It is April 12, 2009 and it is Easter! I love Easter, it just always feels like a new beginning. I even love the hymns more during Easter than I do at Christmas time.
The kids got to get into their Easter baskets around 8:00 a.m. That's the soonest we could get Michael out of bed. They loved their baskets and hunting for eggs.
After church we went to Michael's parents' house. We took some pictures in front of their fire place because I just think it's beautiful and a better back drop than anything we have in our house. Michaela kept her dress on until Jenessa got there because she wanted her cousin to see her dress. She's very proud of it.
We ate lunch and sat around and visited for a few hours. It was a nice time. I enjoyed it a lot and the kids had fun together. Papa hid eggs outside for them once and then they all took turns hiding eggs in the house for each other. It was so cool watching all four of them together. They even got Jeremy Jr involved some.
At 3:00 we went to my mom's house. We just sat around snacking, drinking mimosas and talking most of the afternoon. I really enjoyed it there, too. My mom's friend was there and so were Brandon and Karen. We stayed until about 8:00 pm. I think it was one of the best Easters we've had in a long time.
