Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! We hope everyone had a very Happy Easter and was able to spend it with their loved ones. We definitely did!

On Saturday, Namma and Pop Pop (who came home on Friday night) came over for dinner.

We put carrots out for the Easter bunny just in case he needed to refuel while delivering baskets and hiding eggs. Kate broke each one in half so he could chew them easier.
We all went to bed and look what I woke up to! The Easter bunny came! The order of baskets is: Rich, Brynn, Molly, Kate & me.
The girls woke up and we all got ready for church. We came downstairs to see if the bunny actually came. Kate was worried he was going to come into her room, but I told her he wouldn't.

Here is Kate seeing her basket for the 1st time:
Here is Brynn seeing her basket for the first time. **Happy 1st Easter Brynn! **
Kate went right to opening her basket and seeing what the bunny brought her. She got so much stuff... not a ton of candy, just things she would like, like board books, bubbles, Tangled, a stuffed bunny...and lots more stuff...
Brynn went through her basket. She got a pink bunny just like Kate, some puffs, some Little People and bubbles and a stuffed rabbit.
Here is Kate opening Tangled. She was so excited. She hugged it!
Brynn and her basket with her name on it. After baskets, we went to Church to celebrate and met Namma and Pop Pop there. Kate & Brynn did so well. Everyone came over to see them in their dresses. Brynn fell asleep for a little while, but was such a good baby. We brought some toys and during the mass, I pulled out her Little People bunny. She kept saying, "dog". That's her new word :) After Church, we came home and had breakfast with Namma and Pop Pop and opened up goodies from them as well- Thanks NAMMA AND POP POP!
you have to love the little butts on the baby outfits...
After breakfast, the Easter bunny hid eggs throughout our front yard. 30 eggs stuffed with money, jelly beans or chocolate candies! Such fun!!!

Kate was on the hunt... she meant business....
She had to wear her rain boots because the grass was so wet from a storm earlier in the morning.
Kate meant business, but so did Brynn. Brynn found a few eggs on her own.
We finished the egg hunt, had lunch, naps and then Namma & PopPop came back over. We went to Jenn and Jeremy's for Easter dinner. We had a feast! Ham, Pulled pork, green bean casserole, potatoe casserole, macaroni salad, potato salad, shrimp, cherry fluff, pineapple stuffing, biscuits, and tons of desserts. I'm sure i'm missing some of the food. Everything was so delicous. Namma & Pop Pop came too and everyone had such a great time. Hoping that this will be a tradition now.

Here are Brynn and Luke. I love how Luke is holding Brynn's hand.
After dinner, the Easter bunny left Jenn a note that he hid eggs at their house. The eggs had a B, K or L on them. It was so much fun!

Here is Brynn finding her egg..
Here is Kate finding her's..
Here are the 3 babies. They played so well, and we were so happy to get this picture of all 3, with no one falling off of the steps. :)
The girls were completely spoiled and had big bags with each of their initials on them filled with goodies from Jenn, Jeremy and Luke. How sweet was that? THANKS JENN, JEREMY and LUKE!

After dinner, we came home and Namma & Pop Pop went home and Grammie stopped over to bring the girls some Easter goodies as well. THANKS GRAMMIE.

We ended our Easter watching the movie Tangled.

It was the perfect Easter filled with family and friends.

I am a lucky girl!
