Easter kind of snuck up on me this year for some reason. I didn't go out and buy the kiddos all new outfits (Elaina, of course, had to have something a little new....she wore a "new to her" little cutie from a pal). Cade has been anti-jean or khaki since he started 5th grade so he didn't even have a pair of dress pants to wear. One of these days he'll realize that girls don't go for the guy that's always in wind pants. Anyhoo, he still looked handsome on Easter morning!
Grant looked dapper as usual. He still lets me dress him without complaint.
You can tell just by looking at this picture that this curly headed kid wakes up and eats self confidence for breakfast. He carries enough for all three boys combined and makes for lots of laughs for Bobby and me.
And sister, cute as a button but she is sassy.....oooooo is she sassy!
My handsome hubby and me on Easter morn. Note to self: buy yourself a springy dress for Easter. Oh well.
I really would like this picture if A) Rhett's glasses weren't below his eyeballs and B) if Elaina looked like she even half way enjoyed being there. It was spritzing rain and I was out of time. Whaddayado?
I had to include this shot of Elaina. This is her new "camera smile". I have to make it stop. I need her natural smile. I know all kids go through this phase though. I hope it's short lived!
The cousins came over to the house for lunch and the annual egg hunt. Weather forced us inside this year and that was a bummer.
I love these next two shots of Lanie with her Easter basket.
She got to head downstairs first to start the hunt. Once she realized the first egg she found had a starburst in it she was finished. I think she finally ended up collecting only about 8 eggs but she was as happy as a lark!
Grant found the prize egg with $10 inside. I think after all of his money eggs were counted he ended up with over $30!! Not bad!
I am so thankful that our family serves a risen Savior! Going to church and celebrating this day is always humbling. Salvation is a gift I am eternally (literally) grateful for! Happy Easter!
