Easter Sunday

As is typical of our holidays, Easter Sunday was a long and fun filled day. The girls woke up to candy trails outside of their rooms, which led to their Easter baskets.















After that we all sat down to watch He Is Risen to focus on why we really celebrate Easter. At this point this was the Easter message we got from our 3 year old:
In the video, Jesus had just been resurrected and was talking to Mary Magdalene.
Addie: "Why does she love him?"
Me: " Well, do you love Jesus?"
Addie: "Yes"
Me: "Well she loves Jesus too."
Devin: "And she was probably His wife."
Addie (with a sharp look): "No, we share Jesus!"

Have to love the innocence of kids... I love having a child's perspective in our home.














Then we headed off to church, with the girls in their new dresses.















After church, we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Payne's for our first Easter egg hunt. The girls had a blast looking for all the eggs with their older cousins.



























































































Then we headed up north to Grandma and Grandpa Wayment's for another Easter egg hunt and dinner. We had such a great time hanging out with family and watching the kids play together.


We had such a wonderful Easter! We have so much to be grateful for!

Addie cracks me up in this post! I love her comment, "You'll get a lot of sugar, Quinc!" in the first video. And of course her comment about sharing Jesus. And I love her football Easter basket! Both girls look darling in their new dresses. Glad you guys had a happy holiday!
