easter day

We've had some busy days lately!  Which just continues to make me think about my word and the utter failure of slowing down!  Our busy times this weekend came from the amazing blessing of celebrating our Savior's death on the cross Friday night, an intimate family wedding Saturday and then the Resurrection today.  

We got in late last night from Gainesville so the boys woke up late this morning.  That just meant that Zach had already left for church and didn't get to be a part of our Easter basket fun.  His family always hid their baskets so we tried it this year and the boys loved it!  They stood in the hall until I said go and then raced around the living room to find there goodies.  We don't really bother with an Easter Bunny so they know we bought everything as a surprise for them and were beyond excited.  Zach was filled in quite quickly and loudly I might add as soon as we got to church :)

Connor's Basket- gummy worms (ode to papa), yoda figure, light saber and The Little Rascal
s which seemed very fitting for him ;)
Micah's basket- gummy worms, Anakin figure, light saber and Angels in the Outfield.  He's been wanting to watch a baseball movie so badly since he started playing but most are still too old for him.  I was so excited when I remembered this movie!


on your mark, get set, GO!

The look I got when he saw his light saber!

He found it!
 Easter is a hard day for us to be with family since Zach is the worship leader at our church. Thankfully the friends we have here are just like family and we have had our Easter dinner with them the past few years.  Steph cooked her yummo chicken, Leslie brought delicious sides and I was blessed with the task of just handling bread since we were having a heck of a weekend already!  The kids played and played and hunted eggs too while we watched the kiddos, the Masters, talked and even got to eat in semi peace and quiet :)

waiting for the go ahead
