easter 2013

we had an Easter miracle right off the bat Easter morning

the first picture ever, i believe,

of all of my children looking up and smiling for a picture.

i couldn't believe it!

here are all the cousins...well almost. immediate cousins anyway. we were waiting for 2 more to show up before we let them loose in the backyard for the egg hunt.

i like how the boys have their hands so nicely around eachother.

right before they started punching one another

not the best picture... the natives were getting a  little restless.... but they are all there
really anxious to be done with pictures.

they had 158 eggs to find. not sure if anyone tallied up the results. but everyone seemed pleased with their findings.

we almost made it to church in the morning w/out S pulling out some old tights. she loves wearing tights even tho it was getting really hot. of course they had holes in them but i guess it was a good idea cause that dress was a little short apparently.
