this easter holiday

we hunted for eggs

and hunted

and hunted

the easter bunny had a hard time remember how many were hid. oh well...at least they are outside.

 then we tried taking pictures after church.

 the baby didn't want to cooperate

 at all

 so we let her go free

right after this picture the older girls were done too and lucy exclaimed, "let's go kill aphids!"

 so they did. my little murderers in matching pastel colors. awwwwwww.

sunday was a wonderful day. i'm always a little sad that easter isn't celebrated as much as christmas is. because my life is built on my faith in Jesus Christ. and that brings me peace. but something about this holiday's meaning seems to get lost in bunnies & chocolate. i did try to explain to the girls more than a few times how important this sunday was and why we wear our very best clothes on it.
