Easter Blessings



What a wonderful Easter we had. Our morning started off bright and early at the Sunrise service (and by sunrise, we mean it was dark when we got to church and the sun rose during the service.) It was so wonderful to hearing the the words from that first Easter morning as the sun is rising around us. When we got back, the kids . . . Chad, Maya, and Teagen . . . all took naps while the Easter bunny made his visit. The kids opened their baskets and then we were off to Papa & Gigi's house for a very fun day of eating, chatting and of course the annual, and very competitive, Easter egg hunt! We still have to remind the older kids . . . Sheena (age 24) and Roxane (age 15) . . . to only look for the hard ones! The kids played outside with the neighborhood kids and we even got to take a dunk in the pool.
The reason why the only picture of the girls in their Easter dresses is the professional one is because my batteries dies before they got into their dresses. We had a good friend/neighbor come to the house to take generation pictures which included the great-grandparents, grandparents, girls, and great-grand children. (Our friend/photographer is so talented. Check out her website at JenniferCochranPhotography.photoreflect.com) We will show those pictures off when we get them. So needless to say the dresses had to stay in prime condition for the pictures.


Here are some pictures from our day.

It's a baby choo choo train. Watch out, Teagen, Cooper might think you are a teething toy!
