Easter 2009

My parents and brothers were here for Easter. We really enjoyed the visit and like always, can't wait for the next time. Honey and Boppa brought Ella a plush Bolt and she LOVED it. She hasn't put him down since she received it and only three short days later he is a nice shade of taupe as opposed to his original snow white color. Her face when she opened it was priceless.

Saturday night Daddy, Ella and Uncle Zach dyed eggs. Ella really enjoyed this activity!

Of course, we cracked a few (oops!) and she was told they were fine to eat. She didn't really like the idea and instead fed them to Boppa. She neglected to let him breathe or even chew in between bites for that matter. He said he felt like he was in a boiled-egg eating contest, we were all tickled. He was sweet to just let her do it!

Yes, Bolt went with us to church...like I said, he's gone EVERYWHERE we've been!

Our family of 3 (and a half!) Baby boy has really made himself at home ALL OVER. With Ella, you couldn't tell I was pregnant anywhere but in the belly, not so much with "junior".

Yes, she was seriously gonna climb this rock wall. Who needs hiking boots when you can dawn ballet slippers and an Easter dress?

Easter basket fun!

The umbrella and duck were most definitely her favorites!

My Easter angel...she's the gift that keeps on giving!

Easter is BY FAR my favorite holiday. The only thing better than the birth is the resurrection!!
