Easter

Well, Easter for us this year was one of those.... "Let the Games Begin" kind of weekends. The festivities started early with all kinds of egg fun in Kindergarten on Thursday. (Josiah, Adalie and Kaia dying eggs with Mrs. Nolen)

Here comes Peter Cottontail hopping down the bunny trail, Easter's on its way!




Yes, many have said, "what on earth are you going to do when it is Adalie's turn for Kindergarten and she is really ready for 2nd grade?" Well, we will have to cross that bridge when we come to it and in the meantime be thankful that she is so graciously included!
Then off to Bakersfield for all the festivities. As tradition would have it, we joined Mimi and Papa CT after church at the club for a very yummy brunch. Thank You!

The whole gang was there... Campbell-Taylors, Stewarts, Hurts and Waltners......

And of course... the Easter Bunny. Josiah has figured it out.... she saw the guy inside the eye balls. But that didn't ruin the magic yet because .... well .... um... oh, I know!! You are right Josiah, that WAS a person in an Easter Bunny costume because the REAL Easter Bunny
was too busy hiding eggs! Yeah that's it!!

All the fam waiting for the Egg Race Hunt to begin.

Papa coaching the girls with some Egg Collection Strategy.



In pure Josiah fashion, she collected as many eggs as she could hold and then shared them with her sweet Little Sister who had only managed to collect a few. Watch out though next year, Adalie may be something to be reckoned with!



Our Family of Four.



Love these dresses!!

We finished off the day hunting for eggs again and again at Uncle Jon and Aunt Jen's house.



It was a serious hunt at the end of the day when we couldn't find 3 of the hard boiled eggs (oops, sorry for the stinky yard Uncle Jon!)

Sweet Easter Girls.

We are blessed in more ways than we can even imagine!!

My prayer is that we slow down, open our eyes and allow ourselves to see Him in everything; His sacrifice, His grace and mercy, His teaching and leading, His provision, and His love!
