Easter Sunday

The kids woke up Easter morning excited to come down and see their baskets.  They waited at the top of the stairs till everyone was ready.  Owen (who had slept in our chair), did not want to wake up, so we let him stay asleep.

The kids were all very excited about the things that had been left for them in the night.  Savannah got a perplexus ball, Josh got a game called "Brain Quest", Sara got some construction paper, a puzzle book, and a skip-it, Aaron got a Disney Kinect game and a writing tablet, Nate got sidewalk chalk and a grabber, and Owen got a big dump truck for the sand box.

Finally the commotion woke up Owen.  He was hesitant to come out...

But, once he come out and saw his new truck, he was happy.

Then we turned the kids loose to hunt for eggs.

And we gathered up all the candy into bowls.  We have enough to last us till Christmas. 

Then we got ready and headed to church, where we were reminded of the real reason we celebrate Easter.  What a wonderful day.
