We love getting Easter baskets from Daddy & Mommy. Each year after Easter Sunday, they fill them up with goodies, hide them, and we have to find them somewhere in the house. Here we are...ready to go....

Yay! I found mine...

...Brady found his...

...and we helped Brecken find his!

We loved going through our baskets...

...getting all sorts of goodies...

...and loving everything in it!

We LOVE Daddy...

Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday...another day to celebrate our Jesus being alive! We enjoyed our day at church and spending time with family & friends. We are so thankful to God for His many blessings to us!

our egg hunt...

This year, Aunt Helen hosted our egg hunt! We had so much fun, even though it was a chilly day. We started the day with playing inside, then after eating lunch, we had our egg hunt, and then went swimming. It was 60 degrees outside, yet we still wanted to swim...purple lips, shivering bodies, and all! We sure had a fun day!!

Here I am...ready to hunt...

Brady Boy...ready to hunt, too!

On the hunt...

...and finding lots of eggs!

Brady with one of his BFF's (& cousin), McKinly!

Brady & me...

The Gang...

While we were egg hunting, Brecken was napping. So, while we were swimming, Brecken (& cousin, Easton) got to have his own egg hunt. Here he is...checking out his basket...
