Easter 2015

He is Risen and we are forever grateful! Laylie and Rael woke up early Easter morning, snuggling Jason and I in our big bed. I handed them their first plastic egg which started their annual Easter scavenger hunt to find their Easter baskets. The girls ran around the whole house from clue to clue and at the end of the scavenger hunt screams of joy and happiness came from their little bodies when they saw that they had reached the prize.

 Later, we sat together and read from the Bible about Jesus' resurrection and opened up each resurrection egg that the girls knew by heart. We sat there thanking Him for giving us this day to remember His great and mighty love for us. 

We had a full day in store with tons of Easter fun including a birthday celebration for cousin Dugan and an engagement party for Tim and Lindsay. We gathered at our family's houses where we ate delicious food, spent time with family, and hid eggs for the kids to find. To end the day in a wonderful way - we surprised Tim and Lindsay with an engagement party! Our whole family is thrilled to have Lindsay be officially a part of our crazy big family and we can't wait to watch their lives unfold together. It was a fully packed delightful Easter we must say. We are excited to be thinking about what next year will bring with even more fun because we will have a little boy to run around with on Easter 2016.

HAPPY EASTER!!!
