Easter 2014 Recap

April 20, 2014- My kids woke up excited and very quickly found their Easter baskets. I was impressed with my daughter since she found her basket much faster then I anticipated. It was in the washer and as soon as she walked in the room she opened the door and found it.

My kids did not have any candy in their basket this year. (We did an egg hunt at church last week so they have plenty from last weekend) This year my daughter go two Frozen books and an Easter Dress. My son got Batman socks and Lego's! They both loved them!

After having fun with my children it was time to get ready for church! This year our church had some snacks for fellowship and did baptisms during Easter service... it was truly a great time.

The weather was amazing- 81 degrees! We got adorable family pictures taken outside! We went to the park and played and also ate a yummy meal.

Happy Easter from our family to yours!
