Easter

For Easter this year, our niece, Allison, stayed with us. My parents had called a few days before and invited us over for dinner on Easter. It's is a two-hour drive but we couldn't think of a better way to spend Easter than with family.

The kids found their Easter baskets when they woke up. They ate chocolate and hard-boiled eggs (after some egg wars) for breakfast. They each received some new books in their Easter baskets, too.

Then we got ready for church and attended service at St. Michaels.

Miranda worked in the nursery. Afterwards, there was an egg hunt out on the lawn. We went back home to eat some lunch before heading over the mountains to Grandma and Grandpa's. The drive was beautiful. It was a warm, sunny spring day. A perfect Easter.

My sister, Tonya, and her family were there as well. Glorious cousin time! The dads and older cousins hid more eggs out in the lawn and the kids were thrilled to have another hunt.

We really enjoyed the day. It was a wonderful way to celebrate together :)
