Easter Morning!

We had a great Easter morning and a great day at Church.  I love to go and feel uplifted and especially on Easter Sunday.  Here are the events of the day.

After a big day of shopping at Sam's, Wal-Mart and more and eating out to dinner on Saturday, we still had to come home and dye eggs after Ashton went to bed.  Here is the end result!

So this year for Easter we started a new tradition that I stole from my friend Kellee.  We took yarn and ran it from Annika's basket to her bed with tons of twists and turns along the way.  Then the kids have to twist the yarn back together in a ball from their bed all the way to their basket, it takes quite a while, but it is fun.  Next year we will do it with Ashton's basket too, but do his yarn a different color.  It was fun to help the Easter bunny put this maze together throughout the house, but it was really fun to see Ryan and I jump through it and over it to get back to our room, and get ready for bed.  Annika loved finding her basket and all the hidden eggs in the morning-Ashton liked playing in the yarn and eating candy.
This is what Annika woke up to-she called out to me, mom why is there a web in my room when she woke up-ignore the mess, as you can see from my posts, we have been crazy busy and cleaning has not been on the priority list!  


This is Ashton tangled in the web.











Here is Annika dressed for church!  Well, actually after church, by this point Ashton was undressed-sorry no picture of him.

She looks beautiful!! I find it harder and harder each year to get pics of them in their clothes! The yarn is such a cute idea. Glad you are back and had a good Easter!!
