Happy Easter

We had a wonderful Easter weekend with family!

On Good Friday, we had Great Pop and Uncle Z over for dinner.

Eli was adorable insisting that we say our prayers :-)

Saturday, we visited with the Easter Bunny and enjoyed an egg hunt at our church. 

Alli LOVED the Easter Bunny and gave him lots of hugs and smooches.

Eli LOVED that the Easter Bunny gave him candy so took every opportunity to visit with him ;-)

Eli didn't quite grasp the whole hunting for eggs ~ he just wanted to open the ones he found and eat the candy right away.  This meant he "found" a total of 3 eggs!  Fortunately, others gave him some.

Alli on the other hand was a pro and even found one of the six coveted "golden eggs" meaning she got a special basket of goodies ~ needless to say, she was thrilled!

Thankfully, the weather was beautiful allowing for some great play time with buddies after the hunt.

Today, Alli and Eli couldn't wait to see if the Easter Bunny brought them any goodies . . .

The buckets of goodies were a hit!

Alli loved her princess puzzles and princess bike horn and Eli was so excited to get the Toy Story trilogy and Cars bike horn.  Luke too enjoyed his Sophie giraffe (and first Easter)!

Then it was time to head outside for our egg hunt. 

Eli finally got the idea and the two bigs had a blast!

We attempted some family photos but it's tough to get everyone to pay attention ;-)

After the egg hunt, we were off to church, where we enjoyed breakfast and a fabulous sermon.

This afternoon, we played outside and worked in the yard before heading over to Ducky Gramma and Papa's house for a yummy ham dinner.  Tony, Jenee and Kyle were missed but we loved seeing the rest of the family.  I didn't bring my camera so I will have to share pictures once my mom sends them.  We got some very cute shots of the "baby cousins" (aka Bella and Luke).

Definitely a fabulous weekend to remember!
