Happy Easter!

We usually have people over for Easter, but this year it is just family (including Pawpaw and Manah) because of new baby and Daddy leaving the country tomorrow! We awoke to the living room transformed as usual, and the children checked out their baskets before mass.



After mass, we enjoyed a yummy lunch and lots of treats while the older girls stayed and sang for the second morning mass. After they returned and ate, we opened Easter gifts. Allia decided that this year we needed to draw names. So in addition to a gift from Daddy and Mommy, the children all had a gift from another family member and so did Austin and I. It was really sweet. We may just continue that tradition! After naps, we hunted eggs. What a blessing to have such beautiful weather!




We are sad that Daddy has to be gone for most of Easter week, but it is nice we have Pawpaw and Manah to celebrate with (and to help out since I am sooo not ready to run the house on my own for a week)!
