Happy Easter!

We sure did miss getting to celebrate Easter at the Leighton's house this year but our kids did enjoy a couple different fun Easter events. This year Easter fell on my birthday (for the first time in my life) so that made it an extra special day.

Egg hunt in the morning, the Easter Bunny wasn't fooled that we lived in a new house

 We had so many Easter eggs and so much Easter candy from a few different community hunts we enjoyed that the night before Easter we went and served as the Easter Bunny for a number of friends on our street. The kids had such a wonderful time hiding eggs for our neighbors to find!

A week before Easter we went to the Croatian Hall with our friends for a fun Easter celebration there! The kids had a blast.

psst...Jaydon, turn around!

Yummy Easter Dinner!

Happy Easter

We had another lovely Easter. We had to wake the kids up a little early to get to church in time to volunteer for the first service so our Easter Egg hunt was done with some sleepy eyes. We then had a wonderful time at church and of course headed up to Alger to celebrate with family, share a lovely meal and continue the tradition of a kids hunt and an adult hunt (man those eggs are getting hard to find). When we arrived home we were able to facetime with Granny and Papa and open Easter gifts from them. What a great day celebrating.

We had a wonderful Easter. It was a super busy weekend for me working as the preschool director for our church and Jeremy did a ton of Dad duty helping with the kids while I worked. Jeremy ran the egg hunt on Easter morning, then he brought them to church and helped me in a classroom and then we headed up to the Leighton's for our annual Easter celebration.

Kate, Jaydon and Lucy enjoyed finding their goodies from the Easter Bunny

We finally had a glorious day! It was so nice to be out in the sun. As always the kids had a fun egg hunt for themselves.

Then, after the kids hunt, the "bigger kids" got a hunt

Lucy had one birthday present to open

Then we went over to Russ and Allie's to see the climbing wall, ducks and all kids of fun stuff

We got to skype with Granny and Papa to open our Easter goodies from them too.

Another fabulous day with family and friends.
