...April was full of Fun- Part 2

Easter week was a special time for us this year. Steve and Debby gave us Resurrection Eggs and each morning, the girls and I would open a couple and experience the Easter story as it unfolded. It's very moving when your children begin to grasp truth.

Easter morning the girls awoke before the sun even threatened to crack through the sky, and ran out to find Pillow-Pets waiting for their loving embrace. It's the only thing they asked the Easter Bunny for and the Easter Bunny almost couldn't deliver, but the Easter Bunny persevered until the Easter Bunny came through. The Easter Bunny must know it was well worth it. Look at those sweet faces.



My sweet girls are all frilly in chiffon, curls, and accessories. I should have added gloves and a patten 'hand-bag'. Then they'd be the picture of Easter Marketing.


We spent the afternoon with some of our favorite people at the Annual Herndon Easter Bash and later at my sister's house. It's days like this that remind us of God's redeeming love. I can be confident that my little troupe will thrive in life because we are surrounded by such wonderful families. 


Families: Bridges, Holts, Rickers, Robersons, Lees, Jacksons, Herndons, Davis, Thompsons, Ramirez, Witherows, Akins, and Carters
Look at how 'lady-like' Lily Kate and Kendall are sitting!
Hunting Easter Eggs!
Kendall is fanning Bebe.
Coloring eggs with cousins, an Easter tradition carried on.
Kendall also had her first field day experience. The day started off perfect for Kendall, cloudy with a light breeze, because she doesn't like to sweat. Half way through the darker clouds started rolling in and field day was called off. She got a little activity in but never even broke a sweat. So, all in all, I'd say her field day was up to parr for what my girl would want. 


This is Kendall's concentration face.

  1. That is funny about Field Day! I couldn't be there but I know that it was right up Reilly-Kate's alley, too. She isn't a fan of the sun or bugs or sweating---make it a combo and she's done. :)
