Easter Bliss

We had a great Easter. The Easter bunny even remembered to visit. Stella is terrified of the Easter bunny. She had been in tears in days leading up to Easter in fear that the Easter bunny would not only come to our house and there was a chance that she might see him, but that he would go in her room. She requested we leave a note on her door saying, "Easter bunny, do not come in Stella's room." As far as she knows this is exactly what we did.

Bring on the eggs!

Isaac found an egg on his way downstairs from his room. Looks like the Easter bunny came.

The kids have raided their Easter baskets.

The egg hunt is on.

Isaac let his brothers and sister find the eggs while he ate the candy out of them one by one.

Time to get dressed and ready for church.

Papa read the kids a quick story before we left for church.

Yep. This photo looks just like all our family photos look. It's pretty much identical to the photo we took last Easter and the one before that. Will I ever get a family photo where we are all looking at the camera smiling?

On an average day at church we send Stella and Isaac to the nursery. Carson and Owen sit with us during the service. There was no nursery for the little ones on Easter Sunday. All four kids in church, during the entire service on Easter Sunday was more than we bargained for, but in all honesty the kids behaved themselves pretty well.

Waiting for the restaurant to open.

Back home for one more Easter basket and to change clothes.

Who's the best dressed child?

Isaac with his khaki socks, tennis shoes, basketball shorts and sweater vest?

Stella with her new cape, goggles and pretty bracelet?

Owen with his undies and new sunglasses?

Or

Carson with his baseball get-up, new green cape, punching balloon and swim goggles?

They all look pretty awesome don't they.
