Easter Morning

Easter is not about bunnies and candy, it is about celebrating our risen Savior! It is for this reason only that we are able to enjoy everything in this life. He so graciously laid His own life down so that we could be counted righteous and live with Him forever! We are so blessed, and this Easter, He revealed that even more to me!

For fun and memories and to bless the boys and Piper, Clay and I give them a basket of fun things that I think they would enjoy! I do not want them to ever focus on this as the meaning of Easter, but purely to take it as a gift from their parents of love...

Anyways, it was fun getting to give them their baskets this year. Obviously in years past they weren't able to "open" a basket. Here are some pics from the morning...

Locally Grown... in Texas

 I was so happy to be able to spend time with my cousin Hannah and her newest addition, Colton! He is a precious little buddy and we have been dying to meet him. Hannah and her husband JUST adopted Colton from Texas about 8 weeks ago! It is so fun that Piper not only has an adopted cousin (actually two), but an adopted cousin from TEXAS! Here are some pics we took of the two together...

Easter Pictures

This Easter we were in Charleston. It was so nice to be in town with all our family. My cousin Hannah was in town from Colorado with her newly adopted son Colton and Clay was able to take a few days off work so we could spend more time as a family. To my surprise, we were dressed and ready to go to church EARLY on Easter so, we stopped by my Mimi's house to take a few pictures. It is a very rare occasion for us to all be dressed up so I wanted to take advantage of the situation. Here are the too many pictures...
