Happy Easter of sorts!

Who knew that the pictures I took of the girls Easter Egg Hunt last Thursday would be the only Easter Egg Hunt they would have this year?

Campbell did really well on her egg hunt. Of course, her big sister had been practicing with her in the yard for a week. Kaylee did not want her to miss out or be confused when the time came. It was so fun to watch her class hunting for the eggs. You could definitely tell who had been practicing. It did not stop Campbell from each time picking up an egg, smiling, saying "egg", putting it in her basket, and waiting to be instructed to go find another one. She did not even care what was inside till she got in the car at the end of the day and saw Kaylee opening hers.

Kaylee loved hunting Easter Eggs. Of course, what five year old doesn't since they know what to expect inside the eggs. It was so funny to watch all the fours and fives running all over the place like a bunch of ants. I think the hunt was over in a matter of a few minutes. What fun! I can still remember the year Kaylee thought she was only suppose to find the eggs that she brought. That seems like so long ago now.

The rest of our weekend did not go as planned. We got snow on Saturday! I can remember one time when I was at ACU and it snowed on Easter weekend. I love snow...I just wish we had gotten enough to build a snow bunny. The easter Egg HUnt our church was having got cancelled due to the snow and 35 degree weather so we went to a movie instead. Kaylee was very excited to see Meet the Robinsons in 3D. It was a cute movie, it will not be winning any awards, but at least it did not have any adult humor or bad words in it. We spent the rest of the day enjoying family and eating way too much. (I am definitely going to have to get busy with the diet again on Monday.)

Sunday the girls wore their dresses with their white sweaters as planned. We were not going to let a little cold weather ruin our Easter attire. It was so good to be in church on Sunday morning knowing that Jesus had risen on that day so long ago. May we always remember the great sacrifice that was made for us. Kaylee came home and told me the whole story of Christ being raised from the dead. I just love to hear her tell me Bible stories in her own words. So sweet! They managed to get a lot of fun things for Easter. My parents got them each cute stuffed dogs, movies, books, and a little candy. The Easter Bunny left them some fun toys to play outside like Frisbees, bubbles, balls, jump ropes, sidewalk chalk, and also two chocolate Easter Bunnies. I would say that they were well taken care of.

Here is the best picture we got of the two of them. It definitely shows their personalities. Hope you all had a wonderful Easter full of lasting memories.
