Life is Wonderful: Easter 2014

We had such a wonderful Easter! Sophie woke us up bright and early asking if the Easter bunny had come. We tried to convince her to snuggle in bed with us for a little while longer so that we can get some more rest but she wasn't having it. So we went and woke up choosing not headed downstairs to find Easter baskets. Sophie found Josie's basket right away and it only took her another minute to find her own. They loved pulling things out of their baskets and enjoyed all that was in there. (The Easter bunny likes giving books more than candy.)

After eating candy and breakfast we got dressed and headed to church. After a nice service we went to the church hall for Joe's families Easter brunch. It's always great getting together with Joe's family. Sophie loved playing with her cousins and Josie enjoy being passed around and playing with everyone. Sophie love taking part in the Easter egg hunt and was so excited with all of the eggs that she found. Josie was just excited to get one egg to play with then put in her mouth. I am so glad that Joe side of the family is so close knit. I love that my girls get to experience that.

When we got home we all took a nice long nap. After that it was time for Easter party number two. The girls changed into new dresses and we headed over to my moms house for dinner. When we got there they each had an Easter basket waiting for them. I was excited about the Twix eggs that were in there. Yum! They had eggs hidden and ready for the girls to find. Josie is still too little to go on a hunt, especially since she still can't walk, so Sophie and Kaci went to search for eggs. They had so much fun! When they brought all of the eggs inside and dumped them on the floor Josie became so excited. She kept grabbing new ones and repeating "egg." A new word! After some more playing was time for dinner. My mom is a wonderful cook and as always the food was amazing.
