Easter 2012

We had a great Easter this year!! We dyed eggs on Saturday afternoon, and it was the first year that there was no drama, tears, huge mess, etc. and it was just plain fun! Molly Kate enjoyed watching all the fun. :) We went to church on Sat. night to avoid the craaazy Sun. morning crowds, but it was still really crowded. Great service, but I was up and down with Molly Kate a bunch, since I decided not to put her in the nursery that night, so I was a bit distracted. Sunday morning we had a quiet morning at home, opening Easter baskets and letting Caleb eat WAY too much chocolate for first thing in the morning!! :) His favorite item from his basket was a new umbrella. He also got bubbles, sidewalk chalk, a new Bible, candy, and a bunch of other little things. We got MK a Bible, a cross to hang in her room, a super soft lamb that plays Jesus Loves Me, and a couple books. We got dressed and went to visit my mom so she could see them in the Easter clothes. She hid some eggs for Caleb and he had fun looking for them. Then we went over to my dad and Christy's house for the rest of the afternoon. Ate, Caleb hunted eggs, went down to the creek, had fun visiting everyone. Kelsey and Cody (stepsister and hubby) were there and it was fun to see her cute little baby belly holding my nephew! Can't wait to meet him in August. My brother and sister in law were there also, and they find out in about a week what they are having! Can't wait to find out! Molly Kate was a little thrown off by the schedule change, being in a different place, etc. but did pretty well overall. Caleb was WORN out by the day's end, and actually slept all night until almost 7:45 which is unheard of for him, especially since he went to bed at 7! Happy Easter! He is risen!!!
