Easter Sunday...

We had such a great Easter this year, and we were so excited to get to spend the morning at church and then the afternoon/evening with family.

 

This is the crew before church...just love these kids...

 sadly, we did not get a family picture on Easter...I promise I was there...

 See this is the only picture of me the whole day...the price you pay for being the picture taker...

 After church we came home changed (girls didn't want to) and then headed to my aunt Linda and uncle Gerald's house.  This is our gathering place for Easter, and we love it.  We always eat a great potluck lunch and then spend the afternoon playing games and hunting eggs for the kids.  This year was a little sad, as I brought 4 of the 5 kids there hunting eggs.  It is sad to know that either the younger kids live in CA or AK, or the kids are getting older and out of the hunting eggs phase...

 This is the crew...my cousin Brandon married a girl who had a little boy, so we are so excited to have a new little guy the twins age at family gatherings now...

 Some of the kids just can't get out of hunting eggs...all the bigger kids were so nice to hide the eggs and then help the littles find them.  The sad thing is we had less kids this year, and just as many eggs as we have had in the past...280 eggs to find between 5 kids...wow!!!  I mean Carter found 67, crazy?!?!?!?!

 

Side note:  doesn't my cousin Blake look scary?  Do you know which one I am talking about?  Watch out Highfill he will get you :)

 My girls love these 2...I can't believe that in less than a month they will be graduating.  Not sure what we will do without Ashlyn picking them up everyday and bringing them home?  Wait, we have Halle :).  And let's be honest Jake is a sport to put up with these girls...
