We had a fun morning of discovering what the Easter bunny had left. The kids were so excited to see Peeps again! And hunting eggs in the house is always a good time.

 





 
 
We made it to church and sat in the very back row with lots of other people. And the kiddos did great sitting in church for 1 ½ hours; the music was really great too – they performed Handel’s Messiah and had a string section. Finley really liked singing “Hallelujah!”

   

After church we met up with our little friends Gentry and Sullivanne for some fun and funny photos near the church.

We got home a little late, and Nana (my mommy), Uncle Freddy (my brother), Aunt Sharon and our cousins Gracie, Penelope and Wyatt were waiting to have fun with us!

We ate a yummy lunch before hunting eggs. The kids got to eat at the kids’ table. I love seeing them all together, giggling and having fun. Of course I just noticed that a dinosaur puppet was also enjoying lunch at the kids’ table . . . like ya do.

 

I was adventurous and made Grandmother Mecca’s (George’s grandmother) Italian Easter Pie with sausage, prosciutto and mozzarella. The kiddos had some fun little chick cheese sandwiches. I also made George’s mom’s peanut butter chocolate eggs.



 

Of course we could have hunted eggs again and again! Later we blew bubbles; it was such a glorious day.








Ah yes, and Nana brought confetti eggs, cascarones, which were a huge hit! Grey has a crazy, “Nuke” Laloosh (“Bull Durham”) pitching style as he throws the eggs around, but we all loved the confetti!
 

 

 


 

 
 
 

Smiles and good memories all around - I sure love my family! We are a blessed bunch.
