Easter 2009

Our family had a great Easter this year. 

The weekend before Easter, our kids participated in our church’s Easter egg hunt. Besides hunting for eggs, the kids also got treat bags before they left, which resulted in a…sugar high.

In our house, we put more toys and less candy in their Easter baskets.  

When the boys woke up on Easter,  they ran downstairs to find their baskets on the kitchen table.  They waited for my husband and I to get up and then dug into them to find all their goodies.  They sure were excited by the simple things we got for them.  Emma slept in, so she got help from her brothers to discover hers.

We went to my in-laws for a great Easter dinner.  I made a carrot cake for dessert, that was very yummy.  

The picture of the all three kids is the best we could.  Poor Emma had been running a fever since Saturday afternoon and was not feeling well all day, but she was a trooper.
