Weekend Pictures

Easter morning after church. Spring has FINALLY come to Minnesota!!
Brotherly love....
On Saturday, we colored Easter eggs. My kids all hate hard-boiled eggs so we didn't do many this year. It's more of a tradition, but not something they want to eat afterwards!
On Saturday morning we had an Easter egg hunt in our yard with my sister and her 5 kids. They all had such a great time but the Easter bunny hid some so well that we are still missing 14 candy-filled eggs somewhere in the yard!!(that's what you get when you hide a few hundred eggs!!)
For the past few years, we have done an egg hunt with some neighbors. This year it was on Thursday.

My kids are certainly on a sugar high with all the egg hunts they had...we did one at church on Sunday morning as well! The Easter Bunny came to our house and left baskets filled with toys, clothes and games for all the children. We spent the day with my parents and had a wonderful dinner. Peter really seemed to enjoy all the excitement of Easter this year and got into the egg hunts. Last Easter he was only 11 months so he really didn't participate much!

We took the time to reflect about the real meaning of this Easter celebration with our children through out the weekend. I hope your holiday weekend was blessed with God's love!!
