A little of our Easter

 

Easter family picture. For the record - I can't stand how I look in this picture. The only reason it is 

being posted is for posterity sake when I turn these posts into a book.

We had a nice Easter a couple weeks ago, although a little less traditional. We didn't do the early-morning Easter basket thing or a traditional dinner. Church was at 8:30 a.m. and I knew Soren wouldn't know any differently if we didn't wake up early for a basket. So we decided to skip the baskets and do an Easter egg hunt after dinner with my brother and sis-in-law instead.

Soren discovering that the eggs actually have CANDY in them!

Leo is next in the discovery that the eggs hold CANDY!

Counting his spoils. No other kids to compete with (just Leo), so it was a well-filled basket.

 I was going to make a traditional dinner - roast with homemade rolls and all. Only my roast was still frozen and I forgot to make the rolls the night before. All I wanted to do was take a nap. Scott won major husband points for pointing out that it would be fine to just do a simple dinner. So I took a nap and then we had french toast and bacon for dinner. It was the best - possibly a new tradition.
