Happy Easter!

I hope everyone had an amazing Easter holiday! Being a mom really adds to each and every holiday and event that happens. I get to see everything through my children's eyes and I LOVE that! Teaching Cailen about the true meaning of Easter has been fun. We've read stories, we've talked about it, etc. We have actually talked about the resurrection of Christ often in the past few months, so I think he has the basics down. Well..I think! But I love the awe and interest that you can see in a child's eyes. And then of course, there was the candy of Easter! All in all, Easter this year was loads of fun

We decided to get some pictures taken at Kiddie Kandid - they have an awesome photo membership, so I get a free 8x10 every time I go in! Even if I go in like every week! So I go often :) They turned out DANG cute

 We decided to have invite the Easter Bunny for a visit Saturday morning, which worked out SO great. Cailen had to have a few hints to find his basket, but he did eventually! Mark and I hid ones for each other which was fun :)


Looking for eggs!

Confetti eggs! A definite hit with Cailen.


Jex's thoughts on the whole morning:

Cailen then had to re-hide eggs for everyone else to find, which was very funny (I think he put 3 in the same spot)
More dying eggs!!

Easter Sunday - my boys with their matching ties! Sooo cute! (Thanks Mark for agreeing to be matchy)

I decided to jump in on a pic, since I'm always the one taking them! We NEED to get a family picture this summer!!
That was our Easter!
