The boys woke up just before 7:00 am this morning, so they had some waiting to do before Kenton & I were ready to begin the Easter celebrations. :]
We started the morning off with Keith Green's "Easter Song" (such a great song!) & reading through the Easter story using Resurrection Eggs. This is a new tradition for our little family (just our third year) & I really like how engaged the boys stay when reading through the story & learning the symbolism of the items in the eggs. Such a great way to start our morning, to remember the real significance of Easter, & to be thankful for Christ's death & resurrection!
The kids each got a few things in their Easter baskets: some books, swim stuff for our upcoming trip to Great Wolf Lodge, some gum & treats. :)
I made some bunny teethers for Elsa, inspired by some pins on Pinterest!
My peaceful view (at the moment).
I was excited to show Elsa her basket, when she woke up. :)
This expression totally cracks me up!
That's better.
Still a bit confused, but she seemed to enjoy her book. :)

After a lovely service at our church, we gathered at Kenton's parents' house for more Easter fun & a yummy dinner.

Silly girl.
On the hunt for eggs!
Some photos of me & my girl.
I'm usually behind the camera, so it's nice to have some photos of me from time to time.
Silly faces!
Great smile!
Whoops!
So fun to shake (& taste!) the eggs. :)
