I am a little late in the week with this post but I wanted to share our Easter with you. We had a wonderful, busy Easter weekend! I love Easter and I am not ashamed to admit that new Easter attire is about 90 percent of the reason why...LOL!!! I am only about half way kidding :) There are other contributing factors of course. I enjoy the food, the family and the egg hunts. I love going to church on Easter Sunday.
My weekend began with a Friday night dinner at Texas Roadhouse (a family favorite) and a last minute trip to the mall to complete Nick's and Wyatt's outfits. We had a great evening out and found pretty much everything that we needed. The only damper on the evening was that after two attempts I still didn't get Wyatt to get his picture made with the Easter Bunny. BOO! I tried, tried, tried to convince him to sit in his lap but it was no use. He ended up telling Nick that it was a "monster bunny" and he was afraid. He does have a point I guess. He is a 6 foot plus bunny.
Saturday morning me and Wyatt got hair cuts and by that afternoon we were ready for the first hunt. We enjoyed having supper at my aunt's with my side of the family followed by Wyatt and his cousins, Chandler and Merritt combing the yard for eggs. After the hunt we came home and Nick was called into work for a few hours. I spent the evening finishing my dress and purse while Wyatt played outside.
Sunday morning we attended church and spent the afternoon with Nick's side of the family where we had lunch and Wyatt hunted eggs once again. It was a lovely day finished off by a quiet supper at home.
I will leave you with some pictures and some of the lyrics from a hymn that I love :) I hope you had a great Easter weekend!
Up from the grave he arose;
with a mighty triumph o'er his foes;
he arose a victor from the dark domain,
and he lives forever, with his saints to reign.
He arose! He arose! Hallelujah!
Christ arose!
