Easter 2010

Can an Easter be blessed, fulfilling, crazy, exhausting, sweet, and fun all in one day? YES, IT CAN! As I sat here trying to capture the experience of this year's Easter in a single blog post, I realized there was simply too much to say. Clearly we packed A LOT in less than a-twenty-four-hour-span. Rather than delve deeply into this action-packed holiday, I will rather share some special moments from our day. However, stay tuned for further blogs in the coming week. Some stories can't be contained in a single blog, and some are too, too much not to share!

Our Easter started off with a traditional Easter Egg Hunt in the backyard. Since we never have time to do this after church in our festive wear, we usually do it early in the morning in our jammies. This year it was extra special to watch BOTH my kids search diligently for eggs.

Once Hudson found a single egg, he was content to play the pick-it-up-and-drop-it-game while Ava found the rest of them.....

There's always one egg left to find that drives everyone crazy, but Ava finally found it hiding in a bush!

Of course, I forgot to take my camera to church and ended up without any shots of Ava's beautiful Easter dress or Hudson's adorable sweater vest and dress pants. What kind of a PARENT am I? But at least I remembered to take it to Aunt Jenny's house for some afternoon fun.

Finally, he smiled for my camera!

We were playing hide-and-go-seek, and clearly I lost
