Easter

This year we had a fun, relaxing Easter.  To start off Easter festivities I took the boys over to the mall to get a picture with the Easter bunny.  This is a picture of the picture we got:

It actually went really well since it wasn't a person wearing a bunny costume.  I think if someone would have reached out for Owen he would have lost it, but he thought the little mechanical puppet was funny.  The carousel at the mall switches out their characters for the holidays, so we rode the Easter bunny themed carousel as well:

My MOPS group had an Easter egg hunt for the kids, so I bought a robot themed Easter bucket for Jackson while Owen used a blue bucket we had at the house.  Jackson was one of the older kids there, so he dominated on gathering eggs :).  I had to have him put some back so the other kids had a chance.

Jayne and Zack (my sister-and brother-in-law) just happened to be in town over Easter weekend, so we got to celebrate with them.  We went to an Easter service with them in the morning, and then we came home for Easter brunch.  A friend of mine along with her husband and two kids also came over to our house for brunch.  Ann, my MIL, was kind enough to send an Edible Arrangement for our Easter celebration.  The kids loved it:

It was great to do something special with both friends and family on Easter, and Jack and Owen always enjoy having company over!
