Happy Easter!

We first went to our Easter Service at church. It was beautiful and our church was full again! We then came home for the kids to find their Easter baskets and search for eggs inside. We then made a yummy breakfast but the kids were too excited to eat! They wanted to find the eggs outside. We had over 80 plastic eggs hidden. The best part was that they kept hiding them over and over. They couldn't care. The weather was beautiful and we could be outside all day long.

Ted and I made a ham dinner for us to enjoy that evening. It was a great and relaxing Easter!

Dying Easter Eggs!

The fun time of dying Easter eggs! We gave the kids their baths since it was beautiful and we were outside all day long!

Easter Egg Hunt at Church

We had a very busy Saturday! We took the kids to our church for a Easter egg hunt! They had a great time. The weather was perfect, sunny and in the 50's. Each child got a nice number of eggs but they didn't over do it! The hunt was put on by the Knight's of Columbus and they had it divided by different ages!

The kids waiting to begin!
