Easter Festivites

We had a fabulous three-day weekend celebrating our Savior. On Saturday we had a busy morning with a pancake breakfast and Easter egg hunt at church. The kids love this!

Collin took off this year and went to town finding as many eggs as his little hands could grab. When I caught up to him though he only had three eggs in his basket. The poor guy must have dropped all of his eggs when he was bending over at some point! He didn't waste time though and quickly started refilling his basket!

Anna took off to an area by herself and quickly got to work!

We came home with plenty of candy!

The Easter Bunny is kind enough to go down to our basement to fill the kids' baskets and hide eggs. Here they are coming down the stairs all excited (after waiting patiently for us to let them wake Collin up)!

Benjamin is really into Angry Birds right now and was overjoyed to find this in his basket!

Her brothers keep breaking her wands, so Anna was pretty excited to find a brand new one!

Collin enjoyed looking through all of his new things, but he was so very confused. He just kept asking where the bunny was. We had told him the Easter Bunny was going to come the night before and he thought there would be an actual bunny when he woke up!

Gotta have a chocolate bunny!

Collin has been wanting his own cowboy hat (to keep up with his Jessie-loving sister) for quite some time and this one is even red (which he still LOVES)!

Three happy & blessed kiddos!

Collin thought he was pretty big stuff when he found his very own Spider Man!

After some yummy breakfast (which Dave was kind enough to make for us while the kids and I explored their basket contents some more) and plenty of sugar, it was time to get pretty for church. Anna looked so adorable in her dress!

And the boys were so handsome in their matching shirts!

I think this is one of my all time favorite pictures ever!

Collin has so much personality! Sometimes that leads to frustrating fits, but most of the time it just brings lots of smiles!!

Benjamin is seeming so much older. He really understands things now and loves reading his Bible and learning all about Jesus, which made Easter even more special!

I think this face says it all!

That afternoon we had lots of fun coloring eggs.....

We had a very blessed Easter!!
