Happy Easter!

We had quite a busy Easter this year, but it was so much fun watching the holiday come alive through Audrey's eyes. On Easter morning, Audrey woke us up and had no idea why there was a basket full of treats waiting for her in the living room. I don't think we prepared her enough for the Easter bunny, probably on purpose. We really wanted her to know the true meaning of Easter and why we celebrate it. We kept it simple, Jesus has risen!! Anyways, after going through the treats in her Easter basket, she searched the room for plastic Easter eggs that were filled with one of her favorite treats, "ohhs". It's a great filler for the morning Easter egg hunts, we moved on to candy later on in the day. After finding all of her eggs and eating a quick breakfast on her bunny plate, it was time to get ready for church. I love dressing up our little girl in her Easter dress each year, with her bow and sandals to match. She just looks so stinkin' cute!! We made our way to the 9:00am service, where Audrey learned about Jesus and how he died on the cross then rose again. She was happy to show us her picture of Jesus, colored purple. We went to Nani and Papa's house for some family time, delicious food, and, of course, some egg hunting. Then after a quick nap, we drove to Grandma and Grandpa Love's home for more of the same. Very busy, but very fun!!
