Easter

This year's holidays for us seem to be trending as simple but good. Easter was the same. We had no elaborate party, but it was a nice day to celebrate our risen Savior and teach our kids a little more about the meaning. I was most thankful for our time together as a family and a glimpse of good weather before it turned cold again.

Family shot. I'm pretty sure Caden will be taller than me soon.

So random I know. This was on our way home from our friend's house. I love that the guards here do such a good job--at sleeping :o)

That afternoon after naps we headed outside in our complex on our fake patch of grass for an Easter Egg hunt. Ha. Half the eggs had money and the other half had m&m's. The 2 big prize eggs had nothing in them to represent the greatest gift of the resurrection. As you could guess, they didn't get it. Caden was just puzzled why there was nothing in it. Britton looked at me like it was a stupid idea.

Here's 2 short videos. The first one is a family favorite of Grady saying 'happy.' The second is Caden discovering what's inside the easter eggs.
