Easter Day

We had a beautiful day yesterday! We started our Easter by doing something that we haven't done in awhile....going to church services. The kids were great and I love Danny, the minister (preacher as he calls himself). I've gone there (off and on) for almost 30 years and he baptized me when I was 12. It never loses that comforting feeling. It was a great way to start the day.

Ella and Mason were the first two to get up yesterday. It was pretty early so we let them find their baskets before Silas even woke up. I knew it'd be a long day and didn't want him to wake up before he was ready.

After church, we went home and started cooking for Easter dinner. I made berry cobbler, banana/peanut butter bread and broccoli casserole. We enjoyed a fun afternoon of cooking and I enjoyed some yummy cab rose with Justin. At 4 o'clock it was back to the church to have dinner with the whole family. We had the entire place to ourselves and it allowed the kids plenty of room to run...run...run...


The weather cooperated this year and so the kids got to have fun with an outside Easter egg hunt.
Ella, of course, wanted to stay in her Easter morning dress - she was too cute to argue with...

Will the real Easter Bunny please stand up?



We stuffed ourselves silly with all the food and desserts. We ended our great day with a MAJOR Silas melt-down once we got home. Can't blame the kid...the rest of us were close behind!
