Hoppity Easter!

Looking back at our past three Easters, our family has changed a lot. Our first Easter together as a family (with children) was much of a blur considering the twins were only one week old and Maddison fit in this Easter basket posted below. Keeping up with breast feeding/pumping/bottle feeding was exhausting. Who ate last, who pooped, who peed last? Oh the charting! We dared not to venture out to Easter services at church that first year since the girls were so new. Our second year was so much fun! Watching the girls spot their Easter baskets and getting into them was quite a sight to see. They tolerated the service pretty well just being almost one year old. I think all of the exciting music made it appealing to them too. This year we went to Jeff's old church. His dad and him used to go when Jeff was a child. The girls enjoyed the 2 year old room and did activities such as bubble blowing,coloring, and playing on the slide. They did not cry once when we left and we knew that was a good sign. As long as they are together, they have not had a big problem with one or both of us leaving for a bit. Jeff and I sat in on a good sermon with heart felt music and singing. I really love the contemporary style of the music and service. After church we were off to Jeff's mom's where brunch was awaiting. The girls ate so many muffins, I thought they were going to burst! They went on an Easter Egg hunt in front of Grandma's house and found treasures in their eggs. Then it was time to head home and get the girls down for their nap. They must have had a lot to process because they slept for 4 hours(normally 2)! We have had a truly blessed few years, and I hope God continues to bless our family as well as yours.
