Easter

Our first Easter as a family of 4! I was so excited to dress Allie and Sam in their matching smocked outfits (the only smocked outfit that John would let me buy for Sam). However, with the business of having 2, this ended up being the only picture of Sam with his Easter outfit. For Easter we went to our church service and then drove to Nana's for lunch and a Easter egg hunt. Allie was so funny this Easter. She has been learning about Jesus' death and Resurrection at AWANA, so we talked a lot about what Easter means. One morning, we were talking about Easter and I asked her what Easter meant. She responded quickly "That Jesus is alive!" Then she turned to me with her typically-inquisitive-Allie face and asked, in not so many words, so what's up with the Easter bunny? I totally was not prepared and blew her off until I could ask my mommy friends how to answer this question. I love this age!

Here is Allie opening her and Sam's Easter baskets.

I love being able to go to all of Allie's preschool parties. Here are some pictures of her Easter egg hunt at preschool.
