Easter 2012...

This Easter was such a nice day to spend with our little family. I try not to go overboard with the baskets and usually just fill them with their swimming suits for the summer and some flip flops and other summer necessities. Maybe a little game or book or something. Since Ben's mom had just been in town, she got them a few things to 'put in their baskets' which, were of course too big, so they were apart from the baskets.

The first item on the agenda was to try on their new swimming suits...

Pictures of my cute kids. I know black isn't a very springy color, but it was the only color I thought went well with her dress from B-ma. :) I thought Easter was all about warm weather and spring, notice we are all still in long sleeves!

After the church clothes were ripped off the kids were immediately ready for the annual egg hunt. As you can tell, it was some serious business for the older two boys.

Love all the updates. Tucker is so cute in his glasses. Glad Ben's Mom got to visit. It's so nice to have the kids distracted by someone else for a bit:)
