Easter Weekend: Sunday

My last regular post (not baby related) was my Easter weekend post. However, it got long and full of pictures so I figured I would just do a quick recap of the actual Sunday Easter. We got up and went to 8:30 church. Phew. That was a feat in itself but we were so glad we did. The nursery wasn't near as full for Hadley & Ascher and we were done and home before 11 am. Plenty of time for Easter baskets, egg hunts, lunch and time spent together before everyone headed home. 

After church before we changed we took some family photos.

The babies were not having being contained so we let them run free and they loved chasing each other thru the banisters on the porch.

Then I wanted to have a sweet moment with my baby girl...just the two of us. 

After pictures we let Ascher tear into his Easter basket. He was more excited/concerned that each egg had candy in it and wanted to eat it all. He must have open and re-opened the eggs (once they were empty) 50 times! Every time he'd open an empty one he'd say awww man. We distracted him with the other things in his basket though and he quickly forgot about the candy. (at least for a little while)

before digging in

candy???

the .99 slinky was a favorite of both him & Hadley

such an Ascher face

After baskets, Hadley was ready for a nap so it was just Ascher for the egg hunt. He was ok with that though (more for him..haha- plus Hadley didn't really get it yet). Ascher loved it- again was sad when he would open the eggs and there would be no candy in them.

We ended the egg hunt with some jumping on the trampoline before it was time to go inside and eat a fabulous meal prepared by Mom. She did an excellent job and we all 8 sat at the dinner room table with all the food on the table! After Ascher nap and finishing lunch, we headed home. It was a wonderful Easter weekend and a wonderful time to celebrate that thru death comes new life. He is risen from the grave!! Hallelujah praise be to HIM!
