I Love Easter!

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned on the blog before, but just in case I haven't....I LOVE EASTER! It is fast becoming my very favorite holiday! I love the opportunity to focus on the reason for the season without falling into the crazy trap like I seem to always do at Christmas time:(

This year, we were blessed with a relaxing Easter weekend filled with Saturday breakfast, flower planting, last minute egg hunting with the neighbors and just enjoying being together.

Of course, Sunday morning came early for our crew. The kiddos tend to get a wee bit excited about any holiday! On the bright side, we were able to enjoy the beautiful sunrise!

 

Little Miss showing off her ballet moves.  Now let's just hope she'll perform them for her recital in a few weeks!






My sweet Kat Lloyd looking as beautiful as ever!

 
 
And let's not forget, Mr. Snaggle Tooth;)
 

 

 
They've obviously mastered the silly face!
 

A family pic! Can you tell Matt and I still look half asleep?  Oh my!


And we couldn't not take a silly picture of everybody!


Pops and Tula joined us for lunch: ham, pork tenderloin with jezebel sauce, potato salad, potato casserole, squash casserole, brussel sprouts, and broccoli.  Along with carrot cake and No Bake Italian Cake (an easy and YUMMY new recipe I scored on Pinterest!).


A most appreciated nap followed by a relaxing walk around the neighborhood ended this joyful day!

We've got a few more exciting things on the agenda for the week like Walker and Kathryn's first orthodontist appointments (See, fun times are yet to be had;) and a day trip to the beach!

And let's not forget about Easter! It's my absolute favorite time of the year!
