Easter 2011





















I can't believe another Easter has come and gone already! The years just continue to roll past faster and faster. The kids had fun doing their eggs on Saturday. Brad's friend, Liam, came over just as we were starting and so he joined in on the fun. Ethan and I only did one egg (actually, Ava took mine too). This really is one of their favorite projects to do together and they get so excited and so lovable too. Church was wonderful as usual. Dennis was supposed to speak but didn't due to lack of time (this happened to him at Christmas time too). I again forgot to take pictures of everyone and the Easter dinner as well. We had it at our house this year. Dean and three of his girls came (Alisa kept Meg home as she has a bad cough). Shane and Rachel and their kids came as well. Dave wasn't feeling well so he didn't make it this year but Mom and Dad came and so did Joan and Clair. We had pretty much a traditional dinner with ham, potatoes (funeral instead of mashed), asparagus, rolls, two different salads, corn with bacon (Alisa's mom does the corn this way), eggs poached in ham broth, cheese (mom's favorite white Vermont cheddar), pickles, and pickled cucumbers. For dessert we had two different cakes and ice cream or rootbeer floats. WAY too much food for one meal! The kids played outside most of the time until it got too cold. It was a wonderful day!!

Love to see Rachel's kids all dressed up. The boys look like little missionaries. (Hunter may have to tame his brohawk!!) Autumn looks so pretty. I love the picture of Jake and Ava. Ava is getting so grown up. You don't have a baby anymore. SAD

Fun to see the photos...Is Hunter taller than Dillan now or is it the angle? Sounds like a wonderful day!
