'll brave it with the kids.)

First Daughter before church. Yes, that's a Cheerio in her mouth...Kansas Dad made a huge warm breakfast, of which she ate her share, but you'd never know it from how she asked for Cheerios five minutes later.


First Daughter enjoying her Easter cupcake. (Mostly she crumbled it to bits and smeared the frosting all over her hands.)


A better picture of First Daughter's Easter dress. It's one of the few new things we have for spring (thanks, Grammy!) which we found at Burlington Coat Factory at a very good price.


First Son refused to participate in the Easter egg hunt once he found his present (a new Veggie puzzle). He insisted on putting it together immediately. Like last year, we had to run around and pick up most of the eggs we'd put out.

First Daughter did enjoy the hunt, at least for a while. I have a little video of her you can see if you know us. Just email me and I'll send a link.


By the way, First Son had also been dressed in Easter finery, but had to change after a pre-lunch walk outside. These are the only clothes we had for him at Grammy's house, so his Easter is immortalized by a Michigan shirt and jeans with a patch. Next year I'll have to remember to take a picture before we leave the house for Easter mass!
