Family Easter Time

Just like a lot of  other holidays there is a  lot hype built into what the true meaning of the celebration is.  With kids especially it is hard to relay this message to them because of all the distractions of eggs, candy, Easter bunny, presents, and just getting together and having fun with the families.  All of that stuff is fine, but it is nice to finally see Crew get the whole idea of it all, how big of a deal it is that Jesus died for us by being nailed to the cross, rose again, and saved us from our sins.  He can very well relate to being naughty, so he knows how lucky he really is! :)  To know that we have everlasting life is a gift that can never be topped!

We didn't really do anything for the boys for Easter this year, they are always plenty spoiled by the grandparents, but I did have fun getting them all matching outfits.  Just as the luck of it seems, Chris worked, so I did the best I could dragging the boys around to both families, it is exhausting!  But well worth it.  Chris is officially in turn around now, so I better get use to it!

Don't they almost seem angelic just for a second?

Kys face is priceless in this picture!

We went to Nana's and Papa's for lunch and an egg hunt, fun fun fun!

Kys was most concerned about the birds flying around, and even though my mom created a special area just for him, he saw an egg that looked like a soccer ball, and yelled ball, kicked it, ran after it and then threw it.  That about sums up his egg collecting!

Deuce loving helping her nephews

Comparing all of their loot!

Me and my Bo Bo's

Favorite chair in the house one on one with Nana

We went to Memi's for dinner, and had quite the wild evening, I guess all of that sugar was being put to some good use! 

The constant entertainer, but Kader loves it

Llama llama books with our Memi

So precious

A miracle shot!

Can't forget how much fun we had dying eggs the day before, oh goodness, sometimes I set myself up for disaster!  Crew was great, Brody I guess his last month of being 2 he is deciding to take full advantage.  Loved the green die, wouldn't share, and made quite the mess (all very typical).  Good thing Becca was there to save the night with some patience and attention for them.  She also brought Tangled for us all to watch!

HAPPY EASTER!!!!!!
