Easter Fun!!!

Here are some Easter pictures. I am trying to be a bit more on top of things:) Last week we went to our pastor's house for the annual Egg Hunt. Emma was very excited and looked in every hole possible to find some. My boss Kerry got her this cute Tweedy Bird basket and she was so excited about it. As she was looking for the eggs, she noticed other kids running and looking for some and she told me "mom, i don't want those other kids to take my eggs".

On Good Friday i stayed home in the morning and Emma and I had a great time coloring eggs and making Easter cards. Emma did a great job coloring the eggs with paint, especially since this was her first time doing it (at least at home). She also loved putting easter stickers on.

Yesterday, on actual Easter day we hid eggs all over our front and back yard and invited our neighbors Pedro and Alondra to join Emma for the hunt since Nora is too little. Emma loved that her buddies were there and she could enjoy all the treats with them afterward. Nora enjoyed the time as much playing with grandpa who came over for dinner. We remembered the story of Easter and why we celebrate. It is interesting how amazed the kids faces get when they realize that the stone is moved and Jesus has risen. Wish we all have that kid like amazement when we celebrate Jesus rising from the dead. Happy Easter to all! May you all find the joy and meaning that Easter brings!
